Morning Has Broken.



























It is now seven years since his death ...

VENI CREATOR SPIRITUS
______________________


Veni Creator Spiritus, Mentes tuorum visita Imple superna gratia Quae tu creasti pectora.

Qui diceris Paraclitus, Altissimi donum Dei, Fons vivus, ignis, caritas, Et spiritalis unctio.

Tu septiformis munere, Digitus paternae dexterae, Tu rite promissum Patris, Sermone ditans guttura.

Accende lumen sensibus, Infunde amorem cordibus, Infirma nostri corporis Virtute firmans perpeti.

Hostem repellas longius, Pacemque dones protinus: Ductore sic te praevio, Vitemus omne noxium.

Per te sciamus da Patrem, Noscamus atque Filium, Teque utriusque Spiritum Credamus omni tempore.

Deo Patri sit gloria, Et Filio qui a mortuis Surrexit, ac paraclito, In saeculorum saecula. Amen.

English Translation.


Come, Holy Spirit, Creator blest, and in our souls take up Thy rest; come with Thy grace and heavenly aid to fill the hearts which Thou hast made.

O comforter, to Thee we cry, O heavenly gift of God Most High, O fount of life and fire of love, and sweet anointing from above.

Thou in Thy sevenfold gifts are known; Thou, finger of God's hand we own; Thou, promise of the Father, Thou Who dost the tongue with power imbue.

Kindle our sense from above, and make our hearts o'erflow with love; with patience firm and virtue high the weakness of our flesh supply.

Far from us drive the foe we dread, and grant us Thy peace instead; so shall we not, with Thee for guide, turn from the path of life aside.

Oh, may Thy grace on us bestow the Father and the Son to know; and Thee, through endless times confessed, of both the eternal Spirit blest.

Now to the Father and the Son, Who rose from death, be glory given, with Thou, O Holy Comforter, henceforth by all in earth and heaven. Amen.

My Simple Prayer to My Father In Heaven.
_______________________



My Father in Heaven, Creator of Heaven and earth, Father of my Saviour Jesus,

Blessed be Your Holy Name.

May Your Peace be upon all Believers.

May Your Will be done in all matters.

As a widow, I ask for nothing but good health, and strength. I also seek your Blessings upon other Believing widows.

My life is in Your Keeping, for I both Love and Trust you and only You for You are my Father, and Your blessings flow upon me and enrich my soul and spirit.

I thank you for all blessings through the seven years of walking alone. I Praise Your Holy Name, and You Divine Being.

Forgive me my sins as I forgive those who sin against me. See me not led into temptation but deliver me from the evil of the world.

I bow before Your Might and Majesty Holy Father of Heaven and Earth for You are my Love. And Your's is The Kingdom, and the Power, and The Glory. Forever.

This simple prayer I offer humbly at Your Feet in the Name of Your Most Precious Son, and My Lord, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

    You have accomplished much in the seven years and grown stronger. I believe he would have been very proud to have seen what you have accomplished.

    Dominus Vobiscum B!

    He would have been very pleased with your photography B as it is beautiful and he loved your talents.

    Yep ... I love Gregorian Chants Pat.

    Yep ... he would have been happy to have allowed me to do my own thing with photography the same as I was happy with him doing anything he loved.

    I dunno if he'd have liked the computer much though ......

    I believe he would have been so so about a computer but would you have had one if he had lived?

    Hi Hon!
    Heck no, no way in this world!

    Listen Den, will you please allow someone to have your phone number so that I can phone you?

    I like to check back to see if you have answered and the answer to your question regarding my private phone number is no.

    Look, that's fine. I understand you are paranoid about allowing anyone to have your phone number.
    Heck! I wouldn't have a Silent Number at all if it weren't for those Tele Marketeers!
    So don't worry about it.

    Received your snail mail today!
    Catcha tomorrow.
