       Come, O Dancing God,

      Spirit of Life and Love,

      of  Beauty and Diversity,

      stir up my soul,

      and be light for those around me

      and reflect your love to all that I meet this week.

      Kameran ready for his baptism Saturday.   Before the baptism, I look down at Kameran to see that he not only has an iPhone open in his had, but he is looking for a particular app with his finger.   He barely knows how to walk and already can operate an iPhone.  Just like when we were kids, yeah.

      Rosemary's Blessing: 

      Slow me down, Lord; I am going too fast,

      I can’t see my brother as he goes past;

      I miss a lot of good things day by day,

      I don’t know blessings when they come my way.

       

      Slow me down, Lord so I can see

      More of the things that are good for me;

      A little less of me, a mile more of you,

      Let Heavenly atmosphere trickle thru,

       

      Let me help a brother when the going’s rough,

      When folks work together, things aren’t so tough;

      Slow me down, Lord; so that I can talk

      With more of your angels … slow me down to a walk.
