Hi there All Nations Family,
How are you this week?
I enjoyed the service on Sunday - It is always good to hear a preach which is totally gospel. You have to be born again - There isn't a 'kind of' gospel or different gospels - It is black and white. Jesus is the way. Not watered down, not changed but concentrated....the same as it has always been. You can read something from a hundred years ago or sing an old hymn the truth is always the truth.
In Galatians 2:10 when Paul is explaining about when he met the apostles, after having been sent off to preach the Word for years,
I had an interesting Tuesday this week - By the way , I love Tuesdays as this is when we have staff prayer. I missed the beginning as I had a visitor and I was helping with some form filling. This started as an admin task and very soon became a lesson from God. I often don't know the story behind people but this was different.
By the time I had finished and joined the staff prayer I felt broken as I got to know the layers of this person's story. One of the things that was said was - During Covid there were only 5 people coming into church for Sunday Face to Face Lunch - I was chosen as one of the five! I felt quite special!
This person was lonely, hungry, had health problems, had children taken into care, had lost his wife in tragic circumstances and was still standing!
As a staff team, we prayed for the person - Richard brought him in so we could all pray. God sent him in for prayer I am sure.
Father - help us! Soften our hearts for the poor - poor economically, poor in spirit. Help us bring a gentle word -
In Jesus name, Amen

"All they asked was that we remembered the poor, the very thing I had been eager to do all along." - Galatians 2:10Do we remember the poor? How do we remember the poor?

"Kind words are like honey - sweet to the soul and healthy for the body." - Proverbs 16:24Help us bring the light of Jesus into the lives of those we come into contact with. Father, I pray our words will result also in actions to bring about change in people's lives.
In Jesus name, Amen
