A special gift - some space to pause, reflect and refresh.
Many of us are weary and perhaps feeling dry or even hopeless. On Monday, as we were praying, verses of encouragement and hope kept coming into my mind, one after another, almost like the autocue going mad. Added to this, we are currently in the middle of the Jewish celebration Sukkot or the Feast of Tabernacles. This is a time to celebrate God’s provision and care for us, to rejoice, but also to be reminded that He has promised to “tabernacle” or dwell with us and within us. We have become His dwelling place.
In the light of all this, I felt to put together a little space for each of you to hit the pause button on life, reflect on scripture and be refreshed in the presence of Jesus. Enjoy! (There is around 17 minutes of interactive material, with a few more minutes at the end to simply be and allow the music to wash over you.)
If you would like to prepare before you start, the Scriptures are: Matthew 11:28-30; Ps 23; Is 40:28-31; Is 35:1,3,6,7; John 4:13-14 and John 7:37-38. The Matthew verses are from The Passion, Is 35 from the NIV and all others are from the Complete Jewish Bible.
