Church today was at ashford baptist church.it is amazing how the church speaks into our lives.I have been struggling with issues about patience the whole of last week and the preaching was a reminder.The last few preachings have been practically very relevent.
It was the mother's day celebration at the church and there were two full jars of daffodils in the rampart .The little children were asked to come forward and give away a daffodil to every lady in the room .The little ones bounced around with the daffodils all over the place.They kept coming and giving us daffodils.I was a little embarassed because I had one too many and I kept saying I already have them and they kept saying,' you can have some more'.Last but not the least,a cute little black girl ran across the rampart ,stood in the sidewalk for sometime ,eyed me,walked to me and said,'Here you can have two of mine'and plonked two bits of daffodils on my lap.I could not help smiling.It was so very cute ,the way it was done.
The pastor stressed on the fact that when we face tiring situations ,it helps to take time between work to remember who you are and whose you are?Not that i have not heard this before but it helps to be reminded .
This week I also go through my yearly appraisell which is interesting.A very kindly senior has agreed to take me through it.
My panflute lies a little neglected this week but I like the fact it brings out a beautiful music regardless of how I play it.
The preaching today was on sanctification.
Mostly from Romans chapter 7 and 8.
The door we looked at it was through Graham Tomlin ,the bishop of Kensington's work,'Looking through the Cross.'
which ends with 'one day we will no longer feel the pull of the old self....'
