Are we following Jesus?

Just a few thoughts

·        World Suicide Prevention Day

·        For all who bring joy, hope and beauty into our lives, that they themselves will be blessed in their gracious gift-giving.  --  Let us pray to the Lord.

·        Yesterday was RUOK Day. We were able to have a coffee with a relative and have a chat with a past neighbour.

·        The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago.  The second-best time is now.  --  Chinese Proverb
