Who do you say that I am?

 Hello Tranmere community.

Yesterday I saw a cartoon in which a boy and a horse were looking at the sky.
“Those are dark clouds,” said the boy.
“Yes, but they will move on,” said the horse, “the blue sky above never leaves.”
Not a bad way to look at God ‘s Love.

Sursum Corda!

ü  "You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space."
-- Johnny Cash

Bits & Pieces

§  Song writer Peter Kearney has posted a song called “Signs Of Hope”. Sounds like a very appropriate title at this time.
However the song was written in 1985 for the visit to Australia of Dom Hélder Câmara (1909 –1999)
He was a Brazilian Catholic Archbishop who was an advocate of liberation theology. He is quoted as having said, "When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why they are poor, they call me a communist."

Dom Hélder spoke at the Sydney Opera House in 1985 and for that evening Peter was asked to provide some music with his group 'Crossover'. The song 'Signs of Hope, based on his writings' was written especially for that occasion.
