“The prayer preceding all prayers is, ‘May it be the real I who speaks. May it be the real Thou that I speak to.’” ~C. S. Lewis

Yes, the real me stretching my arms out, open palmed and the tears unwillingly salting my eyes. The old farmer with his dirty boots, standing on the worn puncheon floor. The worshiper that Jack saw at vespers. I am undone and weeping with joy that it has happened; again.
