This small tidal island just off Lindisfarne
is really called ‘Hobthrush’, but that you never hear.
It’s always “Cuthbert’s Island” for the saint
who hurried there
at every opportunity – just to be alone
from the busyness of a Prior (or of a Bishop later on!)
It was here that he PRACTISED the life of a hermit
which he lived on Inner Farne eventually.
When the tide has pulled back we use rocks
as stepping stones,
make our way to the cross, and foundations
of a chapel.
Away from external distractions, the hermit must
face their own heart,
and when that is known, at last they’re alone,
available, open to God.
Step up to the highest point here,
then look on the side of the rock
for a plaque placed there by some praying nuns
with words about God and His power.
He’s mightier than the storms of
my circumstances,
mightier than all the storms in me.
He’s mighty enough to make all disturbance
cease.
He’s mighty enough to love me.
