So what about the silence?
Here's how this poem came to be written: Lord of the nations - We remember with grateful hearts the men and women of our country who went forth to protect the liberty we enjoy but who did not return!
Help us recognise the debt we owe them so that we may strive, in our own lives, to protect the freedoms that were won at so great a cost.
And so we commit to your safekeeping those who have died in war; those whose memory we treasure; those who have sacrificed themselves in the service of humankind.
Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord And let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. AMEN

So how does having diabetes affect lives? CLICK HERE for a short quiz to highlight symptoms of diabetes. Here's a really great 6 minute video of Things Not To Say To Someone With Type 1 Diabetes.
A PRAYER FOR TODAY Loving God, we hold before you all who are living with or are affected by diabetes and ask you to ease suffering and to quiet fears.
We give thanks for their fortitude and ability to organise and ask you to give them strength and encouragement.
We pray for those researching treatments and cures, that they will use their skills and knowledge, finding the inspiration to make diabetes a thing of the past.
We pray this in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. AMEN. |

International Day for Tolerance Here's a quite wonderful video (4 mins 17 secs) Which of these people do you:
Perhaps tolerance is a simple as following the teaching of Jesus to "Treat others as you'd like to be treated!"
A PRAYER FOR TODAY While the United Nations designates today an International Day for Tolerance, we know that you, God of all people, call us to something higher, to something beyond mere tolerance. We pray that you would enable and empower us to be people of love and compassion, who actively seek the good of the other and work to to that day when people from all tribes and tongues might come together in peace, embracing and delighting in our differences. Amen
