People
of God: return!
You
are called to be God’s own.
From
the mountains announce the good news.
God
comes in justice and peace,
to
all who follow his ways.
You
are God’s children.
Lord,
make us one in the peace of Christ
today
and for ever.
Amen.
…to
all who follow his ways…
With
a week to go to Christmas, a small army of volunteers has completed the goal of
delivering a Comfort and Joy bauble to households and businesses across the
whole parish. Some have gone alone; others accompanied by a dog, a friend, a
spouse, children, or grandchildren. All on foot, walking the neighbourhood.
Those
who would follow God’s ways must travel at God’s pace: and that pace is three
miles an hour, at most; walking in step with the slowest member of the party,
often the youngest or oldest; stopping frequently for conversations with those
who cross our path; yet with a considered determination to keep going until the
vision is accomplished.
Keep
going. We’re getting there, slowly.
