Thank you God for renewing our lease on this little blue planet.

Thank you God for renewing our lease on this little blue planet. 

We understand that under the house rules, 
we need to give more love,
fighting is not allowed, 
preying on other people is forbidden,
we need to care for the weak, the elderly, the young, the vulnerable...
we know there were many infringements this year
and we thank you for your grace to let us stay on this Earth for another year.

We will strive to improve and be a worthy tenant of your gift.
Food for thought for the New Year
Wishing everyone a Happy and Safe New Year!

This Christmas slow down and take a moment to trust and wait

Luke 2:25-26
"Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord's Christ."

So we survived the so called "End of the World" yet again. In this modern life we seems to be always eager and rushing for things. Even our eventual demise we seem to be eager to embrace quickly and every year we keep announcing our impending doom.

This Christmas we should take time to reflect on what has gone and what is to come.
To clear our minds of thoughts of doom and gloom
To build our trust in God
And to remember the true meaning of Christmas
That God sent his Son Jesus Christ down to Earth
To give us Hope
And show us his Grace
To give us a sign
That God is in control
And we are in his care
Nothing we do will suffice to redeem ourselves
Everything we have is from God

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you - 1 Peter 5:7

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. - 1 Peter 5:7

Guess this is common courtesy... if someone cares for you, should you not return the care ?

Food for thought. In today's world it seems that this is lacking in many people.
Can you afford to not return the care for God for all the blessings that he has given you?
Only you can answer that question.

Thank God for taking care of love ones on their journey

Be thankful to God's blessing
Of his ever watchful eye
Of his caring love
Spread over all of us
Even if we don't realise it
Each and every step we take
Each and every place we go
Be it near or far
He is there to watch over us
What ever happens will be for a reason
For every step we take
Is to be closer to him
We just need to open our eyes
To see the wonders that he has in store for us.
