Mornings with Mary: The Annunciation- Stained Glass Window

"Hail, Mary,"
Gabriel greets her.
She responds.

Her fearless reply,

cheered with a rainbow

dear nonnie,
i love how the coloured light from the stained glass window seems to fall generously in rainbows on the pages of your open book. may colour and light fill you like manna and the warmth of that assurance hold you tight!

your posts always have such a feeling of tenderness about them - something elusive that one just gets a whiff of - so beautiful. I love that rainbow on the meditation page. May your meditations all be filled with rainbows, Nonnie!

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs.

That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
