There can be times that seem like that to us when we consider situations in
Our world
Our community
Our church
Our families
Our selves
Timothy Rees wrote a hymn that talks of God enfolding all the world in one embrace, and goes on to say that when human hearts are breaking under sorrow’s iron rod, then they find that selfsame aching deep within the heart of God.
Maybe that embrace is like a parent dancing with her child, full of joy and care and compassion.
Tonight I invite you to bring situations on your heart to God, - write down if you wish – as we listen and watch a representation of that love of Godde using images – many from this land – and words from the Welsh revival of 1904 (Here is love, vast as the ocean ...)
As we pray there is a bowl in front of our burning candles. You may want to place your prayer there, and take with you a candle as a reminder of God’s love toward us.
