What do you say to people?
When you come down from the mountain
Who think you have words of life to say
They are not going to win the lottery
Nothing ‘s going to change
Do we journey on Titanic?
Deck chairs to rearrange
He turns our seeing upside down
Challenges attitude
Tells us what true riches are
Challenges our mood
Learn from me he says to us
Meek and humble of heart
Greatness found in little things
So now make a start
Be as little children
Simplicity is best
Be wholehearted in what you do
Give your life true zest
Give your energy to love
Communicate sincere
Thank the Lord for who you are
To his heart draw near

+ This evening I watched a programme about Jo Cox MP who was cruelly murdered in June 2016. She was full of love and full of life. Her killer, Thomas Mair, had a sad and lonely life that led him onto isolated fantasy and fierce and unexpressed angers. Nothing is so dangerous to our health as isolation and lack of human connectedness.
