Opportunity to share begins
Continued from page 13
the most important thing for
humans is the sense of touch - chil
dren in orphanages without people
to touch them will actually curl up
and die. It is a universal need that
often is acknowledged too late -
instead of going to see Aunt Jane in
her small apartment, because we
are too busy, we will go to her
funeral and acknowledge her
daughter with a hug and a tear.
Aunt Jane would have liked that
hug too and, maybe, appreciated
the irony that while we were too
busy to go and see her we found the
time to go to her funeral.
To touch the hem of a garment of
Jesus would bring healing and a re
newed life, we are told by the
Gospel writers. And it is richly evi
dent that any contact with Jesus
brings new avenues for growth and
for caring. We know from Him that
the most important thing in life is
not a full social calendar but “Love
one another”. We will never hear
from our Creator “Sorry I’m too
busy now, let me get back to you”.
God is with us always - at all times
- and his love of us can be mirrored
in our reaching out to others.
The vacation is over but the
opportunities to share are just
beginning. We all have busy lives
but I hope we will never be too
busy to hear the call of need, be it a
child or an adult, and respond to it
with compassion and concern. It
doesn’t need to be a high tech tool
that we give but rather the loving
touch of a caring friend and we will
ail continue on our journey with
thanksgiving and joy.
Safe harvest season. Watch for our
farmers on the roads. They need
their space. The Huron Perth Safe
Farming coalition asks you to stay
alert and stay safe.
