Lighthouse Poppies

We were not snowed under with our appeal for poppy pictures in the service last week, but here are the three we have received, from Josie, Faith and Noah. In the weekly 15 minute family devotions that Dawn emails to lighthouse families were asked to make a picture of a poppy with either art materialContinue reading “Lighthouse Poppies”

No Clear Path

It’s the second day of a week off, and rain pounds the roof of the caravan, and wind blasts it against the windows, but I’m warm and dry inside. I took the dog out earlier, and he delighted in running through muddy puddles and jumping in a water filled ditch, I tried to find theContinue reading “No Clear Path”

A place of joy?

While away on holiday last week, we visited Barnstaple. Heading away from the pedestrianised shopping street, back to where we had parked the car, we walked along Joy Street. The sign on the end of the road had a rusty screw loose. It also had a bit of a cobweb. The weather was damp andContinue reading “A place of joy?”

In God’s house?

The passage I used for the phone line prayer meeting the other morning, Thursday the 2nd July, was from Genesis 28. Jacob uses a stone for a pillow, has his dream of angels ascending and descending, recognises the presence of God, and turns the stone into a marker anointing it with oil, declaring the placeContinue reading “In God’s house?”

Bow down for those bowed down

Outside our back door there are a couple of chard plants that we bought a year or two ago at a school fayre in Scaynes Hill. Recently in the sunny weather they have been growing taller and taller. They have huge shiny green leaves and a yellow stem. One of the plants has now reachedContinue reading “Bow down for those bowed down”

Walking by on the other side

I’ve just been out with our Labrador, for a walk. It was a time of much needed physical and mental activity for both of us, and the vitamin D through the glorious sunshine is beneficial too. Walks though have become a little strange, every so often it is not him that stops to sniff, butContinue reading “Walking by on the other side”

The Moon by Night

It’s bed time! Actually long after it, and I’m nearly heading up the stairs but look at that moon, big and bright how can anyone tonight simply turn in when the wonder of the creator is displayed so brilliantly above, so instead of simply allowing the dog out for a brief wander in the garden,Continue reading “The Moon by Night”

The Church

How much value do we put in earthly things, including our places of worship? Here’s a passage from Holy Week As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!’ ‘Do you see all these great buildings?’ replied Jesus. ‘Not one stone here will be leftContinue reading “The Church”

A house of prayer

On this Monday of Holy Week we often bring to mind how Jesus went into the temple and turned the tables over, he disturbed the complacency of unjust society and challenged the people of Jerusalem to consider what is important. What might have been important to us a couple of months ago in early FebruaryContinue reading “A house of prayer”

Birds of the air

Back in January I mentioned in a sermon the annual “big garden bird watch” by the Royal Society of the protection of Birds. Today they have announced their top 10, and the bird in the number one spot is not really a surprise, the House Sparrow has also held that place for the past 16Continue reading “Birds of the air”
