Reflection for the Week – 15 September 2026
The cause of all our ecological woes is the same as the cause of all our woes generally: common-or-garden, natural-born human selfishness
Posted in Faith
This day, this week, I spare a thought for all the volunteers
who freely give time and effort to serve young and old in the community.
I may never get to meet them all, yet I applaud their unselfish, sacrificial service.
I acknowledge that their contribution is without price.
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying;
'whom shall I send, and who will go for us?'
And I said, 'here am I. Send me'.
Isaiah 6:8
Saying that I have no time to spare is a poor excuse,
when it is God who calls for a volunteer!
Dear God, whose Son volunteered his life for me,
show me the proper way for me to respond to your call,
'whom shall I send?”

Ezekiel’s vision was set amidst the background of exile, loss and uncertainty.
God has provided a bio for us in Exodus 34, one that emphasises God’s graciousness and faithful commitment to God’s people.
