The Light I've Known

Here I go again, another attempt at a blog! I hope that this becomes a place for me to post my sermons, as I have started preaching again, but I may also post other musings, thoughts and dreams. 

The title of this blog is inspired by a song called "Luminous" by the late Alice and the Glass Lake; she was from Madison, Wisconsin (my home state) and died from leukemia at age 28. This song really speaks to me at this time in my life where I have yet again pressed the Reset Button; I have started over with my dreams and mission and journey in life. After stumbling around in the darkness I yet again find myself grasping for the light.

"In the corners of every room
Through the floors
Comes the light from an open sill
Little windows
Paint the sheets of a silver moon
Make ‘em glow
This is the, this is the light I've known
So long I see it running through you 
Through you 
Oh, Love Runs through you 

One star 
One sky 
Fill up my old heart 
With new light 
I'll take all I can 
Loving in the moment 
Is something luminous 

Shimmer down from my fingertips 
Subtle warmth 
To the brim with brilliance 
Reborn 
Feel the power in every limb 
I'm not alone 
This is the this is the light I've known 
Would come along-long-long"
