Weekly Devotional
Devotional – Stop, Think and Thank
Colour makes my heart sing. Seeing splashes of turquoise mixed with purple and fuchsia in flowers, sunsets and fabric does something to me. By Cheryl Hughes, Lorne Park Baptist Church.
Devotional – Where Else Should I Be?
As I wandered home, I thought about the man's comments. Where else should I have been? I am sure I could have found other things do that afternoon – things less messy, noisy and exhausting. I could probably have found situations where a person holding a masters of divinity degree “should be.” By Linda Wolfe
Devotional – Weeds
Amongst the beauty in our lives there are weeds. They are colourful and initially they even look good. Allowed to grow they gradually take the place of the beauty. Trying to get rid of them is painful and is not easily accomplished
Devotional – New Growth
Darkness creeps in so easily. Do I really want to miss out on a whole season of God working in and through me because I chose to live in darkness of my own making? Certainly not. I'd much rather be a John 3:21 woman. By Cheryl Hughes
Devotional – A Golden Gazebo
Countless times I have worked hard to appear good, clean, shiny, and yet forgot about the inside. I have made a good show of things, but did nothing to be the shelter from life, the protection from the elements, that God wants me to be. By Linda Wolfe.
“But” is a Resurrection Word
But. Despite what they’d seen and heard, despite the finality and weight of that stone, they had returned, carrying spices, ready to anoint His body. They didn’t know how they’d be able to do that - just to move the stone would be a miracle in itself - yet they'd come.
Devotional – Good Friday 2015 | Joy In Lament
Joy in lament. Jesus’ story holds them both and this is the only reason why I can hold both together within my life. Jesus celebrated the coming kingdom and yet he wept over Jerusalem and in the garden. And on the cross He cried out: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” By Renee James
Devotional – Firm Foundation
Change can be scary for most of us. Yet change is simply a part of life! I've found comfort knowing that Jesus never changes. By Anna Sklar, All Nations Church, Sudbury.
