Busy, busy
I’ve spent a chunk of today creating some graphics and a draft advert for a new project we’ll be launching, God willing, this coming Autumn.
While I’ve got plenty to do preparing for our next, and coming very soon, seasons of Endurance and Little Blessings Online, I also sometimes need to switch to something different.............

How's your day so far?!?
So far, I've been shopping with Jo, reattached some trim to the car, got out a load of washing on the line (I'm always very happy when the sun and wind dry our clothes!), sorted the filtered water (as in filled all the water bottles we use with water from our filter, and topped up said water filter - due to REALLY bad limescale here!), topped up the screen wash in the car, made the bed and tidied our bedroom, sorted the router so it is a little happier letting us acces it for the internet!, made 4 cups of tea for Jo and the boys, cleaned the kitchen, got a second load of washing in the machine, emptied the dishwasher and reloaded it, and tidied up the shed a little...it's only 1220 and I'm aware I've done quite a bit already today!
This afternoon we have a cream tea planned (clotted cream, then jam, but of course!!)

So where's the church?
Lockdown craziness has affected us all. Truly, the world will never be the same again!
I’ve seen churches face the challenge head on, and do the very best they can to continue to build God’s Kingdom where they are. They delivered food, supported local charities – even setting up new ones, knocked on doors to check on the vulnerable, set up telephone chains for support, posted DVDs, cassette tapes and CDs of services to people with no digital access............

God is so good! My son (age 7) is at the hospital emergency room right now due to experiencing nausea after having a fall while using a pogo stick. We are praying and trusting that he will recover quickly and be just fine. But, I felt to share on here because of God's goodness. My son uses his pogo stick at home frequently and doesn't wear a helmet. This evening my husband took him to an event where he planned to use his pogo stick. They had started out when he thought of getting his helmet. They debated whether to return home to get it and decided it would be safer to have it. He was wearing the helmet when he fell. If he hadn't had the helmet it could have been so much worse. God is so good! I believe He placed that impression on my son and husband to return for the helmet.
Mountain bikes prepped, oiled and cleaned; batteries recharged, head torches prepped - all ready for Jo's night-time mountain bike ride so she can see her 50th birthday in, while mountain biking :-)

A Chinese Christian leader recently told his congregation:
“Of course the government is watching you, and even listening to you in your own home! So make sure that what they are seeing is a true disciple of Christ!”
This is the attitude to take. We are not backing down. We are fully trusting in God’s sovereignty over what they do or don’t do to us. We are in the hands of the risen Jesus and He will never leave us nor forsake us.
Be bold.
Dear DingDash family, please keep us in your prayers today. I am here in the US writing Meriam Ibrahim's story. Not an easy story. Yesterday was filled with emotion and tears as Meriam talked about being born in a refugee camp, her father brutally murdering her aunt for an honor killing, her mother being tied up for two days and raped, and her running away and hiding to escape circumcision - only to be forcefully dragged back to the village and the Muslim elders publicly witnessing her genital mutilation - and this was all before she was even 7 years old!
We can use all the prayers we can get for this project.
Counting down the days til my wife's 50th...in just two days!!
Thes
The two photos with her in shades were taken 10 years apart (the most recent was yesterday)...same beautiful friend...growing ever more beautiful and godly :-)
The one without the shades - she was 24...
Wondering how she doesn't age...when I do...she married a youth...maybe that's why ;-)
She looks the same at 49 as she she did when I first met her at 23 (the one where she's wearing a red dress on)
And I love that she wants to go for a nighttime mountain bike ride so she can see in her birthday...what a woman God blessed me with those many years ago!!
Wife, friend, mother, daughter of the King

Tape Measures and Limits - another Andy B 2 Minute Video
God puts limits in front of us. They may even be labelled "STOP".
But what can we learn from a broken tape measure?
