Still Voices

still voices praying silent vows look upward seeking peace humbling themselves to their God finding inner calm silently in faith, believing answers come from above as God's will experienced in daily living.

Thank you. You're going to have to get with the program, Andrea. You know I'm headed for the top! LOL. That should drive a certain person right up the wall!

This is a beautiful reflection on faithful faith Milt. Wonderful images of people stepping out in a committed life. As a pastor I am sure that you saw this on a daily basis along with the struggles. Congratulations on your win.

Thank you so much, Sotto Poet. I can't get used to your "new" name! I'm afraid I have been passing over some of your work because I am having a problem adjusting, Lasaad!
