A new-found web contact sent me this today. I loved it and thought many of you would too! NO BOX There is no box made by God nor us but that the sides can be flattened out and the top blown off to make a dance floor on which to celebrate life! Kenneth Caraway

Yesterday I shared a chorus that John Beaumont heard in a vision of God’s glory. Also in that sharing he tried to describe the glory of God as he saw it and came to understand it: All I saw was radiant light, but as my eyes were open, I saw something about it. It was [...]
