I thank you Rose <3

Good morning :-)


Thanks everyone. <3

Seeking Godliness...…

Pray for friends to accompany you on the journey. Ask God to connect you with some good friends who are also pursuing spiritual growth so you all can encourage and support each other.

Lord, we thank you for the friends who share our Christian journey; those who support us; those who pray for us and those who love us. Help us to be supportive, prayerful and loving in return. Amen.

David came onto a thread I was on last night to say his wife Ellen was in hospital after a heart attack.

Thoughts for David and Ellen <3

Hello all

Amen to your prayer for today Cynthia.

Thank you Pat for sharing this worrying news about David's wife.

My thoughts and prayers are with David and I hope Ellen is being well cared for in hospital and will be back home with him before too long xx

Picking up on the Friendship theme for today;.......

Heavenly Father,
Please keep my family, friends and loved ones safe.
Watch over them today, and let good health, happiness, and
Your blessings be upon them always.
Amen.

Amen to your prayer for family and friends Kandj. As usual Cynthia is giving us food for thought with this week's posts. Thank you.

Thinking of David and Ellen. I hope Ellen is back home very soon <3

Have just nipped back on here as someone has messaged me about David.

David, I hope and pray that all goes well for your wife at this worrying time. Look after yourself. Love and prayers. Cx

Thoughts and prayers for you both David.

Know how worrying it can be as my son has just come out of hospital
after his heart attack.

David I hope you have had better news by now, best wishes to your wife for a good recovery and to you also. Take care.

I phoned her ward very early this morning then again about 10.30 am.
Was told she was going for a scan and an X ray.
Early this pm they phoned me, said her heart is good, it's not Cardiac
so they were discharging her. An hour later an ambulance brought her home.
So very pleased to have her home <3 <3

Ellen used to be a nurse for many years, first at Sanderson's Orthopaedic Hospital until it closed, then at St Nicholas Hospital until she retired.

That is such good news David! Hopefully a bit of rest will do the trick.

David ............ that is very good news.

Excellent news David :-)

It is very good news. Since her parents died she's been through a lot.
For one reason or another she hasn't even had a holiday.
I wish she'd learned to drive my car, it would have let her get out more.

Good morning :-)


Good news indeed David. So pleased for you both. Take care. x

Our journey towards Godliness....

Help other people to grow spiritually. After you’ve grown to spiritual maturity, you’ll naturally want what God wants – to reach out to others who need to connect with Him through Jesus. God’s love will flow through you to other people, empowering you to encourage them on their Christian journey.

Lord, strengthen me on my journey and help me to reach out to others with gentleness. Amen.

Thank you every one . Ellen slept well <3 <3

Good morning/afternoon :-)

I couldn't get on here this morning so have just nipped back to see if things have settled.

To end our week of exploring Godliness.....

Offer every part of your life to God. Don’t withhold any part of your life from God; invite Him to transform every part of it – from your relationships to your work. Then expect God to do something great through your life.

‘Take my life and let it be, consecrated Lord to thee’

Good morning :-)


The Collect (special prayer) for today :

O Lord, we beseech you mercifully to hear the prayers
of your people who call upon you;
and grant that they may both perceive and know
what things they ought to do,
and also may have grace and power faithfully to fulfil them;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen

The gospel reading tells of the disciples asking Jesus to increase their faith.

Good afternoon to you all :-D <3

I'm happy to report the Ellen is well and happier, now in the knowledge

that her heart and lungs are OK. She's waiting to see her GP about other things.

Me on the other hand have without specific explanation have been very tired

I am pleased to hear Ellen is doing well. David, worry and anxiety can make you feel very tired. Perhaps you will start to feel better now Ellen is on the mend

May I please ask your prayers for an elderly gentleman who lives near me. His wife had to go in a home when he could no longer care for her and sadly she died yesterday. He lost his only child when she was about 30 and has no other relative other than a nephew, who never comes near him. He is grieving and lonely. There must be many others in a similar position so today my thoughts are very much with them <3

Vera I join you in prayer for this elderly gentleman
and others in his position.
I pray that they may find peace and comfort.
