What me Worry?

Worry is something just about everyone on the planet does; but why? “Don’t worry, be happy.” is pretty snappy but on the face of real life stuff its about as useful as a screen door in a submarine. Rather than spending time researching why not invest some time looking at what God has to say?

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29-31 ESV

I have found that the best recipe for worry is to set aside focused time alone and just sing. To take a line from the not too theologically correct movie ELF – “The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear.” Today’s video draws comfort from singing some songs to bring you cheer. I hope they make somebody’s day a little brighter! Blessings

The Hem of His Garment

Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made well. Mark 6:56 NKJV

My Maundy Thursday offering is a video with three of the most loved songs which we normally sing at the nursing homes that I visit. This year the only melodies that can penetrate those walls are these You Tube videos which I have been making each week. Each session carries a short devotion and includes sub-titles for people to be able to sing along with the hymns.  Just think of it like sending flowers. If you could share these with someone in long term care, then just as God used the hem of His garment to bring grace and healing He can use these simple videos to be a blessing to those now locked in nursing homes this Easter. God bless!

 

Daily Bread

Trust is a daily lesson that God is delighted to teach. The question that each of us must answer is – “Am I ready to learn?”
What a fellowship, what a joy divine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
