Daily ScriptureI believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lordin the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage wait for the Lord! (Psalm 27:13-14)Daily ReflectionCourage. That’s what we need right now. Things are so finely balanced, everything could go either way. Will the restrictions be lifted? Will life return to what it used to be? We simply don’t know. We just have to wait. Then it is so good to be reminded that the Lord’s goodness is forever, that we are right to trust him and be strong and courageous, as we wait. Wait for the Lord! His timing is always perfect. Revd Ylva

Daily ScriptureThe man said ‘The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree and I ate’. Then God said to the woman ‘What is this that you have done?’ The woman said ‘The serpent tricked me, and I ate.’ (Genesis 3.8-15)Daily Reflection The Hebrew words for Adam and Eve mean Man and Life. It’s the story of every man and every woman since human life began. We have free will, but with that goes responsibility for the choices we make. The man blames the woman; the woman blames the serpent. The man even implies it’s actually God’s fault, for giving him the woman in the first place! We blame our instincts, our environment, our parents, and if all else fails we can always blame God. We are made in the image of God, but all too often abuse our freedom and ignore God’s laws, and then blame others when things go wrong. This old biblical tale of the Fall is still absolutely relevant. It contains deep truths which are well worth pondering. Revd Rosemary
