@DevotionalTreasures i must be especially awesome then, as people are always stunned when they meet me. lost for words is a fairly regular experience 😂 🤣 😅
and so starts another book...number 3 if you're keeping count.
book number 1 has been published - have you bought yourself a copy of it yet? either digital (eg Kindle) or paperback, from Amazon: "Broken Dreams, and Hope!"
book number 2 is awaiting a foreword and Nathan Berry's wonderful grammar checking skills. got a cover I like, so that is going well.
book number 3 now has all the text it needs, but requires some heavy editing...but that's the part I seem to do okay...started at 1180 pages, so made the book a bit bigger and am currently down to about 850 pages, now I've removed lots of line breaks from copying the text over lol...slight panic to start with! it won't be anywhere near that big when i've finished deleting everything that doesn't need to be there (from the transcripts of 20 episodes of Marriage Matters - of about 35 minutes each....oops, did I just give the topic away 😉 )

@DevotionalTreasures i'm hopeless at classical music........i studied it at gcse level (history and appreciation of music).............it wasn't a great grade lol
my teacher liked me because of my musical talent, but conceded i wasn't a classical musician and that it appeared i didn't appreciate the history of classical music which was the heart of that course...i did better in Music GCSE....everybody thought i was rubbish
God inspired a song for my exam and we often practiced our music for exams etc during lessons, and never with headphones
when i played my piece it wasn't classically based, so always stunned the teacher and students into silence lol they didn't understand how someone like me could create music like that, since i didn't play the violin or cello, but an electronic keyboard
still makes me chuckle
We took possession of our newly acquired farm ! As usual many regions are flooding and others are struggling with drought. @sinbach #BTJ #Volunteers #Training
Pray that the God of Issac will perform miracle for His chosen people.

S04E090, T Cutting Out The Good, Andy B 2 Minute Video
Good things and bad things. They make up our lives! And it’s easy to want to forget about the bad things, especially those mistakes we made that we don’t want anybody else to ever know about.
We can accomplish, some of the time. But, there are some mistakes that are impossible to hide from others. And there is nothing we can ever hide away from God.
While it may seem like a great idea to cover over those dents and scratches from the bodywork of our lives, it may actually pay us to leave them as they are. Not all dents are bad! [READ MORE]

@sinbach i read about China, and I often find it difficult to believe what i'm reading is true - even though i know it is
i don't know what to say, other than to pray for God to intervene in this situation, then i run out of words...
thanks for sharing this

S04E089, Stress, Confusion and Clearing The Decks, Andy B 2 Minute Video
Stress can hit us in different ways. And one of the symptoms I’ve often experienced myself, or seen in others, is that of confusion.
You can be racing through life one moment and, the next, wonder you’ve just put the milk in the cupboard and the tea bags in the oven.
That, right there, is confusion, and too much stress can leave you in that situation.
As Christians we are absolutely not immune to the struggles of living in this world. However, we do have access to the creator and designer of this world, which means we can always ‘phone a friend’ for help.
If life is stressing you out, go grab a cup of tea, go for a walk, stand outside in nature and enjoy the sky or trees. [READ MORE]

S04E088, Road Closed Signs And The Beauty Beyond, Andy B 2 Minute Video
PS - this episode was filmed and then edited with @tanjaostman 's husband and son in our studio, so is a bit special 🙂
“Road Closed”.
It’s a simple sign in the UK.
It is a big, unmistakable sign – in red, with bold white letters. It means you can’t go any further in your car, without, essentially, permission - such as you live or work beyond it. But, to most people, it is the end of your journey along that road, because you are not allowed to proceed any further.
Near our home is a beautiful location, right on the coast. Steven runs to it. Jo and I cycle to it, often with Peter. We stand, we look, we listen, we breathe. It’s idyllic. [READ MORE]

A Brief Pause with Andy B, 28.06.2022
Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you.
He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.
Psalm 55:22

It's good to check in with God during the day, so take a brief pause every hour or so and reflect on this quote/image.

Another victory for healing a nation. Now, let's use the freedom we have been given. For Christ's sake, let's pray!
