a Jesus thought...
Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?(Mark 4:21)
a Godly thought...
The genius of Wesley and his value as a theologian was his capacity to synthesize the essential teachings of different theological strands, and then communicate the result with simplicity to the laity. (p95 Webb)
a leading thought...
Discernment enables a leader to see a partial picture, fill in the missing pieces intuitively, and find the real heart of a matter. (p48 Maxwell)

a Dave thought...
"Much, we many never know. But this I do know. Mainy was no different to everyone else in this community who has hurts and wounds which are in need of healing." Theses were the words spoken at Chris Mainwaring's (Age 41) funeral yesterday. When it comes to people one image that I have continued to share over the years is that of the mirror. Geoff Ryan used this image to explain that some of us have only a tiny crack and others of us have many cracks but we are all an imperfect mirror. What I like about this image is that is very easy when we are helping people or become aware of problems like Chris Mainwaring's that we look down on them or judge them for not being as together as us. But this image reminds me that none of us are perfect and we have issues that we are doing our best to overcome. I just pray that we will ask God to help us and for those that are struggling through life without Him - God is the ultimate healer and to engage in a relationship with Jesus is well worth the conversation.

Just a thought.
