When we are in a hurry, we don’t always appreciate the things that stand in our way forcing us to slow down. Like a motorway sign flashing out the message ‘Long queues ahead’ or a day feeling under the weather when there are deadlines to meet. Having to reduce speed for such things can be a blow to our schedule, but sometimes the Lord Himself needs to slow us down just to make sure we stay in tune and on track with Him.

We have called for a day of FASTING and PRAYER, click on the post for more details on why we have called for it, what we are trusting God with from it, and how best we might all go about it.

In God’s mercy the apostle Peter says we have been given, “New birth into a living hope.” A hope that never dies because Jesus ever lives.

We are not without hope in this world. We must pray that at a time when so many don’t know where to go and what to do, they will run to God and find as we all can and must, “… Salvation comes from Him.”
