January 27th ~ A small stone

 International Small Stones Writing Month
  
written for a river of stones ~ go here to find out more
Saint Cuthbert's tomb, Durham Cathedral

In this vast cavernous holy place
where people flock to from all over the world....  yet .....
In your presence, dear Saint, you have given me healing, peace and reassurance.
I came to you again today, lit a candle ..... whispered a prayer.
Thank you for your intercession
and the gift of your peace.


Saint Cuthbert

  2. Durham Cathedral is awesome indeed, Emm! Hundreds of people file through it's big oak door on a daily basis and, as you can imagine, it gets really busy during the Summer months. Yet, despite the crowds, there is this lovely atmosphere of peace. :)
