Luke from the Saint John's Bible

Jason Engel said...: I have several photos of the frontispiece & incipit of Luke from the Heritage Edition of the Saint John's Bible from various angles to capture the wonderful way light and movement bring this illumination to life. It is very easy to spend a long time looking at just this page.; January 3, 2014 at 7:21 AM

Prayer of Thomas Merton

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think that I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road, though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always, though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.
