Jesus welcomed the people, taught them about the Kingdom of God and healed those in need. Luke 9:11
Did you guys have a video camera on me yesterday and into today? How did you know that this is exactly, precisely and too amazingly accurate for my life today?....

It’s My Right! by David Cross We live in a world obsessed by personal entitlement. Every need, every life-choice seems increasingly to be declared a right, indeed a human right, but there is no biblical basis for this popular way of thinking. To be valid, a right must be conferred by someone with the relevant authority; otherwise,...

What Burdens Do We Carry? by Sue Sainsbury Recently, at Ellel Grange, we had communion as a team, and we did it really quietly. Very often, our lives are so full of activity and responsibility and noise that it can be difficult to draw close to Jesus and listen for His whisper, His guidance, His peace. So, unusually, as we gathered to share the...

The Faithfulness of God in Nature by Patricia MacEachern I was walking on the beach the other day with a friend. We were both at different stages of our healing journey but both of us were deep in thought and working through what God had been touching in our lives recently. All the time that we were walking in silence together, the waves were lapping quietly...

Stand by Matt Moore When most of us think of a soldier, we often think of someone who is very physically fit and active. On TV and the big screen, a typical war movie that portrays soldiers engaged in battle, usually shows them running, shooting or yelling - doing something! So, when we think of the believer as a soldier...

Trust Me by Marilyn Shearn I was sitting in the departure lounge of a UK airport recently, waiting for my flight back to Prague. I had on my mind the upcoming Ellel Explore weekend, when we were going to be looking at the topic of knowing who we are and the importance of good nurture (especially from parents) for the development...

Self-Reliance by John Sainsbury When you read a verse like today’s verse, I wonder how it makes you feel? It’s certainly a challenging verse, but then didn’t Jesus often say incredibly challenging things? As I’ve reflected on this verse, certainly in the light of the teaching we give at Ellel ministries, I have been wondering...

God’s Unfathomable Ways by Patricia Lake Whatever challenges he faced in life were clearly not a problem for this man. According to Scripture (2 Kings 5:1-14), he was a great man, honourable, well respected, and courageous, winning many victories, and (courtesy of the God of Israel), all was going well, except for one thing. Naaman was a...

Comforting Words by Peter Brokaar Do you ever have a day that just feels rough, hard-going or discouraging? I wish I could claim that this never happens to me. Reality, however, is different. I was having a pretty rough day recently. But all day long these words kept coming to mind `Comfort one another with these words`. This is a quote...

Don’t Add or Subtract by Tanya Person When I read today’s scripture, it really hit me how prone we are, as human beings, to add to, or subtract from, what God tells us to do. God told the Israelites certain foods to avoid, and the rabbis added more rules for kosher eating. What about us? What has God told us to do or not do and we have...

Gardening by Jilly Lyon-Taylor Returning home recently after two weeks away, I was shocked to see the state of my garden, which was looking very untidy and overgrown. The lawn was looking more like a field, and weeds appeared to have taken over in the flower beds and vegetable patch. Even the flowers and vegetables that I had planted...
