When I was growing up I lived not far from the causeway to Holy island.The island is one of a few special places I enjoy spending time.The atmosphere is very different when the water surrounds the shore.A feeling of peace seems to envelop you even when the weather is stormy.The weather started off cloudy the day we took our friends from Mudeford to Holy Island, however just as we arrived the sun burned through the mist to show the island’s hidden depths.
I thought the words in this prayer written by David Adam were encouraging.

Hidden Depths
Lord, we have hidden depths
Unseen and unknown qualities
Our secret security and strength
Are rooted in the firmness of faith
Open the eyes of our hearts
To see beyond what is visible
May we sense more than we touch
And grasp more than we comprehend
Let our whole lives vibrate with your power
Our whole being respond to your presence
For we are always immersed in you
We are surrounded by your deep love.
