Stepping Heavenward The greatest danger for most of us
is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, |
Beautiful Song
Wow. You have to hear her sing. |
| Confitebor tibi Domine in toto corde meo, | I will thank the Lord with all my heart |
| in consilio justorum et congregatione. | in the council of justice and the assembly. |
| Magna opera Domini: | Great [are] the works of the Lord: |
| exquisita in omnes voluntates ejus. | [they are] sought out in all his goodwill. |
| Confessio et magnificentia opus ejus, | his work [is] confession and grandeur, |
| et justitia ejus manet in sæculum sæculi. | and his justice remains forever. |
| Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, | His miracles were made into legends, |
| misericors et miserator Dominus, | the merciful and gracious Lord, |
| escam dedit timentibus se. | he gave food to those who fear him. |
| Memor erit in sæculum testamenti sui; | The memory of his promise will be forever; |
| virtutem operum suorum | the goodness of his works |
| annuntiabit populo suo, | he will announce to his people, |
| ut det illis hereditatem Gentium; | thus let him give that heritage of the Gentiles; |
| opera manuum ejus veritas et judicium. | the works of his hands [are] truth and justice. |
| Fidelia omnia mandata ejus; | All faith [is] entrusted to him; |
| confirmata in sæculum sæculi, | and established forever, |
| facta in veritate et æquitate. | made in truth and equity. |
| Redemptionem misit Dominus populo suo; | The Lord sent redemption to his people. |

| Sanctum, et terribile nomen ejus; | Holy and frightful [is] his name; |

| Intellectus bonus omnibus facientibus eum; | A good understanding to all of them who act; |
| laudatio ejus manet in sæculum sæculi. | the praise of him endures forever. |

No Heather! Don't Go!!!!
Just kidding, I completely understand the need to push back from the computer. I have been thinking about setting up a strict time frame for blogging and internet time. I waste too much time online as well.
I will be praying that your "internet sabbatical" is fruitful (and waiting on pins and needles for you to come back, LOL!)amlp311 - 8:18 AM - Jul. 25, 2008
I'll miss your voice...
but totally understand your needing a break. I'll check in periodically to see if you pop in from time to time. (And we can catch up on Facebook if you'll be there at all.) Enjoy your family.
Blessings!

I feel so relaxed now....
That was beautiful. I sat here and listened to almost the whole thing while I was working. Thanks for sharing.
Catching up on some of your posts - is that your d-d-d-d-og? I like dogs I know like me. I'm sure it's a sweet dog, just has the unfortunate fate of a menacing face ;)
I liked seeing all your books - Isn't it amazing how much we accumulate each year? One mom I know just said that between all the books they have and all the papers that her seven children will generate over 12 years of schooling, she feels mostly responsible for deforestation!
Jib jab is a hoot. We have squandered many hours putting ourselves in their movies. Esp. the Elf one last Christmas. I hurt myself laughing so hard.
Hope all your planning is going well and your school year starts off on a great note.

I see...
Praise the Lord for your sensitivity to the needs of life. Hope to catch you when you come back. I may be taking my own season off with our new one's arrival.
Blessings,

Hi ... I'm Heather! I have been married for ten years and am a stay at home homeschooling mom to three boys. My blog title is taken from the book 'Stepping Heavenward' by Elizabeth Prentiss. We live in the wonderful state of Wisconsin.
