With My WholeHeart - Psalm 39:1, 4, 5
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 39:1, 4, 5 The tongue and heart, two organs at the centre of life. As this psalm shows, what goes on in the metaphorical heart eventually comes out through the tongue literally. Bridling the tongue and muzzling the mouth especially when faced with those who have it in for y…

With My WholeHeart - Psalm 19:8, 14-15

Psalm 19.8, 14, 15 The statutes of the Lord are right, and rejoice the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, and giveth light unto the eyes. Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart: be alway acceptable in thy sight, O Lord: my strength, and my redeemer...

A Bit Like Jesus - Humility and justice
by SPCK - Robin Gill
WEEK 6 Humility Humility and justice He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and regarded others with contempt: ‘Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax-collector. The Pharisee, standing by himself, wa…

With My WholeHeart - Psalm 9:1
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 9.1 I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will speak of all thy marvellous works. A truly grateful heart is rarely seen or heard. It goes against the grain of entitlement whereby people expect their rights to be delivered. It runs counter to the tenor…

Meditation/ poem: God’s testimony
by Marjorie Dobson
Meditation/ poem: God’s testimony It’s not always easy to keep on believing in God. It may be possible to say that we believe, but in our heart of hearts to know that there is doubt and uncertainty. We are rational beings, or we arrogantly proclaim we are. And in that arrogance l…
Down to the Core
Down to the Core
by Jane Bingham
A meditation on the image of an apple core and a reflection on personal faith. Down to the core I am down to the core The very last remnant Chewed within an inch of all that I am The flesh seemingly spat out by those who do not value me I am down to the core Forced to draw on the…
