Thought for the weekend - a prayerful goodbye

I like to pray night prayer from New Zealand, which includes this:

It is night after a long day.
What has been done has been done;
what has not been done has not been done;
let it be.

As I look back over nearly 3 years of ministry in Acaster Malbis, Appleton Roebuck and Acaster Selby, I am thankful for the beautiful things that God has been doing in and through us, but I also regret things that we haven’t done. Undoubtedly like others who have retired, or left jobs, I am almost more aware of the things that have not been done, as those other things that have been achieved!

For instance, I wished we had gathered a growing new worshipping community of families, or I could have visited more people and perhaps I missed opportunities for sharing my story of faith; but I am thankful for the times in Sunday worship when we deepened our love of Jesus, and midweek I have loved eating together and being inspired by God's word to follow Jesus in our day to day. We have seen God’s Holy Spirit gently working, growing in us a sense of community and a deeper love of God and a commitment to holiness and to love others, even if it costs us. I am especially thankful for a small number of people who have prayed weekly with me through the difficult times and happier times, because in this rhythm of prayer we have noticed and given thanks for God’s flourishing in our communities, as well as praying for the needs of individuals.

But isn’t that the point? Life isn’t all about wins and losses. In any endeavour we rarely get to finish a tick list and think everything is completed! This above section of night prayer helps us to let go of the day’s regrets as well as its successes, and instead rest in the goodness of God. It is done. Let it be. The truth is there will always more to do, but we can leave things in the depths of God’s gracious love.

Goodbyes are not all about reflecting on highs and lows and how I will miss you all. I was really blessed the last two Sundays with a special song from our community choir, some beautiful leaving presents and times to chat. As we begin a time of unknowing about who comes next to lead our small churches, let’s choose to rest in God’s provision and pray for the next right person’s appointment and for God’s continued work in and through the local church in our villages.
