“… having done Your will with cheerfulness …”
O God, the King eternal, whose light divides the day from the night and turns the shadow of death into the morning: Drive far from us all wrong desires, incline our hearts to keep your law, and guide our feet into the way of peace; that, having done your will with cheerfulness during the day, […]
More Craziness, More Accomplishments
So, at the moment, it looks like I’m able to manage only one post a week … sort of. That will have to do for the time being, as there is just a lot going on. Though I may come back and fill in some posts about things that have happened in the past week […]
