In gratitude of soulish friends...

Thomas R. Kelley (1893-1941) was a Quaker missionary, educator, speaker, scholar, and author of two volumes: A Testament of Devotion and The Eternal Promise, both published after his death. In the former volume of essays, Kelley wrote of relationships within "The Blessed Community":
"When we are drowned in the overwhelming seas of the love of God, we find ourselves in a new and particular relation to a few of our fellows. The relation is so surprising and so rich that we despair of finding a word glorious enough and weighty enough to name it. The word Fellowship is discovered, but the word is pale and thin in comparison with the rich volume and luminous bulk and warmth of the experience which it would designate. For a new kind of life-sharing and of love has arisen of which we had had only dim hints before. Are these the bonds of love which knit together the early Christians, the very warp and woof of the Kingdom of God? In glad amazement and wonder we enter upon a relationship which we had not known the world contained for the sons of men. Why should such bounty be given to unworthy men like ourselves?
"By no means is every one of our friends seen in this new and special light. A wholly new alignment of our personal relations appears. Some men and women whom we have never known before, or whom we have noticed only as a dim background for our more special friendships, suddenly loom large, step forward in our attention as men and women whom we now know to the depths. Our earlier conversations with these persons may have been few and brief, but now we know them, as it were, from within. For we discern that their lives are already down within that Center which has found us. And we hunger for their fellowship, with a profound, insistent craving which will not be denied" (A Testament of Devotion, pp. 51-52).
Seriously, do you have any idea of what "warp and woof" means?
What do your most cherished relationships among men and women suggest of your relationship with the Father?
What relationships would you like to cultivate?
What relationships would you like to celebrate?
