Thought for the week: David L Saunders has a ‘be’ in his bonnet

‘Love does break through at unexpected times, in unexpected places, and from unexpected people.’

Walking down Charing Cross Road to a meeting, my attention was grabbed by a wayside pulpit outside a steeplehouse. It had these four words: ‘Do less, be more.’ Such posters, normally of the ‘wages of sin is death’ variety, do not speak to me, but this one was different. It did speak, and challenged me. My mind went to: ‘Be still and know that I am God’, ‘O rest in the Lord, wait patiently for him’. Yes, it is a matter of finding the right balance between being and doing.
