The Die is Cast

The die is cast,
the stage is set.
Last minute rehearsals
before the final act.

35 days, each day numbered and counting. 4 nations, 6 flights in between. Beautiful peoples I will meet, God's purposes to fulfil. Only grace to carry me.

Oh, to shake off that feeling of doubt and unbelief!
Oh, to have more of You and less of me!

Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden!
Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter!
spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
(Théoden King, The Ride of the Rohirrim, Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkien)

Out of doubt, out of dark to the day’s rising
I came singing in the sun, sword unsheathing.
To hope’s end I rode and to heart’s breaking:
Now for wrath, now for ruin and a red nightfall!
(Éomer, The Battle of the Pelennor Fields, Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkien)

Forth, Éorlingas!
