Perfect day for a garden read

Today I managed to squeeze in a full days rest. The first in about three weeks.
I have had to resist the urge to prepare for a number of preaching and teaching engagements this week.
It is so important to seek nourishment for my own soul just glad to be reading Andrew Murray on Prayer in the sun. Brilliant.
Also managed to go for a walk along the prom with our Rob.Ended up at the Albert dock for a bite to eat. Good times :-)
Also managed to secure some tickets for Thursday nights semi- final. Great day so far.

Post Passion Party.

Last night The Bridge played host to 270 young people for The Post Passion Party.

A worship event aimed at bringing church youth groups together.
It was a tremendous success. The music was brilliant ,6 of our students coming together to form a band for the night and they were a real blessing.
Wem YPF provided a very powerful drama that nearly moved Bill Bygroves to tears.

Great , memorable night. I will have to start planning the next one :-)

Reflections :-)

Tonight I looked back through some pics taken over the last 10 years. Its been wonderful to have known so many people.People who I have laughed and cried and prayed with. Its been wonderful to watch my girls grow up and it has been wonderful to share the years with Gill.

But you can't help feeling sad. People who you have known and loved just aren't around anymore.

Tomorrow Jane and I will be taking my mums ashes up to Sefton park to spread them amongst the daffodils. The same place that we took my dad to a couple of years ago.

A melancholy moment tonight :-(
