They saw Jesus walking on the lake.
And coming towards the boat.
He does all this for our sake.
So that spiritually we might also float.
In the Pilgrimage they come to a thin place.
This is where heaven seems less far away.
I feel this too in my own race.
There are places where faith seems to stay.
By a small village church.
Or by the rushing river Gave at Lourdes.
Here you feel you can more easily make your ultimate search.
You feel the pressing into your flesh of spiritual swords.
A thin place may be a Welsh mountain.
Or it just may be a quiet country church or lane.
……
Where is a thin place
It could be a high mountain
Or just your garden
…….
