Little Gidding

Little Gidding gets it's name from "giddy" describing the prayer, praise and delight of a relationship with the living God. Ferrar House, where we stayed last weekend, has been a house of prayer on and off since the 1600s. There is also a connection to a poem written by T.S. Elliot which Betsy knew about from her literature studies at university. To our surprise and delight the weather was near perfect and the trees and rape seed fields were in full bloom. The pheasants were crowing, the songbirds chirping, the lambs bleating and the horses clopping. This was just what we were looking for in a place of solitude to seek the Lord.
