Last few days of summer warmth - early morning still and warm - a hint of autumn in the air.......

Pause to reflect on the loneliness.....pain......heartbreak......Gethsemane.......

......Warm hazy days as summer fades into the mellow autumn.......

.......time......has run out......

.....fly through the air.....feel the breeze blow through your hair.....swing higher and yet higher....swing low.....swing slow....

....the air is clear.....the sky is blue....the stream is flowing....breathe deep....

Uncertain times...the path of life feels eroded....yet there is hope....light...movement

Anselm of Canterbury (c.1033-1109)

Anselm was Archbishop of Canterbury from 1093.   He wrote extensively, systematic works, prayers and meditations and letters.   …… “I do not seek to understand that I may believe, but I believe that I may understand: for this I also believe, that unless I believe I will not understand”……

When I read the Prayer of St Anselm I had to make it into a song, the words are simple yet profound…

Thanks to Deb for singing this so beautifully.

Maybe your mountain top is to close your eyes and rest in His presence.

Maybe your mountain top evades you when the weather of life closes in around you.

Be encouraged, go step by step.   Even if you do not get far up the mountain, let it be an intentional choice to get on the mountain.
