Crookham Diary
A new feature on the website: the Crookham Diary. I’ll be starting it off with a posting every few days or so, but we hope that eventually others will contribute too. The aim is to show, in a fairly light-hearted way, how life and faith work together.

Thought for the day
The book of Ecclesiastes shows us two ways to live, the way of wisdom, and the way of folly; the way of love, and the way of hatred; the way of calm, and the way of unhappiness.
It says:
"Be not quick in your spirit to become angry, for anger lodges in the heart of fools."
Ecclesiastes 7:9
When we become angry, it can be a power to drive us to protest, to reform, to protect others. But its power is great, and can take away our good judgement and self control.
May the anger in your life be such as to give you purpose, rather than robbing you of your reason.
Have a good day,
Steve Franklin
Vicar of Crookham
O Lord,
give us such self control
that the great potency of our emotions
may not hinder or disable us,
but rather drive and energise us.
Amen.
