But
the only sense of wonder the film instils is this: if we have to wait so long between movie musicals, who on earth thought it would be a good idea to wait for this one?
Not exact matches
How truly well put, stunningly beautiful... not
only did you express your experience perfectly but you have offered many
of us who wander and
wonder a
sense of the greater peace through the door
of love and forgiveness... acknowledging the fact that a steeple, a sermon, nor an offering plate are a requirement in finding God at the heart
of us all...
There was a security, love, and
wonder I
sensed (at an early age) that
only Catholics had ¯ the hushed, steepled churches and the priests; the parish school with veiled nuns whose black habits swept the floors; the picture
of the pope on the bedroom wall, a strange man with what looked like an eggshell on his head who gave the
sense of a wider world and eternity.
What stands out in Luke are the depth
of his human sympathies, his
sense of wonder, amazement, and joy at the power
of the gospel, his poetic insight which led him not
only to tell the Christmas story in a way that captivates old and young alike after nineteen centuries, but also to incorporate such lovely poems as the «Magnificat»
of Mary, Zachariah's «Benedictus,» and Simeon's «Nunc Dimittis.»
And our nature being thus rooted in failure, is it any
wonder that theologians should have held it to be essential, and thought that

And third, we give thanks not in order that God will know that we are thankful but precisely in order to make ourselves thankful: to help ourselves realize not
only how lucky we are in comparison to so many others (which is part
of it), but how fortunate we are just to be in this world; to help us appreciate the many blessings which each and every one
of us enjoys; to rekindle in us the
sense of wonder and awe and gratitude in response to all that we so often and so cavalierly take for granted.
It is important to note that these themes not
only mark a life that succeeds in being faithful — which is what it is all about — but these are also the ingredients we need in our lives in order to achieve a deep
sense of satisfaction and meaning, to experience joy in the
wonders of the world, and — dare I say it?
A
sense of the sacred, celebration
of the liturgy,
wonder and gratitude: these are the things in which we need to be re-educated not justfor the joy
of living in an enchanted «Liturgical City» but because it is the
only way to keep our education humane and our life civilised.
Anywhere from 20,000 to 40,000 Christian denominations are currently counted... I
wonder if
only because we have elevated the Bible over the Holy Spirit... I have found in my past circles
of friends and even with family now a
sense of Bibliolatry.
The guilt, self doubt, and worry that plagued nearly every waking moment
of my life for the past twenty five years, has been replaced with a new
wonder, a
sense of adventure, and a freedom that can
only be had when one is no longer shackled to a belief system that threatens to punish you for every human thought, word, or deed.
But aside from these assertions, I
wonder if another possibility might be entertained: that Fish is (largely) right in his exegesis
of Milton's poetry and prose, but that Neuhaus is also largely right in his defense
of a Christian liberalism (in the
sense of participating in the liberal conversation with a good conscience), but
only because in certain key respects Milton is wrong.
Charoset is kind
of like cranberries at Thanksgiving, in the
sense that I always
wonder why I
only tend to eat cranberries a few times a year.
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety
of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style
of play has become a shadow
of it's former self,
only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out
of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make
sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid
of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have
only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out
of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes
of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play
of Monreal, but none
of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio
of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes
sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points in the latter part
of last season... it always made me
wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part
of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature
of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player
of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out
of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front
of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no
sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so
only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that,
of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one
of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one
of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already
of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make
sense given the constructs
of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make
sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack
of mobility is an albatross around the necks
of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because
of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
I'm sorry you feel your marriage «failed» and I can't help
wondering if some
of that
sense of failure is because others react to divorce and if events in your past led you to believe that the
only «successful» marriage is one that stayed intact no matter what — abuse, infidelity, cruelty.

sense of wondering what can or will happen.
