On Lindisfarne

Our Advent Journey has taken a greater literal turn today. We may not be on camel, or classed as 'wise professionals' but we have taken to the road and find ourselves on Holy Island, Lindisfarne.

 As we have soaked in the peacefulness we find that it stems from the dwelling of 'Cuthbert' on the island for an extended period in the seventh century. He was renowned for his gifts of healing and insight, which were much sought after by the people of the day.

The source of these gifts?  The man from the manger who Cuthbert found to be his Healer, Comforter and Guide as he put his trust in Him.
