Wellbeing Thought for Friday 5th March 2021

Friday 5 March The still, small voice “My sheep listen to my voice.” (Jesus in John 10.27) We are unlikely to hear God’s voice audibly. Rather, the God who has come to live in us wants to communicate to our spirit by his Spirit. If we want to learn to listen to God we need […]

Wellbeing Thought for Thursday 4th March 2021

Thursday 4 March Listen and learn The foundational way of God speaking to us is through the Bible (read 2 Timothy 3.16-17). When we read the Bible, we read the Word of God!

Monday 1 March Spiritual renewal  Have you ever allowed your petrol gauge to get into the red zone? Not only could you run out of petrol, you could also damage the engine. The same is true for your spiritual life: If you don’t refill your spiritual tank, you will get depleted on the inside and […]

Wellbeing Thought for Sunday 28th February 2021

WEEK FOUR: SPIRITUAL WELLBEING Sunday 28 Feb True rest and refreshing Holidays can be good for our replenishment, but they don’t necessarily satisfy our need for spiritual rest and wellbeing.

Wellbeing Thought for Saturday 27th February 2021

Saturday 27 Feb Sabbath The concept of Sabbath is often misunderstood; it means ‘to stop’. The biblical creation account tells us that God rested on the seventh day – delighting in his creation.
