In the book "LILA" by Marilynne Robinson, there are these words: "In a song a note follows the one before because it is that song and not another one."
Perhaps each of our lives are songs like none other. Notes follow notes that become songs that lead into other songs in the continuing days of our lives. Lullabies ...hymns ... jigs and reels and strathspeys ... hymns ... laments ... hymns ... serenades ... hymns ... dirges .... joyous, heaven-opening hymns. We are notes followed by other notes that become songs followed by other songs - all, in their own ways, prayers. It is all good.
"I am the Lord of the Dance," said He!
