Let us worship God
The highway led to the middle of absolutely nowhere or the middle of absolutely everywhere depending on how you look at it.   Ben Sherwood-'The man who ate a 747.

We proclaim Christ crucified. He is the power of God and the wisdom of God.  1 Corinthians 1: 23,24.

​Let us worship God.

1 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Hark! all the tribes 'Hosanna!' cry;
O Saviour meek, pursue thy road with palms
​and scattered garments strowed.

2 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
O Christ, thy triumphs now begin
o'er captive death and conquered sin.

3 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
look down with sad and wondering eyes
to see the approaching sacrifice.

4 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh;
the Father on his sapphire throne
awaits his own anointed Son.

5 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
ow thy meek head to mortal pain,
hen take, O God, thy power, and reign


​A closing thought
​Sitting before Jesus during anxious times
Luke 19: 'Faith working in the realities of life
Where are you God? You are in the heart and soul of Jesus and you are here with us as we travel through these anxious times.
God of palm Sunday, open our ears and eyes. Speak to our individual needs, our hopes, our cities, we pray
Amen (Donald Hilton)

​Bible reading plan
 oHere's a simple bible reading plan for the next few weeks taken from Janie Stuart's favourite Bible commentator-Dale Bruner. He calls it making a home with Jesus. (John 15). His suggestion is that we read a a book a month, reading a chapter a day and think about what we have read and what is happening in our lives. Since some books are have fewer chapters than days in the month, then you either get to have a few days holiday or spend time chewing over passages that caught your attention in that particular book.
His scheme for the next few months would be:
March: Luke 1-24
April: John 1-21
May: Acts 1-28
June: Romans: 1-16
We are part way through the gospel of Luke in the church so I would suggest the following:
March 22 to April 12 Luke 10 -24
April 13 to May 3: John 1-21
May: Acts 1-28 which would gets us back onto Dale's plan but let us read and reflect on the Easter story at Easter.
