I dream of the moment when I most humbly stand before
The Savior where I remain completely captivated
with a singing heart and glistening tears of joy
are streaming down my cheeks. At the same
time, I know that I'll be paralyzed from
the beauty and pure amazement of our
adorned King who has and will
continue to command each and
every relational aspect
of this spirited
universe as
it is known
to each
of us.

Hello there my friend. Nice to hear from you again. Thank you for your kind words.
Are you ready for the holiday season? How did another year fly by? My son just hit me in the head with a paper airplane....ooyyy...not a moment of peace!!!!
Julie I am definitely not ready for Christmas in the shopping way, but in spirit yes. I am very fortunate this year as I have BOTH of my children with me. I have a wonderful husband and a loving family. There will be a great deal of kidding and giggling and plenty to eat. What more could anyone ask for? As I watched my children trim the tree this year, it occured to me they are truly my greatest gift. We have been separated for four years, so this is an important year for me. Plus I have adopted a future son-in-law who fits in so beautifully with us as a family. If you have watched Billy Crystal in the movie where he and his friends visited the dude ranch, they refered to everyone needing one (1!) important thing in life to keep them going. Well, family is definitely my one thing. God bless you and yours for the holiday and all of those at Wondersmith.

There are so many beautiful features on this planet that we all take notice of ...what will it possibly be like to see Him? Every cell trembles.
If there are views here that are breathtaking and star clustered galaxies that are positively incredible , what will it be like to see Him in Heaven? Everyday we are closer to knowing and that's
pure comfort to my soul and yours and many others!!
Far grander fates and reunions await us, of that I am sure. However, to hold one insignificant acorn, and actually feel the power potential that lies therein. Most of them are eaten or rot away to feed the ground but it only takes one to start a new forest of oaks that thrive for hundreds of years, bearing millions of similar fruits and offering us meagre humans the very breath of life.
An acorn is, (as Alice would say), akin to a smile to a stranger or the offer of a helping hand.I don't ignore war, poverty, crime and cruelty but sometimes, even within such dastardly worlds, there are elements of pure, unadulterated, pristine beauty and mystique. There is always also the genuine possibility, they could all be brought to an end, maybe with the power of an acorn or a smile to a stranger. Only needs faith eh? (eh? - as Alice would say).
