Thought for the Month
HUMPTY – DUMPTY
Of course ,we  all know Humpty – Dumpty. We know him because of his shape. And we remember that very nasty accident,-…when  he fell off the wall ,-sustaining permanent injury. But we also remember him for  his assertion   “WHEN I USE A WORD, IT MEANS JUST WHAT I CHOOSE IT TO MEAN,  NEITHER MORE NOR LESS”……..Regrettably, Humpty has become a role model for many  people to-day.  And  there are a lot of Humpty-Dumpties about to-day. Indeed,  they’re all around us, and we all know them.
(Many of them appeared in the period leading up to the General Election) Some people accuse us in the Church of  making  Humpty-like assertions ..   However, that would be incorrect. For ‘we preach Christ crucified,- a stumbling  block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,- but to those whom God has called…the power of God and the wisdom of God.’
                                                       (1 Corinthians 1,  24)
(Vide Alice Through  the Looking Glass – Lewis Carroll)
