So yesterday was a rather busy day to say the least. We we're involved in four services through the day. Whilst this is fairly normal for lots of people, it was unusually busy for me.
My day began with our usual service (I resist saying the 'normal' service) at Selston.
We then walked to our local residential home, Millington Springs, to share Communion with the residents and their families.
Next came the Anniversary celebration at our Riddings church, just a few miles away.
And finally at six pm we joined the local Church of England, St Helens, for their annual Bereavement Service.
Returning home around 19:45 to my wife Debbie, and a bowl of hot chips, was very welcome. I sat down feeling tired and drained, but also strangely energised and filled with emotion.
Looking back - every service uniquely showed God's love. In very different ways, to very different groups of people.
The location and setting changed, as did the style of service and the personnel involved. But the message and display of love rang clear throughout.
Would I like to be involved in four services every Sunday? Not really. But would I like to witness and be a part of that level of love, service, hope, joy and peace more often? Definitely!
Hope you feel love, joy and peace in your life today.
God bless.
Have a great day
Chris
