Is it the end of the world?





As we demolished the old garden shed today, our brutal destruction of the floor revealed a hibernating hedgehog. Poor thing! It must have thought it's world had come to an end. We did our best to create substitute shelter, in the hope of keeping him alive until the warmer weather, but we had nothing as solid and weatherproof as his extensive wooden ceiling to offer.

My prayer for today is for everyone who feels their world has come to an end - as the disciples thought on the dreadful day of Jesus' crucifixion. May they hold onto both courage and hope, and may they come through to their own personal Easter Sunday of joyful and renewed life.

And please, Lord, may our little hedgehog survive!
