Daily Scripture:‘I gave an account of my ways and you answered me; teach me your decrees.Help me to understand the teaching of your commandments; then I will meditate on your wonders.’ (Psalm 119.26) Daily Reflection:A girl I knew tried to tell the man who wanted to marry her all her bad points, from her terrible cooking to her early morning grumpiness. Much as she loved him she could not believe that if he knew what she was really like he would still want to marry her.The young man listened patiently, then said, ‘I completely believe you. I’m sure everything you say is true. But I love you, the whole of you, just as you are, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you’.God created us. He knows the truth about us, our failures, our imperfections, our sinfulness. But he never stops loving us.Loving Father, help us to understand and follow your commandments.Revd. Rosemary

Daily ScriptureThen Jesus said to him, ‘Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.’ (John 4 v 48) Daily Reflection We all pray for what we desire. However, it often seems that I receive very little of what I have asked for, at least in the way I wanted it to be answered. Does that mean that Jesus did not hear my prayer? Do I only believe in Jesus if He answers my prayers exactly as I specify? Instead of impatiently waiting for the answer to our specific prayer, we need to be open and listen deeply. Jesus will answer our prayer, however, our answer may have a different “take” or direction that we may not have anticipated. We need to be open and trust Jesus to bless us as we truly need. Jesus will not disappoint us, even if we have to wait for a while. Lyn Hayes ALM
