Reflection for the Week – 22 September 2026
God has provided a bio for us in Exodus 34, one that emphasises God’s graciousness and faithful commitment to God’s people.

I fuss and fret over reduced daylight hours, when my level of activity is curtailed by the late rising of the sun and its early setting.
The Preacher gently admonishes me with a reminder that: “for everything there is a season; a time for every matter under heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1).
I find comfort in the certainty of the cycle of the seasons, as balmy autumn days give way to winter, when the earth rests. My spirit can find respite from the ceaseless search for fulfilment and success.
Prayer
Creator God, I gratefully accept your gift of this Sabbatical, to rest and restore my weary soul. In your name, amen.

Ezekiel’s vision was set amidst the background of exile, loss and uncertainty.
