THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

Sadly, the New Year has started with some nasty surprises, nature can do that, the news reports about the weather with the rain, snow, being without power and flooding causing severe conditions.

Although the media is good for getting information out, seeing people’s devastating situations is heart rendering.

Many people are only just getting back to some normality from the last flooding only to find themselves back to square one.

Out of the great sadness people have rallied around to help including friends, neighbours, emergency services and people who not known to those in need.

Watching a TV program about the snowy white out in 1982 where people helped other showed that the kindness to others showed then, and that help is still there today, which is so encouraging.

We continue to pray for those who find themselves in dire need, distress or despair including those suffering from the fires in America.
