br. patrick and his near-death experiences...
Br. Patrick:
Went back to my local church a few weeks ago and was absolutely stunned. The liturgy that used to comfort me made me want to stand on the Altar and say "YOU DON'T GET IT~!" Had to get some spiritual direction on how to deal with that. "Never cast pearls before swines..." Swines are cool; pearls are cool; but Swine doesn't know what to make of a pearl.
I was told to pray with / for the congregation and keep at it until I don't feel so isolated. I haven't been back to church since August of 2007 because of the worse back sprain of my life.
When I went into personal prayer everything was cool. When I attempted to get into the service, I'm just not the same person that I was. Better. I like that!

Today, I sat up in the Choir Loft and watched the procedings from that perspective. That's how I see the people I love in that church when I pray anyway. I'm gonna do that for the next few weeks. It's hotter than hell up there but the view is great and the choir is great. I gave a CD of Rufus and I playing "Hallelujah" to Sr. Kathleen, OP, who is a professional organist. She said she liked the original better. Then I told her that I am playing the same thing that Rufus is... All she could say was "well I don't know how you can do that..." All is GOOD~!

I guess I was really fishing for a compliment because the version she got sounds much better than the one that I posted here. I guess that I do take what she said as a compliment and even maybe a comment on her own limitations as a professional. She and I talked Sunday because I sang my lungs out with the choir. I just didn't want her to notice and she didn't. All is very good~!
You are sweet, as ususual... :-*
