March Fourth

O GOD, the Source of perfect blessedness, who dost teach Thy faithful ones to walk in Thy laws, to search Thy testimonies, to keep Thy commands; grant unto us, we beseech Thee, Thy righteousness, that we may seek Thee with our whole hearts; that we, who hither have wandered like lost sheep, restored by Thy kind arms, may rejoice in the glories of Paradise, through Jesus Christ Thy Son - Amen.

-- SARUM BREVIARY, A.D. 1085

  1. Oh the little birds in the wood is a very sweet photograph and I think of birds and divinity as belonging together. Is it because they are both "up in the air"? Mmm. Dunno. Winged creatures, oftentimes? Good guess, but not sure of that one either.
    Does it matter? I think neither would mind being associated with the other.
    Thank you.
