Weekly Meditation Verse: Psalm 138 “My strength of soul You increased.”

It’s hard to believe that we have reached September already, but after a summer break during which we visited Cornwall and Scotland, I feel ready to get back to work again.  In a bid to attend to my own wellbeing, I decided to try a bit of gardening this summer, it’s not been easy due to the constant rain, but I recently planted some seeds and to my astonishment four of them have produced green shoots which were moved into a larger pot yesterday.  I’m so unbelievably proud and protective of these new little signs of life and check in on them daily.It makes me realise, that God must have taken so much joy from His creation in Genesis 1:

“³¹ God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.”

This week we think of how God gives us strength so whether or not your summer was restful and no matter how you are feeling today, God delights in you and will give you strength!
