beloved GiantsThank you, cher David. You made me cry, but that's okay. I've been teary throughout the day anyway.
as corny as it may sound,
sitting here, having given heart-felt thanks for the life, ministry, and brave articulate example of our Kirstin
i'm very mindful of what an extraordinary circle of grace and faithful lives we've all been a part of in accompanying our treasured friend
our loose, loving interconnectedness via the internet, which has been a source of grace/love/prayers/strength and support to so many over the years, and the incredible network which grew to surround our Kirstin-
'by their fruits' Scripture tells us- and i can't help but feel that what the Holy Spirit works/worked through this blessed interconnectedness says something of how/where our Church is called to grow.
so this morning, i'm deeply, profoundly grateful for each one of you - remembered by name, with gratitude and love
I am sending out one great Montreal hug- a group hug, in dear Kirstin's honour as we hold the memory of her, her life and example close to our hearts
and strive to live Life even more intentionally, more......... unconditionally present in our slow waltz with Ruach, all to G-d's greater glory.
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Group hug))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
thank-you my beloved Giants
love always-always Love
David@Montreal
Love to you.
I'll drink to that!

I have thought alot about connectedness with the death of known loved ones and unknown ones like Kirsten. I am touched by the prayer requests, and, even though I don't post a comment, I pray. Keep watch dear Lord....
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mimi, for keeping the place open for---something that I am not sure I can name.
amyj
JCF, me too!
ReplyDeleteamyj, I'm not sure I can name what's going on either, but the "loving interconnectedness" that David speaks of, the "grace/love/prayers/strength and support" crosses miles and boundaries and is very real to me.
JCF and amyj and anyone else who joins us, I say thank you for being part of whatever good thing it is that we are.
Had to stop by to give you (and David and all) a big *hug*... Thank you for sharing David's letter, Mimi.
ReplyDeleteThank you, David (and Mimi, of course), for these lovely words. I don't understand all this, but I FEEL it - thanks be to God!
ReplyDeleteJane R, hugs back to you, m'dear.
ReplyDeleteSimplySuzi, when I've asked people to pray for me or mine, I've "felt" the effects of the prayer, too, TBTG.
