In loving memory of a soul departed


When I wonder upon that which you see, I am infinitely envious. For to be glorified in everlasting communion with our God is a sublime vision full of beauty far greater than the genuine delicateness of your kind and gentle heart.

Pure religion throws off old stuffy tradition because it wasn't from the heart, or at least that's what I was told. Well, here I am, 27 years of church later and this is the first year that I will consider Advent leading up to Christmas. I was particularly moved by today's reading according to the Revised Common Lectionary out of Psalm 40. Psalm 40:11-13 (TNIV) pierced me deeply, as an arrow through the heart.
