No need for apologies, you will get the hang of it. I actually love it when people bring up threads like his because some of them I have not seen before!

Strange, I was walking to campus Tuesday and saw two little clouds intersecting that looked like a cross and I thought of this thread. Weird.

Have any of you been paying attention to the moon recently?

Do so.

It is quite astonishing. Often it seems huge and very,very clear...

I was stunned by the moon last night actually, and was showing my son. It wasn't even dark yet, the sun was still up, yet the almost-full moon was incredibly bright! It felt so strange to see such a bright moon in the daylight.

Yes, I looked at it last week and my mouth fell open. I was sure it was some kind of illusion

The moon is Our Lady's lamp according to the children of Fatima. Just sayin'.

Last week, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a huge cross filling the sky with the moon at its center, and yes, it was St. Benedict's cross.. I saw this TWO nights in a row. I'm Episcopalian, and our priest is on vacation, and after the Eucharist this past Sunday, I mentioned it to his substitute at coffee hour, and the guy walked backwards away from me as though I were a schizophrenic or a demoniac. I wonder if anyone else in the northeast saw this? I live in Northwestern CT. I was not afraid. I was awed. And now, mystified, and I cannot help but think that God is communicating something to me. Almost ten years ago, I felt called to the priesthood, but my then parish priest, told me it was not God's will. (The process to become an Episcopal priest is somewhat different than becoming a Roman Catholic priest - the bishop ultimately decides - discerns - but there is a lengthy discernment process at one's parish - usually two years - that involves both your parish priest and a "discernment committee" of laypersons. I never made it to the "discernment committee" part. Though it was the most painful era of my life, I finally accepted that it was God's will that I not pursue any ordained ministry in the Church. (I'm a writer - a theatre artist - I really thought maybe God had it all wrong when I felt his call to serve him, and yet, I did, and still do, I think. And I have been broken since - like a partial person - even though on some ;evel, I'm the l;ickiest man in the world. I've been blessed with having had opportunities to make some money; my wife loves me still. and we have a great daughter who is a rising senior in college. And I became so angry because I completely humbled myself. And for what? I'm not sure. Since that time, I have not put Christ first in my life. And I wondered if maybe that was the message - and it was that simple. CHrist is here. That's the greatest message of the Gospel. Follow him. As you all know, a life of faith is complex and so utterly unsure. But I do wonder if God is trying to convey any particular lesson or insight to me? In any event, I ask for your prayers, so I can figure out what significance this vision - this sighting - has for me with regard to the world in general and of participating in the life of Christ's Church in particular. Thank you!
