28 October 2020Religion or Relationshipby David CrossPaul had been very proud of his religious credentials. He had followed every rule to the letter in order to be right with God. Then he encountered Jesus on the road to Damascus and everything changed for him. He realised for the first time that all his legalistic righteousness was utterly useless as... |
27 October 2020Getting Out of Neutralby Peter BrokaarGrowing up in Holland, which means growing up riding bicycles, I learned about the law of momentum in a very practical way. I learnt that, if you don’t keep the momentum going, you will fall over. To prevent tipping sideways, one needs to keep moving forwards. This principle applies to our spiritual... |
26 October 2020Nature Therapyby Wendy ScottWhy does David refer to the hills in this psalm? It is not as if he expects God to be living on the hill and to come down and help him. However, the hills and the mountains embody the power of God. Psalm 24:1 says, ‘The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it’. Therefore, just looking at and appreciating... |
25 October 2020What a Challenge!by Ruth Hawkey Yesterday I decided to take a cup of coffee to my granddaughter who was working in the local butcher’s shop. As I was walking down the road, it unfortunately started to rain and I wondered what on earth I was doing, especially as the rain got heavier and I began to get very wet and cold. Then the phrase... |
24 October 2020The Birthday Cakeby Dean GardnerWe recently celebrated Gemma’s birthday. Apart from buying each other birthday gifts each year, Gemma and I always secretly visit the supermarket to get each other a birthday cake, which we conceal until the special day arrives. This year I was pleased to find a particularly colourful sponge cake,... |
23 October 2020What Does it Really Mean to Love God?by Margaret Silvester I was recently reminded of a life-changing meeting with Jesus which took place in a communion service at the end of a camping holiday, when I was half the age I am now. As we shared the bread and wine, the following words echoed through the marquee, ‘By and by when I look on His face, beautiful face,... |
22 October 2020Temptationby Tanya Person I have frequently heard teachings about how, in the wilderness, Satan tempted Jesus in all the same categories as we get tested and Jesus passed the test, and the implication I received from those sermons was that Jesus was never tested again. As I was reading Luke 4 recently, it suddenly struck me that... |
21 October 2020My Heavenly Baa Codeby Sue GriffithsSheep often have a bad press. But there’s one skill sheep have that I find extremely impressive. Jesus clearly knew sheep very well, and He also knew this amazing quality they have: voice recognition. It’s what, in our family, we call their ‘Baa code’. It keeps the sheep safe. Every new-born... |
20 October 2020A Great Blessingby Grace BullI think we all have times when we get a bit dry spiritually, and don’t feel like reading the Bible (it’s not just you!). Then we can get into a vicious cycle, where our spirits are dry, which makes us feel grumpy, and when we feel grumpy we don’t feel like reading the Bible, even though that would... |
19 October 2020Bitter-Sweetby Ron ScurfieldIt looked like a sandstorm on the horizon, a grey cloud swirling over the desert. It could have been an army of men on horseback, or camels. But it wasn’t. It was thousands of men, women and children, racing over the dunes with sand billowing around them. They had been travelling for three days without... |
