29 April 2025The Giver of Lifeby David CrossThe legalising of assisted dying or, more accurately, assisted suicide, is a huge issue at the moment in the United Kingdom. If passed into law, this controversial bill, currently going through parliamentary procedures, could result in a fundamental change in the nature and safety of human interaction... |
28 April 2025Formula For De-stressingby Gilly MathiesenI think David was on to something when he penned this psalm. When compared with some of David’s other psalms, this one indicates a wisdom and truth which may have come through the trials he endured, and paints a picture of a man who has learned how to de-stress. He seems to have realised that the place... |
27 April 2025Feathers tell a Storyby Denise CrossMany years ago, when we lived in a Highland Glen, we used to keep chickens. They had a warm and dry home in a little run, but during the day they got a chance to enjoy the garden, pecking and scratching in the earth; they just loved the freedom! By day we could watch over them and by night we had provided... |
26 April 2025Faithful God, So Unchangingby Richard GriffithsWhen we lived near the coast, we often took our children down to the beautiful local beaches. Sometimes we found little flints, not much bigger than a coin, which had a hole in them. We wondered how the hole got into such hard stone. Once, I was going through a time of great personal difficulty. I felt... |
25 April 2025Flourishingby Patricia LakeToday’s scriptures are striking. ‘The godly WILL flourish … for they are transplanted to the Lord’s own House’ and ‘They flourish in the courts of our God’, where truth and righteousness abound. Some dictionary definitions of flourish are to ‘grow vigorously, thrive, prosper’. The Lord... |
24 April 2025When You Just Don’t Understandby Annalene Holtzhausen Despondency is defined as being downcast or disheartened; lacking hope or courage; feeling dejected (Collins English Dictionary). Maybe this describes how you’re feeling; today’s verse seems out of your reach, and actually only relevant to other people. You’re starting to believe that praying and... |
23 April 2025Everything That Has Breathby Christel BaxterSomething interesting happens in the early morning hours, just before it starts getting light and the sun comes out. At that quiet and rather dark hour of the morning, there’s a burst of bird song unlike any other time of the day. This early morning cacophony of birdsong is called the dawn chorus.... |
22 April 2025Hunger and Thirstby Ron ScurfieldTowards the climax of His suffering on the cross of Calvary Jesus cried out, “I thirst” (John 19:28). Yet not long before, He had been offered a drink and refused it. Some commentators say this was because it was ‘mixed with gall,’ a mild sedative which would dull the pain (Matthew 15:23).... |
21 April 2025Out of the Pitby Dean GardnerI love the way that the writers of the Bible, inspired by God through his Holy Spirit, paint such powerful pictures with their words, pictures that speak right into the circumstances of our lives. Our verses for today from Psalm 40 paint such a picture. They portray so clearly a person who had been trapped... |
20 April 2025The First of Manyby Peter BrokaarThe first of many! The Apostle Paul refers to Jesus as ‘the firstfruits’. What an incredible and hope-giving image! In the springtime the beginnings of the year’s harvest appear. Depending on where you live, this might be cherries, pears, rhubarb, or some greens. In the north of Scotland, to be... |
