Saturday 23rd April - The Shepherd

Good evening, we have had an excellent day enjoying time to rest and relax with family. I did not sleep overly well last night due to my back and so took some time to rest this morning and have spent most of the day sitting and resting. Anne has been out and enjoyed the sunshine with family. We have had another barbecue this evening too and are now relaxing by watching TV. We are both still in good spirits and know God is with us in this.

It is Easter weekend and a time when we reflect on what God has done for us. I have really enjoyed growing with the Lord over the past few months. God really does answer prayer and He truly is with us. Hebrews says 'Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep equip you with everything good for doing His will and may He work in us what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ to whom be glory forever and ever'. He is the shepherd that guides us through life and He deserves all the glory. Praise Him for all He is and for His character.

Verse of the day: Isaiah 41 v 10

Prayer of the day: Praise the Lord for all he has done and for his promises never failing. Praise Him for the answered prayer so far and for him to answer the ones to come. Pray for God to heal me of this cancer. Pray for a better nights rest and for us to wake up feeling refreshed. Pray for our families as they walk this path with us and for them to cling to the Lord. Pray for people to come to Him this Easter time.

  1. Hi Glenn, I meant what I said yesterday, about your blog being an absolute witness and encouragement. But I also know how important prayer is and pray God continues to stir up many many hearts to support you and Anne and the family in prayer at this time. Oh yes, Peter Kay was great by the way, can't believe he got a standing ovation as he played a shovel!!!

    Lots of love & prayers,
