Ansthruther trip continues



We made it to Anstruther on a glorious day to the birth place


 
 We made it to the fish and chip shop- several times winner of the best in Scotland etc.
I was reminded of many years ago being involved in mission in Anstuther with the Church of Scotland. The local Baptist church helped. Here is a picture of their building. Near the sea.

Ben Fogle Landrover


I enjoyed the Land Rover book by Ben Fogle.  It was a generally good insight into the world of this mysterious vehicle. As a Land Rover owner he was able to show the benefits and the challenges that it has brought over the years.

What to me, is amazing, is that Landrover today do not want to make a utility vehicle which I believe there is a demand for , but concentrate on selling high end vehicles from the high net worth customer.

Sunday ...Rest... I said rest.

Rest
A recent sermon at church highlighted the need for us to observe the rest day.
Now different faiths and religions use different days Fridays Saturdays or Sundays but they all recognise the need for rest. There are many things could be done on the rest day reflect observe discuss all activities that we miss during the working week where we plan, account and act.

I recall the story of the Chinese wall builders where the team that worked 7 days with no rest did not perform as good as the group that worked 6 days and rested on the seventh.

There is a need for work and there is a need for rest.
May this day for you be a rest day.

Contemplate

What observations have I made about the last week?
Reflect on Gods goodness to you?
Discuss with someone the requirement to rest.

In next week where must I plan,act and be accountable.



You might like to read the book The Passionate Church by Breen and Kallestad.
There is a good section at the beginning about rest.
