It's strength, it's courage, it's skill and preparation... it's prayer. For me, more than anything else, it was centering and grounding and being open to letting the Spirit use my instrument. There's a friends-locked post that has to stay friends-locked for various reasons, that goes into longer detail; if you're interested, I can send by e-mail or add you to my friends list.

And make no mistake - what we have now is fair enough, but it is not done yet. There is work, and mighty work, still to do...but for the first time in perhaps forever, I feel up to taking it on.
