Fr Ron Writes . . .

13th January 2021

Dear Friends,

The New Year we hoped would be brighter and better than the last, most especially when the last one has proven to be so absolutely dreadful. Indeed, it may be, but the days are still difficult for many and there seems to have been little sign of relief with new restrictions and chilly isn’t the word for it even here in Tenerife! I didn’t bring my winter woollies or my long Johns! I also haven’t had to water anything, the plants on the roof are probably waterlogged! I know it’s a blessing as we need the water, but we do like to see the sun and bathe in its warmth. However, the weather forecast is looking much better as far as warmth and sun goes! These are certainly waiting days, waiting for the vaccine, the chance to worship by singing in church, and receiving the chalice. The wonder of seeing family and friends without restrictions and warmer weather to name but a few things.

The Christian Church through the ages has had to wait, to have patience and to be prayerful, focussed on waiting and longing for the return of the Lord, therefore we need resources to assist us in our waiting. The Psalms are a great source of strength when things are difficult, there are over 150 prayers. The whole range of human emotions are found in the Psalms, from “joy and suffering” to “fullness of life. In these Psalms there are manifestations of the soul and faith, and in which everyone can recognise and communicate the experience of a special closeness to God to which every person is called.

Here are a few of the words from the Psalms that you might well know,
Out of the depths I have cried to Thee O Lord! and Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. If Thou, O Lord! wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it? For with Thee there is mercy: and by reason of Thy law I have waited on Thee, O Lord! My soul hath relied on His word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord. From the morning watch even until night: let Israel hope in the Lord. For with the Lord there is mercy; and with Him plentiful Redemption.
Use this prayer book of Jesus throughout these challenging days for as Jesus said in Matthew 6.6, But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Fr. Ron Corne
Chaplain
