Thoughts from the minister's home
Dear friends,
Spring beckons! Yes, the sight of those daffodils getting ready to flower is a joyus sight. The Lord never ceases to amaze us. His glory is displayed in so many ways. In creation we are made aware of His great power. It always amazes us how Jesus can dwell in the hearts of sinful men.
Yours in Him, Christine.
