Teach us God to value our days that we will want wisdom and learn it. Then let what we do be done in the beauty of You God. (No quotation Sandy has made it her own read it in Psalm 90:12 +17 the verses in between too.) The little girl sat on the stony groundContinue reading “Sassenger and fragility”

Dover to Calais
James speaking about speaking: ‘Out of the mouth comes blessings and cursings. My brothers and sisters, this should not happen.’ James 3:10 Words are very powerful! It takes 1hr 30mins to travel by ferry from Dover to Calais, and the day is so bright and clear that once in Calais, we could still see theContinue reading “Dover to Calais”
A vase of 10 for Spring 2025
The Lord God is a sun and shield. The LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will He withhold from those who walk up rightly. Oh, LORD of hosts, blessed is the person that trusts You. Psalm 84 : 11 I often use the top hat vase to celebrate garden flowers, and hereContinue reading “A vase of 10 for Spring 2025”
A Sabbath walk on paths around Turvile.
God speaking to a ruler/ king: ‘ I will go before you and make the crooked places straight.’ Then this: ‘ …the strength of a nation , as of individuals, is not found in the opportunities or facilities that appear to make them invincible, it is not found in their boasted greatness. It is measuredContinue reading “A Sabbath walk on paths around Turvile.”
Morning sunshine.
Paul speaking: ‘ God has exalted Christ with His right hand to be Prince and Saviour, to give repentance and forgiveness of sins.’ Acts 5:31 We can’t even say sorry without the help of the Holy Spirit. ‘ Those of us / People who are trying to reach heaven by our own works in keepingContinue reading “Morning sunshine.”
The poppy in the garden
A question: ‘ Why do you say Sabbath walks, Sandy?’ If you are new to my posts, here is my answer. We worship on Saturday, which means we go to Sabbath School ( where we study the Bible) and church where there is singing and a sermon. Some of us then walk together in the afternoon,Continue reading “The poppy in the garden”
One lupin,one lily pad, and new ferns wherever.
I’m writing something said by Paul . I write his conclusion first to show why he is so confident, and then I write what sort of situation he has been in, with faith in God. Philippians 4: 19,12,13 Paul speaking: ‘ My God provides my needs because of the abundant resources and glory, which areContinue reading “One lupin,one lily pad, and new ferns wherever.”
Sabbath walk Pewley Down
‘ There is no shadow of turning with God. God is faithful, the Father of lights.’ A little poetry from James 1: 17. The chosen paths, roads take in part of the North Down way and includes the Pilgrim church of Saint Martha. Leaves frame scenes and gives shaped shadow along the way. Let’s travelContinue reading “Sabbath walk Pewley Down”
Plants together in the garden
In this post, I start with two religious quotes. One from the Bible, the other from Bonhoeffer. They then lead me to look at the garden and how things work there. ‘ The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead, He is patient with you, not wanting anyone toContinue reading “Plants together in the garden”
An ‘architectual’ plant?
God is our place of safety, He is our strength. He is present to help. Psalm 46. (I have made these few words my own.) These tulip petals didn’t blow away. All three plants kept their “heads” and became strong distinctive shapes, each with a structure creating a visually impactful presence. They are not largeContinue reading “An ‘architectual’ plant?”
Yellow archangel and the bluebell woods.
In this post, I will look at a verse and then focus on the yellow archangel and the haze of the bluebell woods. I will also include a tree I photographed on 24 April and again on 28 April. Peter speaking: ‘ The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears areContinue reading “Yellow archangel and the bluebell woods.”
A few of the trees in the bluebell woods.
Jesus speaking: ‘Look, I have an open door in front of you, and no person can shut it.’ Revelation 3:8 It is not God’s plan that people are forced to give up their unbelief. There is light and darkness, truth and error. It is for them to decide which to accept. The human is giftedContinue reading “A few of the trees in the bluebell woods.”
