‘So watch your step.   Use your head.  

Make the most of every chance you get’. 

  (Eph 5v15-16 from The Message)

As part of the 800th Anniversary of the Priory we went over into the gardens the other weekend to watch the re-enactment of a battle.   There was one man there with a bruised eye he had not been watching the previous day and was hit by an arrow.   Some were suited in armour and when the visors of the helmet were down could see hardly anything and one tripped over.    In the battle one group was trying to get to the safety of the Priory and one man took his chance and made a run for it.   There was more than one occasion when I could have shouted ‘Watch your step.   Use your head.   Make the most of every chance you get’.  

As Christians what a great message this is from Paul.   A word of encouragement to each one of us as we live out our faith.   Over the next few months let this phrase run around your mind, write it down somewhere so that you look at it frequently, to be reminded that in everything you do you ‘Watch your step.   Use your head.   Make the most of every chance you get’.  

Grace and peace   Neil Drayton
