Wondering if we lost during these lockdowns
Opportunity to become more reflective.which is strange as we had the chance to think anew!
Is that just because we no longer have good leadership in community ,Churches, politics and wider.
....(think return to ponder anew later)..........
It's later..took son to witness death of a whale
On local beach
Nature is cruel
Sadness is present
Life ended
Whale moorened
But we got the same issue...this lockdown it's cruel..is it still required that you and l should remain indoor for vast amount of time!
Criminal anti social behaviour blighted some life's.
Finding hard to offer support , when services not interested,not acting for those who
So often failed by system.
Find myself low in spirit, feelings hard because feel powerless to help.
Local services been cut those at end of queue going to suffer more.
Family friends taken up care
But finding this challenge.
Many own resilience is further tested
Charge via council tax, social services increased
But quality of staff training, knowledge
Is ineffective.
But wage structure not going to contract
The best staff.
Life hard and not getting easier.
Faith communities have opportunities here to emerge as capable leader's.....
But they espically in the youth community field not recruited with a visionary approach.
There mission field here that hurting,people crying imprisoned...faith communities following Jesus need to engage and lead people into better place....create better communities.
But must also support those who can challenge unjust system that erodes people's well being.
Have to stand alongside and enable people to experience standard of living ,higher and better then most experience at present.
