My prayers of late have been focused on praying that the heart of Tasmania would beat with the heartbeat of God.

I prayed this for the Parish of the Northern Midlands before setting out to meet parishioners at Campbell Town on a Prayer Pilgrimage visit. At Campbell Town I prayed this with parishioners. Imagine my joy when Chris Sadler then drove me to the town’s water tank on a hill overlooking the township. The wording on the tank reads: HEART OF TASMANIA! What a lovely ‘lolly’ from the Lord. Thank you, God of surprises. God of joy. God of the heartbeat of love, of grace and shalom.
