Revd Nikki's Thoughts

Is it June already?

​It is ascension as I write this. Someone posted saying ‘Ascension is when Jesus goes to work from home!’ Very fitting for the season we find ourselves in. Jesus leaves his humanness behind to become fully God again. Or does he? I am not so sure. We are all part of our experiences the good and the difficult, they help build our understanding of the world and ourselves within it.  I think Jesus took ‘us’ and his experience of humanity back into the very heart of God and it grew God’s heart. 

St. Augustine of Hippo said that God, as Trinity (the three in one), exists eternally as a community of love.  And we too are part of this community of love, with God and with one another. 
​
These times have shown just how interconnected all of humanity is, and how the beauty of a community of love can play out between neighbours and between strangers. A holy dance indeed, long may it continue.
 
Blessings,
 
Nikki

It was a baby mosquito's first day to fly out from home.
When the mosquito came back home later that day, the father mosquito asked, "How was your journey?" The baby mosquito replied, "It went great. Everyone was clapping for me!"
