Rest....

Saturday and today: Cedar Drive, Cripplegate Lane, Station Road, Worthing Road

God's rest celebrates His finished work; whoever enters into God's rest immediately abandons his own efforts to compliment what God has already perfected. Hebrews 4:10 (Mirror Bible)

In this world of busyness, I pray for God's rest and peace for all who live in Southwater.

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.

He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. Psalm 23

Timbermill, Southwater Country Park, Worthing Road

The still waters of the lake reflecting the blue sky above certainly restored my soul when I walked to the Country Park with Alex this morning. It was beautiful.

I pray for all teachers, children and others working in schools. May they have a relaxing and restoring week and return to school uplifted and re-enthused.

Lighten Up

Cedar Drive, Cripplegate Lane, Southwater Country Park, Worthing Road

What a gorgeous day for a walk.  Whether warm or cold, blue sky and sunny days are good for my soul. 

I've been reflecting on the glory of God in creation and the universe this week and was astonished to learn that every particle of the created universe began from a speck of stardust.  We all share in the starlight of creation.

I pray that we'll shine our little bit of starlight in all we do today and lighten up the world wherever we go.
