This morning's reflection was based around three quotes:

"When you get home, don’t worry about what you will tell your loved ones…no-one will know where you were and what it is you did. You are and will remain the forgotten army.” (General Slim, to the allied armies in the far east during World War II)

“Wherever the gospel is preached all over the world, what she has done will be told in memory of her.” (Jesus, according to Mark, of an unnamed woman)

“we are writing history right now, how do we want to be remembered?” (narrator on a video short 'The European Refugee crisis explained)

The question we were left to ponder was, seventy years from now, when the children in our Sunday School are all 'old' and we are long gone, what story will be told of us and how we lived out our faith?

And the hope of the vision in Revelation of a new world order where death and sin and sorrow and tears are no more.

If nothing else, it gave me lots to ponder!
