Vow day

It has been a beautiful day. My head is filled with so many deeply moving and powerful moments. Filled to the brim with smiles, emotions, conversations, good wishes. And right now, as I sit here choosing the image of the day and trying to find words to set out what the day means, there is only really a profound sense of space, wholeness, calm.

So the picture that I have chosen reflects this reality - it is an image taken from my pew in the church before many people had arrived. I was struck by the intense light, by the lines - a sense of calm that reflected in so many ways how I was feeling as the service began. A real lightness of being.

The great inner peace of then, has become an immense inner joy now.

I am off at the crack of dawn tomorrow on a flight to Toronto, but hope at some point during the day to write something a bit more substantial about this very special day, a day when God was powerfully present in every moment.
