I am sitting here trying to write this blog, which I know I should have written by now, but, although I know what I want to write about it is difficult to put pen to paper (or at least, finger to keyboard). It is Zimbabwe which is on my mind. There is much sermonising which could take place. It is astonishing that one man can have such a total and wicked control over a whole country. Unfortunately, though, it is an astonishing thing that we see reflected in many places. However, more than anything I want to join with countless others around the world and pray. It is hard to know exactly how or what to pray, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't. In fact it tends to mean that we should do so more not less. Furthermore, situations like the one in Zimbabwe remind us that it is OK to be angry in our praying. It is OK to tell God what we think, but it is also essential to be patient. However you do it, do join me in praying for this country, not just now, but also in all that lies ahead, whatever the outcome of the election.
