After a brilliant youth social at King Georges Park tonight, where they all played rounders and football, I decided to keep out in the fresh air and went walking after the Youth had left. There was just something so liberating being free to walk around the park.
After a really positive and uplifting day it was just so wonderful to be able to reflect on all the busyness of the last couple of weeks. It was time to think of questions posed, answered and thought of. It was time just to marvel at the awesomeness of creation.
Deciding that it was too cold to stay out but still not wanting to return home I went for one of my drives. Again I felt so free. I had my worship CDs on and I just spent time out from everything.
A song which has been really prominent for me over the last few days has been a Vineyard one called "Child of God". The chorus is still echoing around in my mind;

A song which has been really prominent for me over the last few days has been a Vineyard one called "Child of God". The chorus is still echoing around in my mind;
"Father, You're all I need
My soul's sufficiency
My strength when I am weak
That love that carries me
Your arms enfold me,
till I am only A child of God "
My soul's sufficiency
My strength when I am weak
That love that carries me
Your arms enfold me,
till I am only A child of God "
In times of doubtfulness and feeling week, useless and insignificant God is my strength. This was a real theme for me when driving. It was the thought that I kept coming back to. Someone said to me this week, whenever you feel 
distant from God, when you feel on your own, cling the cross. We have a God who is faithful.
distant from God, when you feel on your own, cling the cross. We have a God who is faithful.Thank You God for Your faithfulness. I thank You that You will never fail me. I thank You that You are my strength when I feel week. That You are all I need. Lord I pray that I continually cling onto Your cross. In Your precious name, Amen

Whoever sugguested that idea to you about the cross-clenching thing truly is a good one....
Let the cross of Christ be your comfort,
Let the comfort of Jesus be your experience,
Let the experience of Jesus cause you never to stray from His cross.
Grace and peace to you
Love
