under the radar

I fear that I'm in danger of dropping off the cyber radar!

If that happens it will not be so much because there's nothing to write - it'll be because I'm struggling to find the time to write it!

These are busy days, with a lot going on, and much that's more than suggestive of the Lord himself being at work among us here.

Today there's been the school again - a couple of times this morning, now that the schools have returned. The theme for the month is Purpose. It seems unusually appropriate!

There's been a session this evening, as well, to train up folk involved in the tasks of projecting in our worship here each week. A fair bit of time has been spent today preparing for that. Most folk think it's a simple case of pressing a few buttons now and then. Not so!

It's a definite ministry, properly understood. I want folk to see it as such. An eight-page manual now helps to explain how it works: and highlights, too, just what's involved in ministering in this way. I think that came across tonight: I hope the evening helped.

There have been a number of deaths as well. Perhaps it's the time of year.

Meeting and speaking with people in connection with these also takes large amounts of time.

I'm conscious again of just what a privileged life I lead, being able to share with these people through times of great sorrow and loss, and bring (please God) a sense of the Lord's own presence and comfort and care.

So if and when I maybe seem to fly beneath the radar of these cyber 'posts', you'll understand it's not that there is nothing going on, so much as there being almost way too much!
