Thought for the month of March.
Well, we are nearly through the Winter, don’t forget to put your clocks forward on the 30th of March.
This winter has flown by for me, it only seems like yesterday that we altered the clocks for the winter months and now we are shortly changing them back again.
I didn’t make any New Year Resolutions this year because I never keep them, but I did resolve that for Lent this year I would save all my lose change and give it to Water Aid having recently seen an advertisement on the T.V that pointed out that there are still many, many people that do not have clean water in the world. I may have to put some money towards my change because it is increasingly difficult to pay with cash. Have you found that? Car parks that took cash went over to us having to pay with our credit cards and now I have been to 3 different car parks in the last week and each one is asking me to pay with ‘Ring Go’. Now being in the senior generation, I was not familiar with this, so I had to ask my daughter what it was all about. She of course told me that it is simple, all I have to do is go to my ‘App Store’, - where’s that I ask myself - search for ‘Ring Go’, download it and follow the instructions – simple! Well, it has just taken me a good half hour to complete this on my phone!!! And of course, I have yet to try it out when I get to the next ‘Ring Go’ car park.
Having done this it has occurred to me that many Charities will lose a huge chunk of their income because their boxes that used to sit on shop counters and in restaurants will no longer be getting the lose change because there won’t be any!
Am I the only one who is increasingly finding that technology is moving so fast that I am getting left behind? Oh…I have just remembered I had a telephone call from my T.V people and they told me that I have all sorts of things available to me just by pressing a button and speaking into my T.V handset. That has really amused me because I tried to get the subtitles on the program my husband and I were watching last night, I pressed the said button and said…’subtitles on’…. and nothing happened……????
Back to something I do understand…. Many people will just ignore Lent, some will not even know what Lent is and some will just say I don’t believe in God and not give the warnings given to us in the Bible a second thought. But what if we wake up tomorrow morning only to find that Jesus has returned to the earth and those that know Him have been taken up to join all our fellow brothers and sisters in eternity just as we have been promised and those still on the earth have to face Jesus’s judgement. Do you understand what I am saying, or have you not been told that Jesus is coming back and what will happen when he does? If what I am saying is a mystery to you, come and join us at the Chapel on a Sunday evening when we will help you to understand the Bible and learn about our Saviour, Jesus!
We look forward to welcoming you on a Sunday evening in the Chapel at 6-30 pm!! Or on
