The light of the moon

The light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold on the day when the Lord binds up the injuries of his people, and heals the wounds. Isaiah 30:26

Walk humbly

2008-02-15T11:01:00.002+13:00

No, O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

The path of life

Love never gives up

2008-02-13T13:00:00.000+13:00

It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Corinthians 13:6-7

re-birth

2008-02-13T09:03:00.000+13:00

So it's Lent. I've committed quite a bit to Lent this year, so the last thing I need is another Lent commitment, but I got thinking today - even though I'm a day behind my Lent reading commitments - that I should resurrect Post-it Jesus.

I'm not promising anything, but I'll try and keep it regular, along with a new look that should be finished by the end of the week...

match

2006-11-10T05:50:00.000+13:00

For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.
Psalm 90:4 NIV

Ok, so these 5am mornings are doing my head in, that’s obvious by the illustration of a match in the night. But when you think of it, a match in the night is a very fleeting moment of time and sits well with the scripture, right?

hold our hands

2006-11-09T05:39:00.000+13:00

We come to you, dear Father, to ask that you enter into our hearts. Please come into our lives, not as a visitor, but as a companion to us for always. Walk with us, talk with us, hold our hands; we put our trust in you. Amen.

Ok, so if you come here regularly (which is doubtful, seeing as this is a very young blog) you may be wondering why I’ve not posted for a couple of days, and why I’ve swapped from scripture t a prayer.

The first part is easy, I’ve been very very hectic at work (which is where I set my time aside to do this blog) and just haven’t had the time :o(

The second part is funny. I got up a 5am this morning to come to work, so that I’d have time to post, and get a head start on another very busy day. My scripture texts are taken from the Moravian daily texts, which are emailed to me every day, along with a prayer. I get two scriptures too choose from, but in my foggy eyed tiredness this morning I inadvertently illustrated the prayer, which is quite funny as I hate doing hands.

apple

Ephesians 6:16 AMP

justice

2006-11-01T08:45:00.000+13:00

What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law — justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.
Matthew 23:23 NLT

author

1 Corinthians 13:12 MSG
