Saturday 2nd April - Let us boast in Christ.

Good evening. We have enjoyed a relaxed day with friends and family. We slept well and woke well rested. We visited Marks and Spencers where everyone seemed to have descended. My mum and brother came for lunch. A friend then came to visit us this afternoon which was lovely. We have played games and watched some sport and are settling in for a well rested evening. We are feeling mentally well and are enjoying spending time with family. 1 Corinthians 1 v26-31 says 'Brothers and sisters think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and despised things and the things that are not to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before Him. It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written "Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord". Let us boast in the Lord and realise this world is not all there is and we have God as our strength and portion. Verse for the day: Romans 6 Prayer for the day: Pray for our attitude in Christ and for to us to really trust in Christ. Pray for the continued success and working of the Chemotherapy and for God to take the cancer from my body. Pray for our sleep to be good again tonight and for my physical state to continue to be well enough to cope with the every day rigours of life. Pray for our families that the Lord would be their rock and fortress; helping to deal with all they have too. Pray for the people who we witness too and for people to come to Christ.
