May you be rooted in grace and may you stand in the light of the Son. May you drink deeply from the well of hope and given strength to stand tall in the wind, and reach for Heaven's reign and rule in all you are and in all you do. May mercy mark your soul always #niteblessing
A reality check. Take good care, whoever you are.

More significant words from John Swinton at @CofeBelong conference to shape our thinking and action across the churches.
To be included you just need to be in the room; to belong you need to be missed. The Church must be a community of inclusion *and* belonging - Prof John Swinton #CofEBelong

May tomorrow be a blank page upon which God writes what is possible and helps you to dream. May you see beyond what you are facing nowadays be given the gift of imagination, that you might dream higher, reach further and see more clearly than you ever have before #niteblessing

May the life that flows from God’s love root you in hope. Your identity is not defined by your circumstances or emotions or the attitudes of others. Remember that your worth and dignity are rooted in God’s view of you. You are cherished, loved, accepted and forgiven #niteblessing – at Chalfont Saint Peter, South East

May the New Year’s dawn lift your eyes to the horizon that lies ahead of you, as yet undiscovered. May you be given the courage to take your gaze from your current shores of familiarity and safety and set your eyes on what might be, leaving sadness and sorrow behind #niteblessing – at Carnlough, Northern Ireland
