I am going to be away for the next three days and guess that my blogging will slow or disappear as I am not sure whether I will get internet access anywhere.

I will live in hope of finding a stray wifi signal to piggyback on – but if not I will blog on my return – have a good few days.

I leave you with this favourite thought (there are so many) from the Northumbria Community, although slightly adapted:

Seven times a day as I work in this hungry place,
I ask, ‘Lord, why am I here?
What is there here to stir my gifts to growth?
What great thing can I do for others?
Am I stuck to just this forever?’

And seven times a day you answer me:
‘I cannot do without you
Once, my son lived your life
By his faithfulness he showed my mind
my kindness
and my truth to those around him.

But now he is back with me
And you must take his place.’
