I really like Brian’s post over at The Beautiful Heresy. He was so kind to take time to describe his impressions of his time at the Grace Gathering.

Be sure to check it out here.

Hearts of fire creates love desire
Take you high and higher to the world you belong
Hearts of fire creates love desire
High and higher to your place on the throne

We’ve come together on this special day
To sing our message loud and clear
Looking back we’ve touched on sorrowful days
Future pass, they disappear

You will find peace of mind
If you look way down in your heart and soul
Don’t hesitate ‘cause the world seems cold
Stay young at heart ‘cause you’re never (never, never, ..) old at heart

That’s the way of the world
Plant your flower and you grow a pearl
A child is born with a heart of gold
The way of the world makes his heart so cold

Earth,Wind & Fire

If you haven’t seen the movie Chocolat, may I recommend it to you. It is the story of the struggle that takes place between a free-spirited lady who opens a chocolate shop in a small village in France at the beginning of the season of lent, much to the chagrin of the local religious folk who hold so fast to their tradition.

The heart of love and caring that she shows to others is contrasted to the coldness of those driven by tradition and the need to manipulate for selfish purposes due to their own insecurity.

There is a point though, when the young priest sees through the hypocrisy and delivers a challange to the people on the importance of realizing that it is not in what we deny ourselves that matters in our life and it is not in whom we exclude but it is in whom we include and give love.

Good movie.

This was the second day of Grace Gathering 2007 and it will stand forever in my heart as one of the most inspiring days of my life.  I looked into the eyes of fellow travelers from several parts of the country and I saw God.  I saw His perfection, I saw the treasure, I saw the love, I saw the Christ. 

It is now 12:13 AM and I still can’t sleep.  My body is exhausted, but I am filled with such a peace that I knew I had to attempt to put into words what is overflowing from my entire being.  What are the words?  What are my thoughts?  To answer those questions requires of me a lanquage that only God speaks.  There are no human words, and yet my eyes have seen the glory of what fills us all. 

I look foward to what lies ahead.  I look foward to a walk with God that includes every single human being that lives on planet earth.  The clouds are rolling back and perfect blue sky is giving me a clarity of vision that is beyond what my physical eyes can see.  All of this is more then I ever dreamed or asked for.  What more can the Father possibly show me?  That’s why I can’t sleep……..my anticipation of what might be revealed next is like my grandchildren on Christmas day waiting to open the next present. 

Yes, I see God, and the most wonderful thing about this is that He has always been there for me to see Him, just as He is for everyone else.  He has never been far from any of us and He will never let us get beyond His reach. 

I thank God for the gift of teaching that He has given to my friend Mike Williams, and I thank Mike for choosing to use it.   Oh, what a foretaste of Glory Divine, Oh, what peace that will always be mine.  I know who I am, I have looked into the depth of my soul, and it is good, very good. 

Amen, and love to ALL.

WOW!

What a GREAT first night!
