Look up...

Last week: Timbermill, Cedar Drive, Worthing Road, Cripplegate Lane, Station Road.

During the second part of the week Winter and snow returned. It can be tempting to walk head down, keeping your face sheltered from the weather but if you do you miss out on seeing some of the early signs of Spring beginning to show and possibly sharing a cheery smile with other brave walkers.

I pray that we are always able to look up and know that God's glory is evident in all creation whether snow or sunshine. Like Spurgeon, I pray that as we do look up, we also become aware that this same God is interested in all that we are and do. He encourages us to focus on Him, whether we are experiencing times of joy or sadness in our lives. He is our rock, our shelter, our shield and our very great reward.

May God bless the residents of the streets I have walked this week and may they look up and see God's glory and come to know him for themselves.
