Clouds and Sunshine.

Yesterday it was gloriously sunny , today the clouds hang low over Liverpool. Often it's just the same in our own lives, one day we are upbeat and the next downcast.

The solution is always found by looking beyond the clouds ....

Psalms 40:1-3

1 I waited patiently for the Lord;
he inclined to me and heard my cry.
2 He drew me up from the pit of destruction,
out of the miry bog,
and set my feet upon a rock,
making my steps secure.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear,
and put their trust in the Lord.

Dog tired ......

Been a good day today , tired now,need to sleep hopefully as well as these two :-)

The beach comes to Bridge chapel

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside :-) ... Colin has bought Haribo ice-creams especially for me ..

If live near the Bridge come and sit by the beach .....

Seek His Peace

There is peace in the presence of God. So be still in his presence today. Don't let the busyness of your day steal His peace from you .

Ecclesiastes 4:6
Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.

A Wall Of Memories

Laura spent much of last week plastering her walls with photographs of days gone by. Lots of good memories.

Someone once said to me that one of the primary roles of a parent is to make good memories for your children. ...so true .

Who and what do we worship.

1 John 5:21
Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

Idols come in many forms , we shape our lives around them. Money, status, sex and when they don't satisfy we struggle ...

The apostle John who walked with Jesus knew what he was talking about when he fired off this warning. One for both you and I to ponder today ...

Sweet Pea TLC

After months of tending to my sweet peas finally there are signs of the flowers to come. Got to be a spiritual lesson in there somewhere :-)

Holding each other accountable.

Met with Phil for an hour or so this morning. Encouraged each other in the ups and downs of life this side of heaven. A valued time one that is always of mutual spiritual benefit.
