Alphabet Messages from Kay
SATURDAY 9 MAY
Morning All
The word I have chosen today for the letter M in my alphabet challenge is MISSION. Many startup business plans include a mission statement, the church has a mission statement, there are religious missionaries, there are quite a few definitions of mission. The one I would like you to think about today is a personal mission specifically for you. I am setting you special assignment that you will make it your mission to achieve something today. Now in this time of lockdown it can be anything from clearing out 'that cupboard' you've been meaning to do for years, clearing out the garage, panting the fence - you know the kind of thing I mean. You might want to think about phoning 'that person' you've never got round to phoning, finishing a project, learning a new skill, spending more time in devotions with God - as they say in Mission Impossible' this is your mission should you choose to accept it?' It will be interesting to see if any one posts their achievement (s) stating Mission Accomplished! I might just post mine - you'll need to wait and see 🤔

God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I wonder if you questioned the mission Your Heavenly Father set before You or if You just accepted it with humble trust and faith in His love. Whether you did or not, I am just so grateful that You did because my life has been so blessed - even in the hard and sore times. Help me now to achieve my mission today and then maybe, just maybe as my journey in life travels on I might just have enough faith to carry on Your mission of sharing the good news of Your unconditional love. AMEN
CHORUS:
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine,
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
Hide it under a bushel - oh NO!
I'm gonna let it shine.
Hide it under a bushel - oh NO!
I'm gonna let it shine,
Hide it under a bushel - oh NO!
I'm gonna let it shine,
let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.FRIDAY 8 MAY

The word I have chosen today for the letter L in my alphabet challenge is LIFE.
( I was going to choose LIBERATION but thought better of it )
How apt are the words In this image. As you have heard me say a few times on Sunday worship and in these posts that this situation is only temporary. However, I don't say it to belittle the situation we find ourselves in, I am fully aware that for some people this Lockdown situation is particularly traumatic - maybe even more so for those in the shielding process. Having said that Life is precious and we should make the most of each day as best we can whether in lockdown or not. Jesus said in John 10:10b "I have come in order that you might have life—life in all its fullness." What does that mean for you?
Where is your life at just now? How can Jesus help you to live it in full? What's stopping you living life to the full - even in lockdown? I read a quote recently which said 'wherever life plants you - bloom with grace'. So are you a bloomer or a weed, I ask? Rev Kay
God loves you - No Matter What
PRAYER: Lord Jesus, thank You for my life, warts and all. Thank You that You offer me fullness of life because that means that even in the rough times I am able to be the best I can and make the most of the life I have because You are right here with me. Forgive me when I forget that truth. Amen
CHORUS: from the old blue chorus book;
All glory to God He lifted me up,
He lifted me up I know,
He stretched forth His hand and He lifted me up and that's why I love Him so.
I love Him more and more,
I love Him more and more,
And when I stand upon the other shore
I'll love Him more and more.THURSDAY 7 MAY

The word I have chosen today for the letter K in my alphabet challenge is KING.
When you think of a King, what image do you see in your mind. A majestic figure all dressed in robes? a crown of gold? carrying a sceptre? surrounded by servants and an entourage, people bowing down in service....? I would imagine it would be something like that. When we see official royal occasions - albeit it we have our Queen- it's something like that. Now contrast that with the King of Kings, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. His majestic figure wore a plain robe, which was eventually ripped from him and gambled on, his crown was made of jaggy thorns which made his head bleed it was pushed so hard in his head, He carried a cross and the sins of the world rather than an expensive sceptre, He was surrounded by friends who did their best to follow Him, some who found it too hard and betrayed Him or gave up on Him. Amazingly He bowed down and served us - not the other way round. Wow what a King, can you imagine? I suggest you get a cuppa, try and find a quiet place at some point today and let that truth sink in and give Him your grateful thanks. Rev Kay
God Loves You - No Matter What
PRAYER: King of kings and Lord of lords thank You, thank You, thank You. I have no words sufficient enough to tell You how much you mean to me - but I hope You do. Amen
CHORUS:
His name is wonderful; His name is wonderful
His name is wonderful; Jesus my Lord
He is the mighty King; Master of everything
His name is wonderful; Jesus my Lord
He's the great Shepherd;
The Rock of all ages
Almighty God is He
Bow down before Him; Love and adore Him
His name is wonderful; Jesus my Lord.
