Very sad letter written recently



Sometimes it the everyday stuff that gets people emotions active.
Like the above sad letter. 
But this is something the writer of the letter has invested in for over forty 40 years, that a lot of time, money, effort.
Also been a family investment. 
The fuller story is he no longer willing to attend a football match with Hull city, and feels betrayed.

It reminded me of the reason many leave the Church, because of simple things like relationships.
Not the bigger practical stuff.
Nor the theology of faith  
But broken trust, feelings.
Simple stuff can sometimes trip myself up, may say wrong thing or do the incorrect thing, in relationships. 
Never set out to offend, but sure have failed in the everyday and mundane stuff.
In asking your grace be offered to any like myself, further l thank you for extending that grace to others also.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
