I think we should all sing a hymn. This is one of my faves:
Think of a world without any flowers, think of a wood without any trees, think of a sky without any sunshine, think of the air without any breeze: we thank you, Lord, for flowers and trees and sunshine; we thank you, Lord, and praise your holy name. Think of a world without any people, think of a street with no-one living there, think of a town without any houses, no-one to love and nobody to care: we thank you, lord, for families and friendships; we thank you, lord, and praise your holy name. Think of a world without any worship, think of a God without his only Son, think of a cross without a resurrection only a grave and not a victory won: we thank you, Lord, for showing us our Saviour; we thank you, Lord, and praise your holy name. Thanks to our Lord for being here among us, thanks be to him for sharing all we do, thanks for our church and all the love we find here, thanks for this place and all its promise true: we thank you, Lord, for life in all its richness; we thank you, Lord, and praise your holy name.
Those of us who read these post are probably all of the same, depressed, hopeless, lonely, and suffering some type of physical or emotional pain. I would just like to tell those who are listening I DO CARE. I read your posts and it saddens me to hear all of you in some sort of pain when there is nothing I can do. But from the stranger writing these words, I wish I could help each and everyone of you.

Rhodes?
I meant those .
Yeah, but people might have thought you meant the Greek Island and taken this entire post out of context.
At least that’s that problem solved!
So, I’m reconsidering…
