Questions About Angels"Of all the questions you might want to ask
about angels, the only one you ever hear
is how many can dance on the head of a pin."

ReplyDeleteTwo weeks ago, our Bible study group did an interesting short study on angels and it was really all so interesting...coffee with angels...I like that very much!
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled upon your blog, and I love it! My husband and I--both big Billy Collins fans--visited Vienna last November (we got to Salzburg in time for their Christkindlmarkt). I had never been to Austria before, and now I can't wait to go back in summer 2012 with his choir! Thank you for sharing your photos and verse.
