La Tasca

As it was our wedding anniversary this week, and a baby sitter was available,  we went out to La Tasca in Milton Keynes. We had a variety of dishes including chicken, lamb, and rice and salads.Very nice and reasonable especially with a promotional voucher.

The restaurant is fairly basic but the service was good.

Giaus - 3 John

I preached this evening from 3 John. The greater part of the sermon was about Giaus. he was clearly a man who knew difficulties with health and wealth, and in the church with Diotrophes.  His main characteristic is his relationship to the truth. The truth is in him and he walks in the truth. We remembered that Jesus said he is the truth.
This produced 4 fruits - spiritual prosperity, a good testimony, faithfulness, and charity.
May we learn from his example.

Flight time

With my oldest two we spent an enjoyable couple of hours having a flight in a microlight over the Herts-Beds border. We could see various farmers hard at work harvesting, or preparing the ground or sowing for next years harvest.
We were reminded that this work goes on in the church throughout the year.  we also remember that despite all the hard work they and we are dependant upon our benevolent Heavenly Father.
