I don't know if I've mentioned it here before, but I've recently felt God calling me to start praying again down at the Abbey ruins here in Reading.  So, right near the spot where we opened the Reading Boiler Room back in 2001, I've been lifting the people of my town to God, in prayer.

At first sight yesterday was not the day to be out in the open praying.  Rain was pouring out of the sky as rapidly as it could, but as Shirley and I stood praying, we were party to a magnificent rainbow.

I'd been reading Noah's story in Genesis that morning, and as we prayed, it was wonderful to be reminded of God's covenant with all living things.  We thanked Him, and prayed He would look on the people of Reading with a merciful heart.
