Honest with God Helen M Clarke

Faith can be a tricky business, but if we are honest with ourselves and with God we have a firm foundation on which to build. This collection of 38 poems and 12 reflections (written in British English) is intended as a resource for private devotions and/or acts of worship. Are you feeling anxious, angry, sad, frustrated, questioning, at odds with the world around you? Are you full of joy, love, hope? Are you in awe of the beauty of creation and the resilience of nature? Perhaps you are seeking a focus for your own discussions and meditations as you contemplate the Christian year and life's many ups and downs. Section one of this book contains 17 poems and 7 reflections on Life's Ups And Downs. The second section (21 poems and 5 reflections) begins with New Year and works its way through Lent, Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Easter, Ascension, Pentecost, Trinity, Harvest, Advent and Christmas.
