Jesus

Reminiscing. . .

Posted on by Marc Lesley

I’m sat in a little cafe it’s a greasy spoon!, it’s decor is historic but it’s service is perfectly quaint...

Earlier I sat with a mate of mine we were eating a breakfast that most wouldn’t manage but we dutifully polished off every morsel. . .

As we chewed our way through we chatted about the past. . .laughing at times remembering that when past events were occurring they seemed so crucial, but on reflection now appear trivial!. . .

It’s great having the past to reflect on its in some ways, critical for the future. . .

Isn’t life great!. . .

Deep Waters…

Im sat drinking a cup of coffee with sweetener, and I’m pondering a piece of scripture…

This is the scripture I’m pondering…

Jesus Walks on the Water

Mat 14:22-33

Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds.

And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone,

but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them.

Comfortable…

Posted on by Marc Lesley

I’m sat in this posh venue I can tell that it is posh because the leather seats are genuinely made of leather and the cost of my coffee tells me I must be drinking ‘gold leaf!’. . .

I’m not sure how to behave!. . .you see I’m so used to sitting on worn seats and in slightly weathered places. . .

I kind of feel a little. . .’uncomfortable!’. . .

I really want to take off my shoes and kick back. . .

I want to seriously ‘slob out’ on these expensive looking seats, but I’m sure it would be frowned upon, by the immaculately dressed staff! . .

It’s funny how with age we begin to understand ourselves!, what we like, what we don’t!. . .what makes us tick and what gives us the most enjoyment.

I recall the days when any venue would do as long as the drinks were cheap and the music loud!. . .

Now I’m a bit more selective. My ears won’t tolerate loud noise for a length of time. . .I’m fussy who I let sit at my table. . .and I am very selective with whom I talk to. . .

Hysterical

Posted on by Marc Lesley

I’m sat here having a coffee & I can hear someone having a right old laugh!.

Its funny the more I can hear them, the more I’m sat here grinning, I have no idea what they are laughing about but for some unknown reason my cheek muscles have stretched my jaw into a beaming smile. . .quite odd!. . .

To You With Love…

Posted on by Marc Lesley

It’s been a while since we chatted and I have often wondered how you are.

_________________________________________________________________

The froth on my vending machine coffee is disintegrating, and the edge of my crisp is fighting to delve into the vacant void where my recently excavated tooth once lived.

Outside the rain has reduced to a gentle drizzle and the air is crisp.

_________________________________________________________________

I have often sat and wondered what your up to, how your days have been filled, and wether your doing ok.

Fathers Day

Posted on by Marc Lesley

**
To All The Dads In The World. . .

To all dads who have dedicated time, finances and emotional support to their children, we want to say ‘Happy Fathers Day’ and to encourage you to never give up.

When the sun is bright and the kids are a joy to be with, when your heart aches to be with them, embrace every moment, enjoy every decibel of laughter, memorise every smile that your children deliver, and receive every embrace that they offer.

And, when times are difficult, and the cash is scarce, dig deep into your emotional vaults, and remember that your children still need you, your children still love you and they are counting on you.

In the hardest of times remember, your stronger than you know, and loved more than your children can express, you are their world and their support… your the one shaping, moulding, teaching and leading them.

And fathers of youths and young men and women, your still needed your still wanted and your encouragement still treasured.

Enjoy, embrace, and treasure your role as a Father. . .

You are loved.
