‘White Wings’ 2009

Now that we’re into Lent the political posts will slow down to a crawl, if not cease altogether. I’ve chosen something to abstain from as well as penance, so there is a plan and I’m very hopeful it will bear spiritual fruit.

There are things I need to learn, relearn and remember.

All life is a journey, not a home; it is a road, not the country; and those transient enjoyments which you have in this life, lawful in their way,—those incidental and evanescent pleasures which you may sip,—are not home; they are little inns only upon the road-side of life, where you are refreshed for a moment, that you may take again the pilgrim-staff and journey on, seeking what is still before you—the rest that remaineth for the people of God.
