"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner
Come in! Come in!
"If you are a dreamer, come in. If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, a Hope-er, a Pray-er, a Magic Bean buyer; if you're a pretender, come sit by my fire. For we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in!" -- Shel Silverstein

I-yi-yi-conography
Our Clumber has been a very busy pup. Painting icons, he is.
In this one, he reminds us, "Pray THROUGH the icon not TO the icon."
Good call, mate.
And THIS one leaves me speechless and unable to pray - save rolling my eyes to heaven and wishing it would go away.
He's quite a pious pup, that Clumber.
How many "Saints and Sinners" can you name?

Was that a request to be removed from the icon? We have a waiting list to be added... I'm looking for my next inspiration right now! I'm missing Jake and E and Fran and all the rest of the blogs I follow... it's gonna be a tad crowded, I think...
I've shared evensong and a meal with several of those heavenly hosts. There are a couple I would especially like to meet. Wouldn't we all?
Absolutley not, but I am looking forward to sharing my sacred spot with others. You are brilliant, my dear.
On a totally related subject, I will offer my blog space for any effort to set up some pickets to let the incursion prone they are noticed in the diocese of Chicago December 3.
FWIW

I recognize the faces.
The idea of +++Rowan as Our Lady of the Sign is .. disturbing.
Brilliant and I would have missed it. Many thanks.
