Bramhall Sunset 13 July 2011 photo/simonmarsh click to enlarge

WOW. IT’S BEEN A LONG DAY. A blessed one, too. But I’m glad that the sun now bids us rest, and with such magisterially gorgeous bidding. Tonight’s sunset seems fitting close for another day in which I’ve quoted more than just a few of Methodist Minister Andrew Pratt’s glorious hymns. Life, indeed, proclaims God’s glory …

… fuelling our desire;
manifests the story
hid in wind and fire …

God of awe and wonder
speaks through such as these:
rainbow, stars or thunder
bring us to our knees.

Andrew Pratt
Whatever Name or Creed page 20

And thereafter, said Zebedee: “time for bed.”
