It's fairly obvious that we are in the midst of Holiday time, or perhaps Vacations or even Stay-cations!
How do we know?
Because it's teeming with rain? It is after all Glasgow Fair, (also it rained on St Swithin's Day; Oops! we have 40 days of this now!)
Or perhaps, because we have had an assortment of people in the Pulpit on Sundays, for instance, last Sunday we had Angus Kerr, the Clerk to Glasgow Presbytery leading worship, and most welcome he was too.
What is lovely is that apart from the 'working' visitors on a Sunday we have also had many other visitors, and all have had one thing in common, --
They all had nice things to say about the Building, and about us, for just being there.
Because a little eye operation prevented me from, not only getting to my computer, but also from doing most of the normal stuff most of us take for granted; such as getting about the place and taking photographs, driving, working, gardening, and of course normal housework.
(Fabric Convenor, is what I do in my spare time! Ha!).
What I have been able to do and can appreciate now, is being able to sit and take time out, to look around me and to see.
During this holiday time, it is perhaps worth remembering that; that we make sure that we do take time for Quiet Time.
