At meditation I received the word elephant. Why? … sometimes a loud and exuberant wedding party enters the worship centre, and I think of a herd of elephants … imagine an elephant seeking the spiritual blessings a church offers …
Good shepherd, could you care for us?
We promise not to be a fuss.
Lead us to quiet waters where we’ll wallow,
to pasture, grasses tall, and we shall follow!
If I should happen to go off the track
somehow, compassionately, bring me back.
Now I can see we’re not your fold,
but will you leave us in the cold?
Psalm 23:2, Luke 15:4-6 and John 10:16
