Today the whole creation is watered by mystical streamsToday the transgressions of humanity are washed away by the waters of the Jordan
Today Paradise has been opened to humanity and the Sun of Righteousness shines down upon us
Today we have been delivered from darkness and illuminated with the light of the knowledge of God
Today earth and sea share the joy of the world, and the world is filled with gladness

Happy Theophany! I recommend swimming. :-)
I'll stick my fingers in the Mississippi, just for you.
A hoot, Paul -- Blessed Epiphany to you!
Love,
Jane (who finally hauled her ass to the gym but will not repent from having made and eaten some of Clumber's Whiskey Cake -- paying for it though!)
No more am I repenting of baking all those Swedish pepper cookies and eating most of them myself. Just took a tin to the neighbors. Clumber's cake sounds terrific.
Amen Amen from FranIam who has eaten more than her share of things, even if it wasn't whiskey cake or pepper cookies. Yum.
Happy Blessed Day of Discovery, Adoration and Joy. Heard a wonderful homily tonight about how the Magi were the ultimate outsiders making their way to the Lord.
wow, great technicolor. I was wondering, where should I visit just once before retiring? happy twelfth night to you too!
