MONDAY REFLECTIONS
Be Still
Jennifer Fletcher
I love Christmas time! The lights, decorating the tree, time with family - and it has become especially magical in recent years with having young children. Starkly contrasting with the joys of advent and Christmas, is the deep sadness and concern at the fragile and war torn contexts of so many other families & individuals around the world.
The Lamb And The Shepherd
Isobel Akers
It is good to be reminded that, no matter what we do or how others may treat us, God is our Saviour, our Shield and protector. As we spend time in His presence, His voice becomes ever more familiar.
From Nietzsche to Mumford
Elaine Utting
I’ve been using the Lectio 365 app to guide my daily time with the Lord recently. One phrase has stuck with me for several weeks: ‘a long obedience in the same direction’
Seeing Differently
David Francis
Myopia (nearsightedness) is on the increase due to more phone use, screen work and close-vision tasks. Providing for this means opticians are flourishing. We need better vision.
Not By Might
Joy Revie
I have always wondered how Jesus could sleep so soundly in the boat with that storm raging around him. What sort of peace did Jesus have that He was able to sleep so deeply and how do you get it?
Autumnal Light
David Fletcher
As long as I can remember, I have always loved the changing seasons from the glorious, long, sunny days of summer to the cooler, shorter days of Autumn. In this context I have been thinking upon Psalm 27 recently.
First Things First
Ian Revie
Many of you will know that Joy and I are spending a lot of our time with our daughters and their boyfriends renovating their houses.
Will You Give Me A Drink?
Jennifer Fletcher
For many years as a Christian I felt (and at times still do!) like I needed to be the person with the answers, the one who others could come to.
Grace Abounds
Louise Harris
My grace is sufficient for you.
This wonderful and comforting phrase from Corinthians came into my head several days ago and just seemed to settle there.
Like Children
Helen Francis
In two of the gospels Jesus highlights the need to have a little child's attitude in order to enter the kingdom.
It's something I've often pondered on. What traits of a little child are helpful for us to have?
Faith In The Midst
Isobel Akers
Watching a series on Television recently, a random phrase caught my attention:
“You don’t always have to see the path to know that it’s there.”
