Vicar/Reader's Monthly Message

God has your back 

By the time you get round to reading this I will be on holiday in Benidorm. God willing I will not have fainted as happened the last time I tried to holiday abroad. The children will be back in school and colleges and universities will be getting ready to open in the next couple of weeks. I’m sure you will join me in wishing them all well for the future.

As I found out last October, we don’t know what is around the corner. The one sure thing I do know is that God was and is with me. From the paramedics, to the hospital staff, who never left me for more than 15 minutes at a time.

We are told in the Bible that God knows us and has our life planned even at conception, knowing every hair on our head. So what goes wrong? Well, people don't always follow God’s plans for us. We go our own way, led astray by people.

I believe if we take our lives to God in prayer he will show us the way we should go, putting the right people in our path. 

So whatever life throws at you, God has your back.
