Beautiful. Soul filling.<br /><br />Penelope, your words contain a a measure of insight, depth of spirit, wisdom, . . . so many qualities . . . that are a rare find and such a generous measure. I am so thankful my friend "introduced" you to me. If I had a highlighter I could have used on your posting there are many parts of what you had posted I would have colored in yellow. :-) As I read this book on my Kindle, I will be adding many more "snippets" to my snippet collection on my Kindle. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing.<br /><br />Deb, Fort WayneDeb D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15667732964425801280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-88562867706632697952013-01-06T15:44:34.635+00:002013-01-06T15:44:34.635+00:00:0) Did any of us ever tell you about that rather...:0) Did any of us ever tell you about that rather wonderful Taize service Rog & Carol did at St George's out at Brede where we managed to set fire to the carpet?

Regardless of what we believe about the afterlife, I was thinking that no matter what, we cannot end life with the same physical body we started with, it changes, it becomes scarred, it eventually must either be fatally injured or terminally sick. So if we were in any way resurrected it would surely be in a "pick your best moment" kind of way. Not sure how that logic relates to the soul, but all of this is coming together to produce interesting thinking-material for me!<br />And thankyou for the song, it was perfect. I love Taize singing, and wish I could experience it first hand!<br />Not even going to tell you what the verification code said to me. It was complimentary, but rather indecent!

Do you remember the saying of Jesus, 'Be ye perfect even as your Father in heaven is perfect'?<br /><br />That perfection is achieved ( think) not by moral effort but by being healed, re-membered; it is the condition of shalom, of being made whole. xPen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-11628566074193268952013-01-05T08:35:26.832+00:002013-01-05T08:35:26.832+00:00It is perfect this remembering.

I enjoyed it as thoroughly as I had all the previous books in the series. Each book "spoke" to me at the time I read it.<br />The stories of William and John are so powerful and true. And the way you worked out how they worked things out did not simplify the ongoing challenges and struggles.<br />I will refer back to this excerpt and others. I am sure.<br />Thank you.<br />Roberta Desallehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02979683290822220436noreply@blogger.com
