Give God all your cares, for He cares for you. 1 Peter 5: 7 Come let us walk a while on the banks of the shallow , chalk bedded river Test. It’s icy cold, fingers and cheeks sting a little, but it is very still. No air to move a twig or leaf. Our movementContinue reading “A walk on the river Test close to Mottisfont”

A walk in Popeswood Meadow
Here’s a verse that takes me back to days on the farm when large animals were slaughtered. An unpleasant vivid memory . For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than a two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick toContinue reading “A walk in Popeswood Meadow”
Polesdon Lacey
When we were enemies, we were reconciled by Jesus’ death on the cross. ( All the Christmas trees in the world couldn’t do this.) Romans 5:10 I guess on roads we travel, we take opportunities, and some friends wanted to see Polesdon Lacey decked out for Christmas, so we did. The Christmas trees in differentContinue reading “Polesdon Lacey”
Wattlington’s green tree
Look, the Lord’s hand is not too short (infact it is very long reaching right down into your room and thoughts) that it cannot save; neither is He deaf or sleeping that He cannot hear you speak. (speak in strong words to Him. If it is sorry say it. If not then anything. Say it.)Continue reading “Wattlington’s green tree”
Englefield green 3-mile circular walk
The Lord is near the broken hearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 34 : 18 A mixed emotion walk: Down a muddy root crossed path. Today, the sun shines through a memorial to 20,000 airmen and women lost in the Second World War. It is regretful that the world still kills rather thanContinue reading “Englefield green 3-mile circular walk”
Tinned mushroom and tomato soup.
You, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

IContinue reading “Tinned mushroom and tomato soup.”
A Sabbath circular walk at Pinkney Green
Let us not get tired of doing good, for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6 : 9 Life is all about sharing. If we are good at something, pass it on . That is the pleasure I get from teaching – whether it isContinue reading “A Sabbath circular walk at Pinkney Green”
A sabbath walk of 4 miles at Mortimer
Jesus makes some mud with His spit and some dust. He puts it on a blind man’s eyes and asks him to wash in a pool. The man can see . He does this on the Sabbath day and the Pharisees are upset…Jesus’ words end the chapter :’ if you were blind , you shouldContinue reading “A sabbath walk of 4 miles at Mortimer”
4 mile Sabbath walk at Burnham Beeches
Happy are those who don’t walk in step with the wicked… but who are happy to obey God’s law…that person is like a tree planted by water… they grow well… and whatever they do prospers.

A Sabbath walk by the Kennet River and Canal.
God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ… Gal.6:14 A moody afternoon . No sun , no rain, a cool breeze in your face. It was a pleasant day to walk a few miles. I won’t be here in this space this coming week. Take care. Sandy 🙂

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for You have created me and us and everything for your pleasure. Thank you for including all of us. Revelations 4:11 (Sandy’s wording and thought at the end.) A helping word to one in trouble is often like a switch on a railroadContinue reading “Sabbath 5mile walk at Harpsden and those August flowers in September”
