On Monday through to Saturday, I link an image to a theme in the Bible, with a podcast lasting about 10 minutes, which I hope brings hope and strength to anyone listening.

    Abundant living (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    Today I find myself reflecting again on Jesus's words that he has "come so that they may have life and have it to the full" (John 10:10). This was in the context of him being the Shepherd and we are His sheep. God has so much for us but do we receive it? Think of the power source of an old music device, such as a tape recorder, which it needs to be attached to. However, even then, the green power switch needs to be on and then the Play button needs to be pressed. With that analogy can you see th

    Faith drives away fear (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Yesterday we reflected on the absence of fear when we really trust in God's love for us individually. Another way of putting it, is that Faith (in God), drives away Fear. Sometimes we can lose sight of the simplicity of God's Words to us, to encourage us to trust Him always. In Mark 11:24 Jesus is recorded as saying, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours". Prayer is not saying 'I want and give me'. It is heartfelt communica

    A scarecrow (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Today I envisaged a straw-stuffed scarecrow. Scarecrows can generate a comfortable feeling such as of the amiable character in The Wizard of Oz film or in the English nursery rhyme, "I'm a Dingle Dangle Scarecrow with a flippy floppy hat ...". However, in contrast, there is a horror film with a scary grotesque scarecrow, which can generate fear. Just as none of these scarecrows are actually real, our fears can be based on fictitious scarecrows. 1 John 4:18: "There is no fear in love, but perfect

    Take time to stand and stare (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Today seems to be a sequel to yesterday's audio Devotional in that a friend who had listened to it, told me of a poem called 'Leisure' by William Henry Davies. The first and last lines read, "What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare?" The body of the poem provides awesome examples of nature which we would miss unless we are intentional about looking out for them. "to stand and stare" reminds us to be still and thus see awesome aspects of nature. "Be still and know t

    Victory in Nature (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Today I saw a green V embedded in beautiful foliage, bringing to mind the ultimate victory we have in God through nature. The perfect natural beauty of the Garden of Eden was marred after Adam and Eve sinned but within all the death and decay springs hope with the new life, such as decomposed plants for fertiliser and reproduction springing from dried seeds. God wants us to look at His handiwork and love through nature despite fallen mankind. "For since the creation of the world, God's invisible
