The Rev Isabel Dowlen
Dear friends, once again we have come round to what for many is holiday season.
For some it means rest and relaxation but, for many of us living in such a beautiful area, it means entertaining guests and making it possible for our friends and relatives to enjoy their break and their time with us.
We all need that quiet space and the opportunity to fill it with beauty.
So often our Lord emphasised the beauty of nature.
It gives us the opportunity to listen to our hearts and find and enjoy those things in life that are really important to us.
This prayer shares this sentiment
Lord, help us to make time
time to sit quietly, moving into your presence;
time to pray in gratitude for all we have and for all you have done;
time to bring to you all those needs and concerns that keep us awake at night.
Lord, help us to make time
time to see the beauty of the world and the skills and
talents of its people;
time to spare for others who need a listening ear or a word
of encouragement;
time to work for the kingdom that we pray will come.
Lord you have given us a lifetime of time
Help us to make time. Brian Hudson
Happy holiday season to all
Love, grace and peace
