Having taken a sabbatical from Facebook, I'll be returning, now and again, to my blog, safe in the knowledge (as here) that few if any read it these days so I won't have to 'like', 'love' or express some other emotion on reader's comments.
Much on my mind and in my heart right now is the question: "Why does the Church (quite frequently individually although not always collectively) seem to so often let people down?"
I was recently re-reading (in St Luke's Gospel, Chapter 15) Jesus' words:
“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbours together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’”
Why hasn't a shepherd come in search of this wandering sheep...?

I do read your blog and look forward to your words!
You don't seem to encourage comments at all, but I had noticed your lower activity of late.
My slowness in approving comments was down to my perrenial tech-blindness. Thank you!
