Every day we post a Thought for the day written by someone within the circuit. Some are very light hearted and some are very deep theologically with all bases between covered.
We hope these will encourage, uplift and make you reflect but most of all we hope you enjoy reading these small daily snippets and take some inspiration on your daily journey
“I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go” (Genesis 28:15)
I have had water on the brain recently, and not just because of the recent flooding in Suffolk, about which more next week. Before the inundation of Framlingham by a couple of days, I had made myself quite ill, temporarily, by sheer stupidity. To cut a long story short, I had a metal water bottle…
Sometimes, I start writing a Thought for the Day and for whatever reason, it doesn’t quite get finished. Interestingly, one of those was one that I began writing back in May when we were approaching our first wedding anniversary and I was recalling all of the changes that wonderful day brought with it. New house,…
Isaiah 30 verse 21 Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” The phrase at the end of the verse came to mind following our decision to enjoy two days away including an overnight stay. After visiting the beautiful grounds…
A couple of weeks ago I played in “The last Night of the Proms.” Not THE last night of the Proms, but our local small town variety. Members of our local town orchestra with a few guests brought the old favourites as well as a stunning performance of Greig’s Piano Concerto, with the soloist from…
Karen and I were married just over thirty-eight years ago, I often think back to our wedding day, I could cope with the ceremony and even the speeches, my greatest fear was our first dance. We took to the floor, neither Karen or I were dancers and as the music began, we kind of shuffled…
A few months ago, I wrote about my first attempt at growing tomatoes. I fed and watered them and put in supports as necessary. Daily checks were carried out and I worried about them if it was very windy. I also counted them as I picked them to eat. The final total was 265/267. (I…
Every month seems to come round quicker and quicker! Here we are in the month of Remembrance once again. Thinking about the Gunpowder plot, laying explosives under the Houses of Parliament, resonates with what is going on in Gaza as I write this. The tunnels packed with weaponry by Hamas under innocent buildings with people…
There is an important place for those who can think and behave in unorthodox ways; without them we would not develop exciting new technologies, exceed old limits, or crack long standing problems. Free Spirits can also be disruptive in a destructive way and do harm, they may exploit vulnerabilities and they sometimes unknowingly bring anxiety…
Sir, I have no husband Here at Seaton Road Methodist we resumed “Time 4 You” for the winter months, where sessions use the practise of “Godly Play” to look at a visual presentation that takes you on a personal level into a story & then we discuss & “wonder”. In October we looked into “The…
Many of us will have experienced some amount of flooding as a result of storm Babet. Where I live, apart from the inconvenience of not having easy access into town, there was not much damage. There was a slightly anxious moment when water was flowing from our pond (drainage ditch off the fields) across the…
