‘People will try and tell you that all the great opportunities have been snapped up. In reality the world changes every second, blowing new opportunities in all directions, including yours.’ ~Ken Hakuta


Confusion is part and parcel of life. Clarity is great but not everything in life has such clear defined boundaries. Much of faith and spiritual matters try to bring clarity to the confusion of life and also to our own lives. This weekend just gone we celebrated Pentecost Sunday. The Holy Spirit does many wonderful things but in particular helps us when we are confused and unsure. Rather than be gripped by such confusion and fear, we are invited to keep going and not give up. We pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance and direction when we are confused and unsure. It should always be an opportunity and never a defeat.
