Thought for the Day by Simon James-Morse
​(Minister for Goldstone Church)

​                                                 What’s Your One Thing?
 
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenwards in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:13-14

The phrase “one thing” is significant and important. It appears in other parts of the Bible, e.g.

  • Jesus said to the rich young man, “One thing you lack” (Mark 10:21).

  • Jesus explained to Martha, “There is only one thing worth being concerned about.” (Luke 10:42 NLT).

  • The blind man testified, “One thing I do know.” (John 9:25).

  • King David prayed, “The one thing I ask of the Lord – the thing I seek most” (Psalm 27:4 NLT).

As followers of Jesus Christ, are we too involved in “many things”? We may be doing many good, right, and God-honouring things; but are they deflecting us away from the “one thing” that God is wanting us to do?
 
In Philippians 3:13, the Apostle Paul says that one of the essentials of being a Christian is to concentrate on “one thing”. This is a statement of devotion to God. His Christianity was not a sideshow; it wasn’t just a part of his life – it was his life!
 
As Christians today, we need to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to running the Christian race. We need a fresh desire for a life that honours Jesus.
 
Let us pray as King David prayed,
“Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.” (Psalm 86:11).
Simon

FEAST Prayer Meeting this Sunday

Picture
This Sunday (5th September), Feast, our 18's-25's group at BH would love to invite you to join us for a prayer meeting after the evening service in the church lounge. We'll be spending some time praying for our students and other young people before they head off to new things later in the month. It would be great for a big group of us to be there to support them as a church (we won't be going on too late!). 
Looking forward to seeing you there
God bless
Alex

Family Quiz

Picture
Saturday afternoon 4th September 4.30pm
A 'Super' quiz for all the family!  Fun questions for all ages.
Great opportunity to invite another family or some friends to join you and make a team. A good balanced team with some toddlers, teenagers and grown-ups will give you the best chance of winning!! (You could also join up with others to form a team when you arrive.)
Extra points may be awarded to anyone who comes dressed as a superhero!
Tea time snacks will be available.
Please book a place for your group. On Churchsuite or on the website
 
Covid safety: You are not required to wear a mask for the quiz but if you would like to that is absolutely fine. We will be keeping the groups fairly spaced out but if you are concerned about distancing, let us know on arrival and we can help you to find a place where you can feel comfortable. You won't be forced to make a team with others if you'd prefer not to!
