God Of All (An alphabet acrostic celebration)
I accepted a challenge from Faithful Bloggers (a group of Christian bloggers) to follow the acrostic style of Psalms that start with A and go to Z (in Hebrew, Not English) and it has taken me acouple of weeks to complete it. Hope you enjoy it. Try it… you’ll be surprised.

God Hangs Pictures?
A builder’s message struck a whimisical vision of God’s process of become part of our whole lives. This is something we see as people who claim to be Christians never make God part of their lives outside of church. Anger is never conquered, harsh judgements continue, conflict swilrs around them, and there is no peace. And these thing wear us down as well as confuse people who look to us as examples of what it means to let God into their lives.

Crawl Over The Rubbish
The sunday School lesson was on Nehmiah chapter four about the rebuilding of the walls of Jeruselem, and the mocking of the peopel who were working. But the thing that struck me was a visual picture of the workers crawling over the rubbish, picking up the good rocks to use again to repair the wall. It’s a lesson in perserverance, reliance on God, and crawling over the rubbish of modern life to have joy in our life in Christ. This devotion was good for me….
