I HEARD the voice of Jesus say, 'Come unto me and rest; Lay down thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon My breast!' I came to Jesus as I was, Weary and worn, and sad; I found in Him a resting-place, And He has made me glad.
Horatius Bonar 1808-89 โ feeling humble
A Man Called Matthew - "I wonder what use he can make of me?" asked Spurgeon aloud and on behalf of each member of his congregation in April 1885. I wonder what use He can make of you? https://t.co/ySpBKzNnYM via @Langford_Chapel
The "I am" Statements of #Jesus were the focus of this week's bible study and they made for a lively and insightful debate. https://t.co/faAb1NPxG1 via @Langford_Chapel
We cannot know the mind of God... his ways are not ours. But we can do our best to understand what has been revealed to us through The Word. https://t.co/dMLpb7ujyO
'Just Believe!' that's what Jesus said. Don't agree? Read on because, in these excerpts from the Word of God, He says it over and over and over again. Just in case there was any doubt. https://t.co/aZ8I4jISsp via @Langford_Chapel
"Fickle Followers" was Spurgeon's term for them, those men who turned down the opportunity to follow Jesus in His lifetime, citing excuses that may seem reasonable even now to us. But what an opportunity. https://t.co/hvIYHGxOY8 via @Langford_Chapel
When Sparks Fly - whilst it may not always be as dramatic on the eye as Michaeangelo's Sistene Chapel, encounters with Jesus are more common than we might think! https://t.co/9tuYufducc via @Langford_Chapel
On a Plate - no we haven't started serving up breakfast on a Sunday morning, but were still blessed to have the "Holy Spirit" on our menu today... https://t.co/cpjfxOvFGu via @Langford_Chapel
In His Hands - there was no 'I' in Jesus' team. Read on to find out more and read John 17: 1-26 to see how Jesus prayed for everyone else, including us, even in His moment of greatest need. https://t.co/ZcyEwhipmy via @Langford_Chapel
"My Peace I give you" said #Jesus - after all, it's in him and it's His to give - the world can move over, it doesn't have a say in the matter. https://t.co/GpNlgzw0NK via @Langford_Chapel
Do you need some garage time with #jesus? If you're a Christian, it's a dead cert and Sunday is the best day for it. Just check out our friends at Worship Harvest for more. https://www.worshipharvest.orghttps://langfordevangelicalchurch.org/f/garage-time via @Langford_Chapel
Scandalous Simplicity - let's not overcomplicate the message! Paul was ahead of his time in keeping things simple when it came to communications, as attested to by this sermon focused on chapter 10 of Romans. https://t.co/sxDQh1YmNA via @Langford_Chapel
"I told you so!"
Jesus would have been forgiven had he said that to his disciples on his return from the tomb, after he had told them 3 times what would happen. Instead, he chose to reinforce their faith by proving his divinity. https://t.co/w6ILX1PS7Y via @Langford_Chapel
Bring it on! #Jesus won his own personal battle against temptation in the garden of #Gethsemane, and in so doing set himself up for ultimate victory at Calvary. https://t.co/G8LufmQz3v via @Langford_Chapel
God's Hidden Ones - if you think that you go under the radar as a follower of #Christ, think again ... you're never not noticed! https://t.co/HmD5oL9T1X
Embracing the Power - ever driven a Landrover Defender through a flooded landscape in #Uganda? Well, Gideon has and he shared his experience with us today, and how the experience opened his eyes to the power of the #HolySpirit. https://t.co/k2p72Mzj0H via @Langford_Chapel
"Listen to Him!" said God to Peter, John and James. to Him. To Jesus. Even before God, we must listen to Him. https://t.co/CaQ105EPq3 via @Langford_Chapel
Him, There. A second chance to catch up on last Sunday's service and to hear from visiting preacher Paul Hill, whose Spurgeon-like focus settled on just two words from Matthew's gospel - "Him, there." https://t.co/uj89MKayFT via @Langford_Chapel
An Unlikely Audience between #Jesus and a Roman Centurion. As is so often the case with the #Bible , we don't know his name but the lesson of his life cries out to us from the pages of history. Please watch. https://t.co/p4Ve2fOvEV via @Langford_Chapel
Telling it how it is! Jesus didn't often lose His cool - but when faced with the Pharisees his calm demeanour may have been put to the test as this scene from Luke's Gospel illustrates. https://t.co/PAwNM2oFZ5 via @Langford_Chapel
