Just reading this great book. The closing sentence in the book was just what I needed to hear: "suddenly a voice roared from the touchline, Ollerton, it's ok to lose, but don't quit! That truth spurred me on." @biblesociety@AndyOllerton@GlosDioc@StroudwaterTeam
@sandieshoes@DrSusanDenim Well said, I've looked at some of her posts, truly rude and childish. I want to hear reasonable discourse and ideas not infantile comments.
This is adjacent to our hotel @beHOTEL_Malta where we stayed in Malta. Every time we walked past I wanted to burst into song. But do you know what song though? It was a great stay and I loved the Island.
You go to work for 40 years (I'm currently at 42).
Youโre forced into autoโenrolment. You play by the rules, you save into a pension on the promise itโs yours.
Then Labour strolls in, waves through a law that lets ministers tell your scheme where to gamble those savings โ not for your benefit, but to prop up their economic โstrategyโ and vanity infrastructure schemes that the market wonโt fund.
This isnโt prudence. It isnโt โmodernisationโ. It is a straightforward transfer of control from the saver to the state.
Hands off our pensions. Share this before they pretend nobody noticed.
Last night my 12 year old granddaughter performed for the first time since her epilepsy diagnosis. Performing with her friend Delia at a local church, entertaining people from nursing homes with dementia. This is their performance of โwhat is this feelingโ from the musical WICKED.
Please like and share ๐๐
I once gave up chocolate for Lentโฆ
and yes, it was a challenge ๐ซ๐
But Lent isnโt really about the chocolate.
Itโs about refocusing our hearts.
Making space.
Preparing for Easter.
As Lent begins today, ask yourself:
what will I do this season to make space for Jesus?
#LentStartsToday #AshWednesday #EasterIsComing #FaithJourney #ChristianLife #Hope
Today is Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of the season of Lent. โ๏ธ
At church services today, people will have a cross of ash marked on their foreheads, to symbolise mortality and repentance.

Prayer for Ash Wednesday
Almighty God, you have given your only Son to be for us a sacrifice for sin & an example of godly life: give us grace that we may always receive these inestimable gifts & daily endeavour to follow the steps of his holy life; through Christ our Lord. Amen
