SUNDAY 10 MAY
Morning All
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.
