The word I have chosen today for the letter S in my alphabet challenge is SPECIAL. I am sure there are many people in your lives who are special to you. Thank God for them right now. I am equally sure you have many many memories of special occasions shared with friends and loved ones. Reflect and thank God for them right now. Here's the thing - do you know you really are a very special child in the eyes of God. If you do, thank Him for that truth right now. If you don't know then believe this wee Minister - coz she doesn't tell porky pies, well no big ones anyway - I am telling you here and now that you are. You are so special, so so special that God loves you as though there was only one of you to love. So no matter what your day holds take heart and relish in that truth YOU ARE SPECIAL TO THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY and He loves you unconditionally, happy days and praise His name. Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Father God thank You for thinking I am special. Thank You for believing in me, help me to believe in myself coz when I do that then maybe just maybe I will believe I am special and precious in Your sight and I will be able to live my life to the full and achieve all my hopes and dreams in the knowledge I am worth so much more than what I think I am. Amen
CHORUS:
I'm special because God has loved me
For He gave the best thing that He had to save me
His own son Jesus crucified to take the blame for all the bad things I have done.
Thank You Jesus, thank You Lord,
For loving me so much.
I know I don't deserve anything.
Help me feel Your love right now,
To know deep in my heart
That I'm Your special friend.THURSDAY 14 MAY

The word I have chosen today for the letter R in my alphabet challenge is ROCK.
The word ROCK is used in many different ways . Have you heard the saying 'between a rock and a hard place?' It means you have found yourself in a difficult situation where you have a choice to make with equally unpleasant outcomes. Not a nice situation to be in because it often means that someone is going to be left disappointed. Rocks can be used for building, they can be used for climbing - physically and mentally! Sadly they can also be used for throwing and causing damage and injury. I like to think of rocks in a positive way....in my wee walking group I have a sense of a achievement after climbing over them ( after much moaning and huffing and puffing ).
People often say that another person has been their rock in times of unrest, Ill health and worry. In the bible there are many stories where a rock or rocks are mentioned ( bible study lesson for you, how many can you think of ). How often has Jesus been your rock, your cornerstone, your firm foundation, the rock whose love will never loosen no matter how much you 'climb over it'? He is the ROCK who will never be moved, hallelujah and Praise His Holy Name.
Rev Kay . God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus thank You for being my rock. Thank You that when I need You I know where to find You - deep in my heart - that's where the foundation stone of your love is based. Give me the strength never to stumble or fall over it but to use it to stand tall, achieve and overcome all my fears and worries, then rest in the safety of Your arms. Amen
CHORUS:
The wise man built his house upon the rock x 3
And the rails came tumbling down.
The rains came down and the floods came up x 3
And the house upon the rock stood firm.
The foolish man built his house upon the sand x 3
And the rains came tumbling down.
The rains came down and the floods came up x 3
And the house upon the sand fell down.
So build your life on the Lord Jesus Christ x 3
And the blessings will come down.
The blessings come down as your prayers go up x 3
So build your life on the Lord.

The word I have chosen today for the letter Q in my alphabet challenge is QUEUE....maybe that made you smile. We seem to be living in a world of queues just now. Everywhere you go queues, people are asking in social media if anyone knows the length of the queue at different shops. There is even an app which shows you length of queues. ( would we moan as much waiting in queues for the sales or to get the latest gadget ?) To be fair that's not new technology, just go to any theme park and you can find out the queue time for rides. When Krispy Kreme first opened up at Hermiston Gait it was reported the queue went on for miles 🤔. I wonder how like the queue will be when McDonalds open again. What has queues got to do with faith you might ask? Well maybe not a lot other than it got me thinking and asking some questions:
I wonder if people queued up to listen to Jesus on the shores and hills of Galilee?
I wonder if people queued up just to catch a glimpse of Him?
I wonder if people queued up to have Him lay His hands on them and pray?
I can think of a few stories in the bible where I can find answers to those questions.....can you? If you can post them and I'll give you marks out of 10
Here's the thing - the one thing you don't have to queue up for is to meet Him in prayer . Also there is no queue to invite Him into your life - how awesome is that? Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus thank You that there is no Queue for Your love, I don't need to stand in line to receive Your love. Forgive my impatience when I don't trust Your will for my life thinking I know best. Help me to understand and accept that You love me so much and always have my best interest at heart. Amen
CHORUS:
1 What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought
since Jesus came into my heart!
I have light in my soul for which long I had sought,
since Jesus came into my heart!
Since Jesus came into my heart,
since Jesus came into my heart,
floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billows roll,
since Jesus came into my heart.
