LET THIS MOMENT LINGER
“I have great faith. I have hope. I have love. I have so many things for which I am grateful, but I always felt something was missing within me. A gaping hole that could not be filled no matter how hard I tried. Last night I was given the gift of grace and all doubts were swept away and the peace that now resides in me is as unexpected as it is inexplicable. I don't question it. It just is and I am thankful. Now I know truly what it means to be in the light and I never want to return to the darkness. I tried to attain this state of grace so many times, but it cannot be forced or falsified; It required no effort. All I did was let go and the transition was as easy as stepping from one room into another. There is no fear; no anxiety; no pain.” - AP
“A miracle is when the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A miracle is when one plus one equals a thousand.”

GRACE – THE WHISTLIN' DONKEYS
A lady full of grace
is a beautiful creature to behold
she radiates the milk of human kindness
she is the greatest story every told
her eyes light up the darkness
her smile encompasses all
and in the depths of Winter
she warms the coldest soul
her step is light upon the ground
her footprint is so small
but her heart is big and full of love
she is the greatest of us all
graceful; elegant; sublime
she lights the way to goodness
she's pleasant; charming all the time
the epitome of beauty and gracefulness
I've only bathed within the light
of two people who were like her
I felt the gentle touch of angels
the peace descend upon me
last night a strange thing happened to me
the worst thing in many ways
I fell into a trance of sorts
felt a calmness in a daze
I thought it was a kind of seizure
the kind that bad news brings about
but the Lord works in mysterious ways
and he let me know what it was all about
I thought the peace would go away
perhaps in a little while
but it is still with me on this bless-ed day
a miracle lights up my inner smile.
