Sadness isn\u2019t a wonderful feeling, but it is important. Whilst perusing a life of happiness is admirable, we must be realistic and recognise sometimes the unexpected happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How often do we look at people and make assumptions? It\u2019s not what we look like on the outside, but what is going on inside. Everyone copes with adversity in different ways, but it is something we all experience. Many may have heard about the difference between an oak and a palm tree. The oak tree looks strong and stoic but sometimes breaks in a storm, while the palm tree is likely to bend backwards and forwards as it is more flexible and less likely to break. Which are you like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the course of your life isn\u2019t as you envisaged, with storms and pressures, having Faith you know you are never alone. Jeremiah 29;11 \u2018 For I know the plans I have for you \u2018 declares the Lord- plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we are together in church we are probably there for different reasons. The styles of worship can vary but we are there in fellowship supporting each other and hymns unite us, with words such as:<br>\u2018Do not be afraid for I have redeemed you ,<br>I have called you by your name,<br>You are mine\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Come and join us! We pray that we are like both trees, able to weather anything life throws at us in our own way but relying on our roots of Faith. Our plan isn\u2019t always God\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jill Parker<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>(As always this View is the personal view of the author.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Would you like to write a View from the Pews?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We welcome contributions for View from the Pews from anyone who would like to write one.
