Thought for the Day by Ben Martin (Curate)

​Well that’s Easter finished. Decorations down (yes, we try and have some up), Easter eggs finished (truth be told we may have started these before Easter) and hot cross buns away (for at least a week… they are good all year round!)
 
But here is a truth which we all know… the hope of Easter never comes down, is never finished and is never put away.
 
This low week after Easter when things seem a little quieter, when our focus shifts from building up to that great day to some day in the future (Christmas dare I say).
 
But because of Easter God’s focus has not shifted.
 
His focus is upon Jesus, the one whom he loves, the one who bled and died for you and for me upon a cross and the one who was raised from death to bring light and life.
 
And today that hope is yours and mine, whether we feel like it or not.
 
Why not read through these words and praise God afresh today.
 
Lamentations 3:22-23
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,
    his mercies never come to an end;
 they are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.
 
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
 
Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
 
1 John 3:1
See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God.
​Ben
