SHE’S THE PATIENT YOU STILL DON’T KNOW YOU HAVE

The world’s weighing heavy on shoulders too narrow

Her hopes they are low now, her dreams they are shallow

With words left unspoken she says as she sees

And tells herself lies that she thinks she believes

.

Too anxious to ask for the help that she needs

She follows the path where her hopelessness leads

Desperate to stray from her way that’s she’s making

Still she continues the steps she’s mistaking

.

And so all alone through the darkness of night

She sits on her own, out of mind, out of sight

The world still keeps turning, life’s passing her by

Leaving her nothing but tears in her eye

.

And yet there is someone who beckons her still

One who’s not left her, one who never will

His yoke it is easy, His burden is light

And He promises rest, and to make things all right.

Nothing particularly interesting to say about myself other than after 27 years working as a GP, I was delighted, at the start of December 2023, to start work as the South West Regional Representative of the Slavic Gospel Association (SGA). You can read about what they do at sga.org.uk. I am also an avid Somerset County Cricket Club supporter and a poor example of a Christian who likes to put finger to keyboard from time to time and who is foolish enough to think that someone out there might be interested enough to read what I've written. Some of these blogs have grown over time and some portions of earlier blogs reappear in slightly different forms in later blogs. I apologise for the repetition. If you are involved in a church in the southwest of England and would like to hear more of SGA’s work, do get in touch. I’d love to come and talk a little, or even a lot, about what they get up to!.
