The strange path of one walking in the spirit.

1) EYES - Known = He not only sees you He knows you.
2) CANDLE FLAME -Lord I want this night to end Lord let your day begin.
3) STARS - You are one in a million. You are special and truly amazing. You are created in Gods image. The word BEAUTIFUL was created to describe God; you are made in his likeness. Praise God for you. Amen
4)SKY - Night = Gods over thrown it. Yay.
5) WATER -Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. John 6: 35 Come to the living fountain and Drink
6)FOOD - Full on the Spirit. Full on the Bread of life. You are what you eat.
Jesus said, “I am the bread of life” John 6:35

7)FIELDS -We are the Lords crop, in him we will grow and others around us will grow as well.
8)LEAVES - Death = Ugly or beautiful? Heaven? There are several mansions there. You will go home to your father.
9)MUSIC -Sing praise, sing praise, sing praise, sing praise, Forever God is faithful, forever God is strong, forever God is with us, Forever forever.
10) STONES - Nail = I created you and made you. Do you need something else to measure my love for you by? This should be enough. Look at this and remember me. You are truly loved do not doubt it.

Different parts in a Christian Life. Realisation mainly. God is here with us. Now, Forever, Always.
1) Looks at the God that made us, like in Psalm 139, that he knows us before we are here.
2)Is the descion we make in our life to become a Christian commit our lives to God.
3)The realisation that we where made by God in His image, as part of His Glory, as part of His Family, as part of His body.
4)Is the dark parts in our life, being a Christian isn't easy, just a little lighter.
5)IS our thirst for God, linked with
6) Our hunger for God's word
7)Is about the way we act, being a Christian not in words but in actions, by what we do not what we say
8)Is the end, who really knows, but I hope for Heaven
9) Is our life of worship the never ending beat of what we face with God
10) Is the central focus of it all. God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit.


The promise is a funny thing
It never promised sun
Yet in the briefest moments
You can see the victory is won

The promise is a funny thing
The path was never easy
Yet in the briefest moments
You can see the victory isn’t measly

The promise is a funny thing
The skies aren’t always blue
Yet in the briefest moments
You can see the victory is a different hue

The promise is a funny thing
It never promised no pain
Yet in the briefest moments
You can see the victory isn’t lame

The promise is a funny thing
The promise was for strength
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory at length

The promise is a funny thing
It may have promised rest
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory is no test

The promise is a funny thing
It always promised light
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory in sight

The promise is a funny thing
The promise was for strength
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory at length

The promise is a funny thing
It promises us grace
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory is the case

The promise is a funny thing
It promises help from above
And in the briefest moments
You can see the victory is love

The promise is a funny thing
It promises love undying
And it takes no brief moment
To see the victory that God wasn’t lying

Questions

I mentioned in my previous group about one of my lovely youth groups. Its reasonably small and all the young people come from a church orientated background or have been going to church for a while. We  started back in January and as a leader theres that post Christmas panic when you realise you havent planned a session let alone the rest of the term. So I used a cop out, I used my first session back to help get the young people to plan the sessions - brilliant, right! Over the last five months in post here in Conwy, theres been a real theme emerging from my work and my visits and my volunteering/volunteered(ness) at things like Faith and Order and 3Gen. This is the idea of questions and having a safe space to ask questions discuss them and not necessarily come out with a definitive answer, but having explored deeply the topic at hand. At Uni I hated the big questions discussed late at night, when one should have been writing assignments because then it felt like wor...

The Arrival

While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born,   and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. Luke 2:6-7

Reflection on #fando

My university degree assignments were largely theological reflections, and I largely hated writing them. But as I reflect I have or I have a responsibility as I get back on the train. What do I have to do now. My response to these two and a  bit days. I have had a strong renewal in my passion for theology, and I don't want to keep this to myself. This has an impact with my ministry with families and young people. To help the, engage with theology, the communion of saints the richness in grappling with the big questions. Moving to not have a shallow ministry but a deep ministry allowing God to reach deeply in my life and of those around me. Being aware of the Wesleyan quadrilateral in the work I do not just as a a useful tool for graduating from a college with Methodist tendencies. There needs to be an investment in theology in the local church and I have a chance to facilitate this. Theology is integral to our faith and walk as Christians, I think people do want to engage wit...
