Pause For Thought

Pause For Thought
From Sheridan Voysey, Writer and broadcaster:听
A few years ago I wrote a book about starting again after broken dreams. Any naivete I still had about the world and its problems was soon dispelled as hundreds of readers shared their own broken dreams with me. To this day, the hardest part is replying to these stories without resorting to clich茅. After speaking at a Christian conference once, a woman and her daughter came up to ask me a question. The daughter, Kate, was too distraught to talk, so her mum spoke for her. She said, 鈥淟ast year Kate鈥檚 husband was arrested for a serious crime. Since then Kate has lost not just her husband, but also her daughter, who thinks she must鈥檝e been complicit, and many of her friends, who don鈥檛 want to be associated with something this bad.听
Here鈥檚 our question: What good could come from a broken dream like this?鈥� What could I say. I just didn鈥檛 know. And clich茅s about looking for silver linings on clouds were ready to fill the silence. I started praying silently, hoping inspiration would come. I said, 鈥淜ate, your sense of betrayal must be immense. Your husband broke your trust, your friends broke your trust鈥︹�� And that鈥檚 when it came鈥攁 nebulous thought that started crystallising into something clear. I said, 鈥淜ate, what if you were to treat this problem as a quest鈥攍earning how to rebuild trust after it鈥檚 been so badly broken. What if you were to face that quest with God and document all the highs, lows, and lessons you learn along the way. Do that and you might help others rebuild trust after their own betrayals.鈥澨�
Kate looked thoughtful for a moment, then broke her silence. 鈥淵es,鈥� she said, 鈥渕aybe I could.鈥� Hope had been born. As we head into lockdown again today鈥攐ur dreams and plans again interrupted鈥攖hat conversation with Kate is on my mind. Because while some might find in it a silver lining, finding more time to read, clean or garden, as in April, for many others, the problems it brings could be overwhelming. Good may come from this, I鈥檓 just not sure when. But I dare to believe that if we turn it into a quest, lockdown might stop being our master and instead become our servant鈥攖he lessons we learn through it serving a greater end.
