Potential.......



Bulbs ..................................... to daffodils.





I planted some bulbs last weekend .... or should I say I planted some daffodils. Sure, they don't look like daffodils yet but I look forward to what will emerge from the depths of the soil in a few months time. I don't expect to see a bulb appear but a daffodil in all its intricacy. It will emerge from immaturity to maturity and then .....

These bulbs I've planted have potential .... these times on Saturday mornings have the potential to be something beautiful in the Kingdom of God. The conversations are laced with questioning ...they are beginning to be something beautiful .... and God is in it all.

Yet I still feel that what I am doing is planting, nurturing, encouraging .... will I see what emerges? It has the potential to be church for those that come, in that it will be their spiritual home and God lives in the midst of the community!

On a different note .. the community association is hopeful of getting a vacant shop in the estate .... now that is good news .... with potential .... exciting times!

Croissants coffee and card making in the morning then?!
