Pause For Thought
At the weekend I washed the bedlinen. In other, less exciting news we left the European Union and the nation prepared for yet another lockdown. But as for me, I washed the bedlinen. It was only when I took the sheet and duvet cover out of the machine, though, that I realised that, worn soft and supple by use and familiarity, they had been washed once too often. There was a hole in the sheet and the top seam of the duvet cover had given way from being pulled up to our chins more times than its thread-count could bear. So it was, that at the weekend I also mended the bedlinen.Ìý
I tore up an old pillowcase and put my slightly cack-handed sewing machine technique to work, patching holes and reinforcing seams. The response in our house was underwhelming. My partner, Susie, described the whole thing as ‘a little bit postwar’, and there is, I suppose, something in that, in the make-do-and-mend, the ad hoc fixing up. Because, after all, the linen was hardly perfect again.Ìý It was ok, but it was also exactly as Susie said - a bit postwar: serviceable but decidedly battered and bruised. In the Bible we read a lot about healing and it’s tempting to wish, when we are battered and bruised, that it would always be quick: only say the word, and we shall be healed.Ìý
But sometimes, God knows, it takes a long time to get better. So we also read in the Bible that when we are hurt, God performs running repairs. She binds up our injuries, our wounds, our broken hearts. Just now, like soft, old sheets, I reckon that many of our hearts have been stretched and worn thin, and they will not heal swiftly. Even so, we can perform repairs. When we are careful of one another, when we watch out for each other and attend to one another’s needs: this is how we bind each other up, patching and reinforcing so healing can begin. Now my bedlinen, patched and darned, is not all better; but tonight it’ll still be on the bed, doing its job. And as for me?Ìý I shall go to sleep.
