Walk on, with hope in your heart

Just had three lovely days’ walking with Janet, from Halewood to Southport at the west end of the Transpennine Trail.

We passed various things, nearby and in the distance, Anfield (distant), Aintree (near), old railways, new roads, the woods where reclusive and sick red squirrels are said to live, Blackpool Tower (very distant and barely visible through the anticyclonic haze). Squirrel pox was a great threat, and contagion seems to be a theme of the week, whether it’s squirrel pox, the new type of coronavirus, or destructive philosophies. Protection and rejection are similar…. What to do?

God, protect us from the dangers of this world.
Give us grace to know when to open our hearts,
even though we want to close the doors.
Help us to unleash the love of Christ.
