As my mum always used to say, “I love a family” – and that ‘s what we are – a family of God’s children here at ABC. I’m sure that Billy Graham would certainly agree as he once said, “The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life.” So, this week let’s celebrate and enjoy being ‘family’.

This week, I was challenged by this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson, a poet, essayist and philosopher who wrote in 1860, ‘You can never do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.’ So let me ask you, how you getting on with ‘Loving your neighbour as yourself?’ Well perhaps we should all take notice of Waldo’s quote and do an unexpected kindness to a neighbour this week You might be surprised by the result. Tea and cake is always a good start!

As we approach our Love Aldwick summer celebration, just remember this inspirational quote by Eric Liddell: “We are all missionaries. Wherever we go we either bring people nearer to Christ, or we repel them from Christ.” The Love Aldwick events often bring non-Christians into the church – so please make sure you radiate the love of Jesus to everyone you meet!

This weekend’s service centres on Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 1: that we would know “His incomparably great power for us who believe.”. Inspired by this verse C T Studd once wrote “Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible.” It’s time to dream the impossible dream – and then make it happen in the power of the Holy Spirit.

“We are not here to sit in the darkness, but to shine His light into it. Christ is the Light—our job is to carry Him to the ends of the earth” – C T Studd. As believers, let’s not keep the light to ourselves. This week, in your words, in your kindness, in your courage—be someone who carries Christ’s light into dark places. A smile, a prayer, a helping hand may shine brighter than you know.
