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)
It seems a long while since we went first to the seaside with our small children. The excited preparations that were made, and the pre-emptive discussions about how we might ‘rush into the waves’ are distant memories. Being fortunate enough to live within easy reach of Southwold, we discovered that to rent a beach hut…
‘More than one new Bible or New Testament launched every week’ that is the amazing claim in the recently published report (2021-22) of Wycliffe Bible Translators (wycliffe.org.uk). Behind the news is the unflinching commitment of hundreds of translators and back-up workers with the financial and prayer support of thousands around the world. They all want…
For too many years in our marriage, I thought of gardening as a necessary evil to be undertaken as quickly as possible so we could go out and enjoy ourselves. Because of my limited knowledge, I was safe to look after the grass area especially as I once proudly announced I had removed a bramble…
My husband and I travelled over to Sutton Hoo a few Wednesdays ago to watch the Red Rose Company perform Shakespeare’s Macbeth at the “Theatre in the Forest”. I was rather like a Circuit outing with a member from Felixstowe, Framlingham, and myself in the audience. (You know who you are!) It was a fantastic…
Without any shame whatsoever I am taking the opportunity to advertise a brilliant book, North to Alaska by Trevor Lund. Over the years I have loved reading about people who have set out to do the impossible. Just over twenty years ago, Trevor set out from Ushuaia at the southernmost tip of Argentina with all…
The Thought for the Day is from Micah 5 v 4.He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they will live securely, for then his greatness will reach to the ends of the earth. Can meekness and majesty…
Last October I wrote about the contrast afforded by a dead tree. It was an old friend but the time has come for change; it has been cut down and the stump pulled out. It was probably becoming dangerous and was certainly in the way of farm machinery. Someone has gained a useful supply of…
The Thought for the Day is from Hebrews 4 v 12.For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart Author Ronald B. Schwartz asked scores of well-known contemporary writers to name the books that…
Everything is going up. It’s in the news every day. Energy prices are going up. Petrol and diesel costs are going up. Food prices are going up. Taxes are going up. Inflation is increasing. Childcare costs are going up. Is there anything at all that is not going up ? Yes, there is. The grace…
I was interested to read William Glasse’s TFTD a few weeks back on the verses from Micah 6:8 “what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” William’s thoughts took me back to the time I spent in court – my first time on jury…
