From
Murray
We never know what
is coming in life. I say that as I try
to cope with the shock of John's illness, knowing that it will bring back
memories for many of us of the illnesses of his wife Kath.
I went over to see John
yesterday and he is not too
bad in himself - a bit woozy from the morphine and obviously concerned for his
sons Chris and especially Richard. John
said that during his operation on Friday they had been able to remove the
cancer from his leg but they still seem to be trying find a primary site. He has had a lot of scans and thinks he might
be moved to the spinal unit on Huntsman 4 for further examination. He is pleased to have had a good number of
visitors, though at times he feels very tired so please be sensitive to how he
is feeling and the number of people there already.
There are times
when I can be quite cross with God for allowing such difficult thing to happen
to the people I love and care for , and it is good to know that I can always take this anger to God without risk of causing offence! God’s ways are beyond us but he still knows
how we feel and how we respond to the painful things that come our way. I can only conclude that God continues to be
at work even in the hard and difficult times of our lives and I continue to trust
that knowing him makes a difference to how we cope with all that comes our way.
CONFIRMATION
EVENING ON MONDAY 23RD SEPTEMBER Three people from
St Paul’s will be Confirmed this year.
Please pray for Jon, Glynis and Russell and be there to support them that
evening at St James’ Church Norton at
7.30 pm.
