It is hard to believe, but 2007 is about to be history, and this is our last Friday Five of the year.
With that in mind, share five memorable moments of 2007. These can be happy or sad, profound or silly, good or bad but things that you will remember.
Bonus points for telling us of a "God sighting"-- a moment when the light came through the darkness, a word was spoken, a song sung, laughter rang out, a sermon spoke to you in a new way--whatever you choose, but a moment in 2007 when you sensed Emmanuel, God with us. Or more particularly, you.
Actually Singing Owl I'd like to share a few defining moments, 2007 was full of God sightings! Lights in the darkness indeed!
1. I entered into 2007 struggling with depression, with weeks signed off work I started to do some "me" things, one of those was to visit the Shrines at Walsingham. At the Anglican Shrine there is a modern representation of the Stations of the Cross, I walked these in February, with snow swirling around me- it was bitterly cold, but I found myself at a never to be forgotten turning point.
2.Meeting both Lorna and Laura- fellow revgals ( poor Laura came at a particularly mad time in our family life!). I hope to meet them both again.
3. 
Dropping Chris, Jo and Jon at Uni and experiencing a household of two for the first 
time in 25 years. Strange but good!
(Chris is the one in the checked shirt)

4.
This may sound mad to those who have been wearing them for years, but wearing a clerical collar for the first time to take a big funeral this summer; it simply felt right- which is a bit scary!
I have just received some lovely fitted shirts from Cross Designs, so I'm getting used to wearing them now!

5.
When life becomes stressful and crazy I find God at the beach- in the wind and tide and rhythms, in the cry of the birds and the salt in air. I prefer to walk alone, and prefer the winter when the emptiness allows me to catch God's still small voice.
Bonus- learning the deep grace of letting go- for all will be well:
