QotD
[To my Orthodox family and friends, the same joyous greeting I
gave my Catholic and Protestant readers last week:
Χριστος
Ανεστη! He is risen from the tomb;
happy Easter!]
"When my thoughts and concerns are so deep that my eyes are
fixed on the ground, like a ray of sunshine bursting through storm
clouds comes God's voice, 'Look up and see what my love has
wrought!' And as I raise my eyes, in branches far above my head
waiting to be discovered are sleepy tawny frog-mouth owls, or
mother wrens perched on wee nests, or else there'll be a flock of
black cockatoos wending their way to a nearby food source. When
the weather is grey and the roads fog-shrouded, look up at the
sky, for among the hills there'll be the trace of the first hues
of a rainbow." --
