After a reasonable start to this morning’s walk, the rain started to come down heavily, and after a while there were some pulses of wet, flollopy sleetiness (neither of these completely unexpected). It had improved a lot by the time I got home and there were only the slightest traces of white remaining on the hills around. By the time I got to the shops, my fingers had become rather too numb for easy handling of the complexities of grocery shopping and zip, bag and mask management. So some delays there. Now the sun shines from time to time.
God of sun and rain,
God of joy,
God who suffers and loves and gives us hope,
give us grace to know you in all things.
