This week try to spend a few minutes thinking about the things God has done for you in the past. Thank Him and be ready to receive more from Him.

This week, no matter what you are going through, spend some time thinking about this quote from Tim Keller, ‘Christ literally walked in our shoes.’ Jesus understands you better than you understand yourself because He suffered more abuse, more pain and more cruelty when He was here on earth than we ever will.

This week remember to ‘Run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith’ (Hebrews 12:1,2). This is especially true when the going gets tough!

Did you know that you are part of a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God? Well, you do now and that should really make you want to declare the praises of Him who called you (1 Peter 2:9).

Since love is in the air this weekend at ABC, let’s are abe reminded to, ‘Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever’ Psalm 118:1)

This week, do think about this quote by Hans urs von Balthasar, “What you are is God’s gift to you, what you become is your gift to God.” Now that is a challenge for us all!

This week Simon will be talking about revival, so why not spend some time thinking about this quote from A T Pierson, “There has never been a spiritual awakening in any country or locality that did not begin in united prayer..”

In a weekend when the coronation of King Charles III has dominated the news, this quote will remind you that spending time with the King of Kings will change your life forever.

“As you spend time with the King of kings and the Lord of lords, His attitude becomes your attitude.” (Andrew Wommack).

Do you sometimes think the small acts of kindness you do are insignificant? Is so, then be encouraged by these words of Mother Teresa.

“Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”

C T Studd once said, “True religion is like the smallpox. If you get it, you give it to others and it spreads.” I wonder, how infectious are you?
