Bush Church Aid 22 And yet it is the law of all progress Vale, Joan Correll 23 that it is made by passing through some stages of instability— ABM - Going the Distance 24 and that it may take a very long time. The last word 25 And so I think it is with you; your ideas mature gradually—let them grow, let them shape themselves, without undue haste. Don’t try to force them on, as though you could be today what time (that is to say, grace and circumstances acting on your own good will) will make of you tomorrow. Only God could say what this new spirit gradually forming within you will be. Give Our Lord the benefit of believing that his hand is leading you, and accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense and incomplete. —Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ excerpt from Hearts on Fire “Trust in the slow work of God.” Many of the spiritual disciplines of the church call us to slow down, to spend time in contemplation of God’s presence in the natural creation, to be receptive to God’s ‘gentle and quiet whisper’ (1 Kings 19:12b, The Message) or the ‘the sound of sheer silence’ (1 Kings 19:12b, NRSV). The Prophet Elijah had to learn that God is not only present in the ‘fireworks’ on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18) but, maybe, more importantly, is present in stillness. God speaks intimately to Elijah on Mount Horeb in either a gentle whisper or in what to us is sheer silence. In Elijah’s case, God comes to ease his confusion and distress and set him back to ministry. Slowness is counter-cultural in our day and age. Slowness can be a profoundly spiritual in-breaking of God’s Spirit. In slowness, we can encounter the divine and be set back on track or even set on a new track. May you know slowness in your life and ministry.

When looking at Mount Moriah and its significance to the early history of the Jewish Nation as the site of the planned sacrifice of Abraham’s son Isaac as one of the Songs of Ascents, we come across the words “As the mountain surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people both now and evermore.” (Psalm 125:2) Mount Sinai doesn’t really “surround” Jerusalem, but it is significant mountain in human history. If you haven’t read the full history, I suggest putting aside some time to read the book of Exodus from chapter 1 through to Chapter 34 where we pick up The Golden Calf incident, The area surrounding Mount Sinai was a site where people of the Exodus (some 2 – 3 million) camped for a period of time, and it was here that God personally visited Moses and issued the Ten Commandments. It was also here that the people reverted to the melting of their gold jewellery and created a golden calf to worship because Moses had been absent for forty days. When visiting The Land of the Bible, I love to “drill down” through a historical timeline to trace through the past history of an area because there are many places with a long rich and varied history. Mount Sinai is one of those places.

    BCP Eucharist The Fourth Sunday of Easter – ANZAC Day 8:00am 25 April 2021 Welcome: “This is my commandment, that Celebrant you love one another as I have loved you. The Rev’d Adrian Stephens No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” Preacher – John 15:12-13 The Right Rev’d Denise Ferguson Today is ANZAC day and it is quite rightly a day to give thanks for the many people who have placed their own lives in danger to protect the freedom of others. It is a day to remember the Defence Personnel who have died in battle; the people who have been injured or bereaved as a result of war; the people who continue to live with the trauma of war and who may never know peace in their heart. We pray today for the veterans who consider suicide as an option for peace, and we give thanks for the Royal Commission into Veteran Suicide. It is important that we recognise the great sacrifice that many people have made in order that we may live in peace. We also recognise that our Lord died upon that horrid cross so that we could inherit eternal life. As we pray today, let us give thanks to God for our salvation, and let us give thanks for the sacrifice offered by the members of our Defence Personnel. The Rev’d Adrian Stephens, Locum Dean St Peter’s Cathedral strives to be a Christ-centred, sacramental, inclusive, thinking, mission-oriented, faith community.
