Daily Scripture“Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble and He delivered them from their distress.” (Psalm 107 v19)Daily ReflectionNo fewer than 4 times in this Psalm does the writer talk about God saving people in trouble. People who were hungry and thirsty, in a dark place, sick, hopeless – God sent a way out of their distress. God is as real today, as He was then, and is in the business of saving and helping us out of difficult situations. “They cried out to the Lord in their trouble and He delivered them from their distress”. The key here is that people “cried out to the Lord” – and believed He was the only one who could save them. When our problems seem too big to handle, and we can’t see the way forward, there is One for whom nothing is impossible. He has all the answers – he’s just waiting for you to ask Him. Vicki Young

Daily Scripture1 Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvellous things. 10 In righteousness shall he judge the world and the peoples with equity. (Psalm 98:1&10)Daily ReflectionThe Psalmist sings praises to God. He wants the whole world to burst into song; to get out instruments and make joyous music to praise God because of all the wonderful things God has done. Just look around at creation; the beauty of it surely can’t be an accident! The Psalmist also praises God because he treats all people fairly and equally. He also loves all his creation, all people, equally. Thank God that he does; and that he has shown us the way to be saved. Let’s sing our songs of praise to God for that today.Lord God, just and true, you make your salvation known in the sight of the nations; tune the song of our hearts to the music of creation as you come among us to judge the earth; through our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.Revd David
