Dear Friends,
The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it. (Psalm 24, verse 1)
We are all dependent on one another. There are many influences in our world today that encourage us to think, or at least to pretend, that we are independent and able to manage entirely on our own. But the reality is quite different.
It has been said that by the time we have washed, dressed and had breakfast in the morning, the things we have used and eaten have put us in touch with half the world. Occasional events such as power cuts, or shortages of food or other goods, give us a sharp reminder of the extent to which our lives depend on the work and skills of others.
We will make better and fairer decisions about the way we should live if we keep this truth in mind, and also remember the message of the Bible, that we ultimately depend on God for all things. I enjoy our Harvest celebrations each year. Harvest is a time to stop and say ‘Thank you’, to all the people around the world who make it possible for us to live in the way we do, and to God the creator and provider of all things.
Revd John Waller
