lucky, happy, busy...All views are my own, I thought them up myself

[C. S. Lewis @CSLewisDaily]

"God will invade. But I wonder whether people who ask God to interfere openly and directly in our world quite realise what it will be like when He does. When that happens, it is the end of the world. When the author walks on to the stage the play is over."

even so…

In 12 hours time I will have finished my first sunrise Easter service 🤓

“There comes a moment when the children who have been playing at burglars hush suddenly: was that a real footstep in the hall? There comes a moment when people who have been dabbling in religion (Man’s search for God) suddenly draw back. Supposing we really found Him?"

Mad crazy day at the end of a mad crazy week. Refocused back on God today and these Stormzy lyrics sum life up beautifully tonight: You saved this kid and I'm not your first
It's not by blood and it's not by birth
But oh my God what a God I serve ☝️

“We can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”

"There comes a moment when people who have been dabbling in religion (‘Man’s search for God!’) suddenly draw back. Supposing we really found Him? We never meant it to come to that! Worse still, supposing He had found us?”

@solar_bud I read the former as the moment of turning back to God, to the light, and away from the darkness which it was in previously. A personal darkness to which I will not return. It is the light that lights the way through darkness to come.

@jam1861 A fourth industrial revolution? Sounds like Oldham should be leading that - after all we led the first, and arguably best, one!

[Jenni Barker @jbmoc2017]

@solar_bud Until then, you’ll have to stick with easy peelers 😂

[Jenni Barker @jbmoc2017]

@solar_bud It really does - my thoughts exactly!

@solar_bud I thought your tweet was an exclamation of surprise! 🤪😂

"Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the world in letters too large for some to see."

"God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn't."

@solar_bud Is there a burnt piece of toast playing a clarinet? 😂

[Jenni Barker @jbmoc2017]

@solar_bud It is. I dread to think how much time I’ve sunken into social media. Terrifying...a total break is so worth doing if only just to prove to yourself that you can do it!

[Jenni Barker @jbmoc2017]

@solar_bud In contrast I give you the Readers Digest which requires rumination to best enjoy...
