The word I have chosen today for the letter P in my alphabet challenge is PEACE
Who amongst you has ever said 'away and gie ma heid peace?' OR ' can I not even get a minutes peace?' or words to that effect? We all want, in fact, we all need a bit of peace in our lives, it's essential for our physical and mental well being. How are you at finding inner peace in the midst of turmoil in your life? Are you able to switch off, find a quiet space and take some deep breaths to focus your mind? If not why not? I try hard - sometimes fail - to start my day with some peace time for me and God. I believe when I am able to achieve that then my day seems to be less stressful even in the hectic days. In Johns Gospel Jesus says "Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid." There is no better peace than that - I pray you can revel in that truth today.
Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus thank You for leaving me Your loving peace. Forgive me for the times I forget that truth. Remind me when I get myself all stressed out to recall those words and be comforted by them. No matter what today has in store for me I pray that the peace of God which passes all understanding rests within me today and always. Amen
CHORUS:
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river in my soul
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river in my soul
I've got love like an ocean
I've got love like an ocean
I've got love like an ocean in my soul
I've got love like an ocean
I've got love like an ocean
I've got love like an ocean in my soulMONDAY 11 MAY

The word I have chosen today for the letter O in my alphabet challenge is OVERFLOWING. So question for you - are you overflowing with God's love this morning? I'll leave that for you to answer. We are all at different stages in our journey of life. We are all dealing with different circumstances in our lives. We are all - I imagine - asking lots of questions about the present situation and I also imagine we all have an opinion about it. Here's the thing WE ARE ALL being bathed in God's love and it overflows, a never ending waterfall of His precious love for us. Romans 15:13 says
' I pray that the God who gives hope will fill you with much joy and peace while you trust in him. Then your hope will overflow by the power of the Holy Spirit'.
I echo that prayer for you and yours today, tomorrow and forever. Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord thank You that Your love for me overflows, overflows and overflows some more. May I always be open and willing to be drenched and soaked to the skin by that truth that my love for You never dries up. What an amazing God You are and I praise Your holy name forever. Amen
CHORUS: old favourite
Running over, running over
My cups full and running over.
Since the Lord saved me I'm as happy as can be,
My cups full and running over.
Telling others, telling others,
My life's work is telling others,
Since the Lord lives in me
I'm as happy as can be
My life's work is telling others

The word I have chosen today for the letter N in my alphabet challenge is NORMAL. So come on now tell the truth - who among you thinks they are 'normal?' . I have often heard people say 'normal is over rated'. People have asked the question for many years 'what is normal?' Who decided what normal is? What may be normal to one person is not normal for another. I think your definition of what you consider normal depends on many factors in life eg your heritage, how you've been brought up, how you've been influenced by others views, what we hear on the television or read etc..... if you think about it hard enough you will realise the partial truth or whole truth of that - I think.
How many of you have said the current situation isn't normal .... I have definitely heard that many times standing in queues as well as 'this is the new normal' ..For me I think normal is whatever it is you do in life that brings you fulfilment, wholeness and happiness and feels right for you ( except if it's breaking the law 🤔). It's a tough one trying to determine what's normal and what's not and I suspect many people have sat on committees or been part of debating teams trying to figure it out. Here's the thing ......What IS NORMAL is the fact that a man called Jesus died and rose again that we may be forgiven and accepted by Him and have the opportunity to live life to the full in the knowledge of that truth....that my friends is a NORMAL happy day. Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus thank You that Your love for me is perfectly normal. Thank You that You think I am normal ( coz sometimes I wonder at myself.) May spending time with You always be a normal part of my day. I love You Lord, Amen
CHORUS: from the blue chorus book again....( if you are able sing the parts and do the actions )
Over and over like a mighty sea
Comes the love of Jesus, rolling over me
Over the sea, over the sea,
Jesus Saviour pilot me,
Over the sea, over the sea,
Over the jasper sea.
