Three Star Night: July 2009

Lay it All Down

Thy merit imputed shall absolve them who renounce their own both righteous and unrighteous deeds.

The result of a lifetime of pessimism.

My heart should be uplifted, but it's weighed down by Reason.

The darkness shall be the light, and the stilness the dancing

Is love the greatest because it requires the other two? Love proceeds from hope. Hope from Faith. All from God.

Because nothing is free

When I feel it costs me too much to hope, I remember how much it cost Him to give me the option.

Photographer: Special thanks to K. Tuck of http://www.sxc.hu for use of his photo. Take a look at the full photograph; it is absolutely stunning.

Housekeeping Note: Posts for the week of 6/13 were skipped because my apartment had Internet issues.

Heavens' Declaration

I know it's pretty, but a sunrise is never just a sunrise. Don't miss the joy.

Boast

God's infinity became encapsulated in human form...allowed the flesh to die as the Spirit accepted the other Death and rose three days later. That's kind of insane.

Reasonableness

Rejoice always.
