Emotional purity?
Yesterday YLCF published the first thing that I've written a long time... -
A pattern of beauty
"Out of the night there came to him the realization that man while still in the body cannot look upon pure spirit, for the white circle of transcendent beauty would strike him blind, he can apprehend it only when its light is split into colored fragments by the prism of his own senses. And if it is his senses that apprehend these colored fragments ( Read more... ) -
Seasons of blogging
I well remember when I first started this blog about four years ago. I was a very young nineteen and full of high hopes of blogging several times a week. My idea of what a blog should be was an up-to-date account of the doings of my life, interspersed with random musings and such.

This past August, I wrote ( Read more... ) -
"Shelter"
Shelter
Sandra McCracken
In the arms of a good Father
You can go to the deep water
Where the questions, we have left unspoken
Come out in the open
We will find shelter here
So I lay down, what I cannot hold in my hands
Every sorrow and hope spinning out of control
And here I find sweet resolution comes in letting go
And we will find shelter here

An explanation
As is apparent, I've been a little preoccupied in the last couple months and have rather abandoned this poor little blog. Well, I have a very good reason...
"But as it is written: 'Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.'" ~1 Corinthians 2:9
