Monday 10th January - Enjoyment

Anne and I have had a good day but feel like we have not stopped. We are trying to sell the car and have had a few offers which is good. We have sorted out our house from top to bottom and seem to have our little house in a bit more order. It may not be spring yet but it certaily felt like it today. For people just starting to read this now we went to the hospital last week and they said that the melanoma can be really sensitive or can be resistant its just down to each individual case. Please prayed for the cells to be sensitve to the radiotherapy.

I was reading my book on prayer this morning and was once again really challenged. God wants us to open up every area of our lifes to Him. Jesus prayed constantly to His father and was in constant communication. We should pray for absoloutely everything. Our finances, our words, our families, our work, our lives. John says 'This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us, and if we know that He hears us-whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of hHim. (1 John 5 v 14-15). What an amazing truth. We can come before God and ask and He will grant according to His will.

God is a gracious God who loves His people. We have so much to be thankful for and are blessed with. Food, houses, money, family, friends and most importantly Christ and in that we rest most assuredly. Christ is the greatest blessing of them all and in Him according to His word we will find rest. So rest in the knowledge we have salvation in Him and enjoy the day. Thank you for your constant prayers and support.

Verse for the day: 1 John 5 v 14-15

Prayer for the day: That we would continue to rest in the grace, peace and assurance of God. Continued prayer for the sustaining of our families. That the melanoma cells will be sensitive to the radiotherapy and that the tumour and cancer cells will go by the mighty hand of God. For continued strength and physical rest.
