The butterfly effect

‘See, the home of God is among mortals.
He will dwell with them;
they will be his peoples,
and God himself will be with them; 
he will wipe every tear from their eyes.
Death will be no more;
mourning and crying and pain will be no more,
for the first things have passed away.’

Revelation 21

Christian Aid Week, this year, is focussing on

ending Poverty. The lectionary text, with its

vision of a whole new world reminds us

of the hope we have, in God, that there

can be love and justice and compassion.

And it can begin in us.
