Good morning

PRAYERS

O God of Heaven and earth,

What is  the meaning of life, Lord

I thought I knew it.

Life is changing,    for me,

and not for You.

More people are dying from my life 

 from Bethel, Floradale and Poole 

  relatives and friends and neighbours

it is not surprising,     

   but jarring to me.

It is what happens in life,   

 and in death.

Do we wait for death,   

 or continue to live vibrantly ,     

  under your control,           

  for you know are ‘ comings and goings ‘

As we age towards our death, 

    quietly 

   we rejoice  

   for your Presence in our life,

But, 

we want just a

few more moments, hours, days, months and years.     

   in this life,       

    before we enter the hereafter       

       the great unknown.

You have not told us much   

almost nothing,        

     I assume we just need faith,

What is the meaning of Life again ?AMEN.

Fred
