Dying
orchidee said:
A fine write Gary. I vaguely remember the \'ages of reason\'. Is seven the final one? Seven seems symbolic sometimes.

The Call
orchidee said:
Good write Gary. There are young people in some churches I would say - \'all-age type churches\'.
But are some \'dying off\' through the physical ages of congregations, or are they \'holding on, soldering on in faith\'?
Or is it a bit of both?

Good write, and true Gary. Beginning of John\'s Gospel..... Though I might cringe if modern version used \'snuff out\'! (John 1 v.5). Same as if \'whooppee\' or similar words appear in some places in very-modern translations.

I think he went over the Ten Towns or \'Decapolis\', so it must have taken him a long time!

One In the Same Flock
Gary Edward Geraci said:
LOL! That puts us in good company Hood; with Pope Francis too; he puts himself in the “goat” category as well: asking for
ongoing prayers; referring to himself as a sinner.

A fine write Gary. Yes, a going on gradually, plodding on maybe some days. I reckon the \'try harder\' and \'go faster\' are linked to man\'s efforts to try to earn their own salvation, or trying to earn part of it. It can\'t be done though.
It\'s like trying to jump an uncompleted bridge. Whether the bridge is 50% or 99% completed, we still fall in the river by our own efforts.

I draw from this my own feelings that a true poet can write from imagination, and inspiration as well as from personal experiences - and can write in different forms - enjoyed this write Gary.

That thing that you do with your hands...
Gary Edward Geraci said:
Eyes closed, hands open, sitting, kneeling, standing, chanting - to pray is to engage in an act of communication that is uniquely and expressly human. No other creature can do it. All praise and glory to God for creating the human being as His crown jewel!

I am (was?) rather traditional. I gasped at first at someone actually praying with their eyes open! Whatever next, I thought? I\'m not so fuddy-duddy now.

I\'ve got to cut down on noise myself. Not that I\'m often in very loud situations. It does me no good - whether pop, or even too loud church music!
Seriously, as I fear something may explode in my head otherwise. Then I would be in big trouble.
