Guest guest Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Bruce, thank you. Another " green " gem. Reminds me of a dream I had. In the dream a voice told me to wake up and look at my computer screen. (This had a completely lucid quality.) I did - on the computer was typed: " Channeled by St. of the Cross. " Then the words typed out on the screen and I read: " From this day issue forth thine own Self be borne.

" or " From this day issue forth thine own Self, be borne. " ? In either case, I like it. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
