What a blessing it is to know that He loves and cares for us. The price Jesus<br \/>\npaid for our redemption was indeed very costly, so being blood bought we should love and serve<br \/>\nHim all the more.<br \/>\nI love that verse which says Psalm 139:14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;<br \/>\nMarvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. We are truly blessed indeed!<br \/>\nEvery blessing Roy<br \/>\nGarden Visitors<br \/>\nFor a few months, we have had a fox coming into our garden on a regular basis, she now has 4<br \/>\ncubs. We have been feeding her, from a distance at first, gaining her trust over time, she now<br \/>\ntakes food from our hand, and has started to bring her cubs in. She was fearful at first, but now at<br \/>\n7pm she is sat waiting for us, and trusting enough to bring her babies along.<br \/>\nThis has brought to mind, Proverbs 3 v 5-6 saying Trust in the lord with all your heart and soul,<br \/>\nand lean not on your own understanding and he will make our paths straight.<br \/>\nWe can find this one of the most comforting verses, when we are facing difficulties. Trusting in<br \/>\nGod means we don&#8217;t need to do it on our own, he is our source of protection.<br \/>\nPsalm 37v5 Commit your way to the Lord, trust in him, and he will act.<br \/>\nWe may not understand the difficulties or situations we find ourselves in, but God does.<br \/>\nGod bless. Dave&amp;Lin<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Prayer Clock<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nEph 6:18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end<br \/>\nwith all perseverance and supplication for all the saints NKJV. Thank you to all who not only<br \/>\nsupport us with prayer but also pray for all Christian outreach.<br \/>\n&#8220;When I stand before the throne Dressed in beauty not my own; When I see thee as thou<br \/>\nart, Love thee with unsinning heart; Then, Lord, shall I fully know- Not till then-how much I owe.&#8221;<br \/>\nQuoted by C H Spurgeon.<br \/>\nHelp from the Psalms<br \/>\nRecently Psalm 46 has kept cropping up. We might be overwhelmed at the moment, with the<br \/>\nworry of things going on in the world, mental health issues, sickness, money problems. Fear of<br \/>\nwhat the future may hold. The psalmist was going through the storms of life, but we need not fear<br \/>\nas God is in control and said \u201c I will not leave or forsake you\u201d. We will not have to go through<br \/>\nanything again alone for he is with us all the time. The first verse of the Psalm says God is our<br \/>\nrefuge and strength a very present help in trouble.<br \/>\nGod bless.
