The Task

Truth is eternal,
knowledge is changeable.
It is disastrous to confuse them.

Madeleine L'Engle

Push back against the age as hard as it pushes against you. What people don't realize is how much religion costs. They think faith is a big electric blanket, when of course, it is the cross.

Flannery O'Connor

~~~~ A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray... #norfolkbotanicalgardens #pinkdogwood #cornaceae #floweringarboretum #joycekilmer #trees #springinva #cova #lent #naturefix #sundayscoming #laudatedomino

~~~~ In the morning, O LORD, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly look up. Psalm 5:3. A dear friend sent me this wonderfully compact Book of Common Prayer with Psalter and Hymnal a while back. In March, for Lent, I began starting and ending each day with the scheduled daily Psalms. It's time to start over. For April I'm adding a morning plainsong chant.🎶 #anglican #morningpsalms #bookofcommonprayer #practicingthepresence #singtotheLord #stambrose #plainsong #bcp1928

~~~~ Luke 1:46-55 My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; * for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: * the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name. He has mercy on those who fear him * in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, * he has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, * and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, * and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel, * for he has remembered his promise of mercy, The promise he made to our fathers, * to Abraham and his children for ever. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: * as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. ~~~~ #johnwilliamwaterhouse #annunciation #magnificat #songofmary #apostlescreed #anglican #studyingscripture

~~~~ The sap will surely quicken soon or late, The tardiest bird will twitter to a mate; So Spring must dawn again with warmth and bloom, Or in this world, or in the world to come: Sing, voice of Spring, Till I too blossom and rejoice and sing. ~~~~ #firstdayofspring #christinarossetti #morningwalk #neighborhood #neighborsgarden #fresh # magenta #lafayettewinona #norfolkva #poetrylovers #homeschoolmom #charlottemasonlifestyle #christinarossettipoem #christinarossettipoetry

How is it possible?

How is it that God permeates the universe, that everything that is - comes from his hand; that every thought and emotion we have - has significance only in Him yet we are neither shaken nor inflamed by the reality of His presence, but able to live as though He did not exist? How is this truly Satanic deceit possible? Romano Guardini

Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie—
True Poems flee—

O nata lux de lumine, Jesu redemptor saeculi, dignare clemens supplicum Laudes preces que sumere. Qui carne quondam contegi dignatus es pro perditis. Nos membra confer effici, tui beati corporis.
