Fighting the Monday Feeling

Martin Cole | 13 Jun 2011

O LORD, you are my God;
I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness
you have done marvelous things,
things planned long ago.
(Isaiah 25 v 1)

So much to praise God for: His faultless faith; the incredible things He's done; His perfect plans.

Being noticed

Tom Beard | 31 May 2011

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
