Two-way journaling with Jesus... With life changing results!

Last week I shared with the same Bible Study group in Hay about how life changing Ifor and I have found two-way journaling with Jesus to be since we started doing this two months ago.  They had a go at the first exercise where we all quieted ourselves, focused on Jesus and wrote a love letter to Jesus. Then we continued, whilst tuned to the flow of the Holy Spirit, to write what He was saying in response. Many were quite taken aback and greatly encouraged as Jesus responded with His personal words of acceptance and love for us as individuals.

Today was my weekly Bible Fun group for the mums and young children in our immediate locality.  One of the mums who started doing this two-way journaling a fortnight ago told me how much it has changed her life already. She loves hearing Jesus speak to her so readily and feels so uplifted by Him.

Wedding above Hay on Wye

It was good to share in our Godson's wedding celebrations recently. What a stunning location overlooking Hay for the wedding marquee after the service!

The wedding was held in Clyro Church where Kilvert, the famous Victorian diarist, was once the rector.

Quote from Job

"God speaks again and again, though people don't recognize it. He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they lie in bed.  He whispers in their ear."  Job 33:14,15.

Christian Dream Interpretation

Since my post on 10th May God has given me much revelation and counsel through dreams which I have found really encouraging.  Last month I was asked to lead a bible study on this with a group in Hay on Wye. Together we looked at lots of Bible references and I simply shared what I have learnt so far. I encouraged them to have a go and keep pen and paper by their bed. A fortnight later on my return a number of them shared their dreams and through the guidance of the Holy Spirit we were able to interpret their meaning together.  This was an encouragement to everyone as He spoke through them.

Wedding back in Broad Haven, Pembs.

This weekend one of my former youth group got married  at the chapel in Broad Haven where we used to minister. I was aware of Father God enveloping them as Ifor prayed His blessing over them and their marriage.  It was a privilege to share their special day with them and their families. Lovely also to catch up with friends in the chapel on the following day. Special people.

Queen's 90th Birthday celebrations

.

To celebrate our queen's 90th birthday we bought lots of copies of The Servant Queen and the King She Serves and distributed them to people in Glasbury and surrounding villages on behalf of Glasbury Baptist Church. They were generally well received and hopefully will be read. One person said " I wonder what her secret is". I told her " I think she gives that away inside." She was intrigued!

It was fun to go back to Llanfrynach where I lived before we married to join with others in the service written by the Queen herself I believe. We were all invited to wear hats and dress up for the occasion which added to the fun. Floral arrangements adorning each window, the font, etc. were created by local individuals. Tasty cakes were provided in the marquee where we could enjoy a cuppa and chat.
The figures were knitted by a friend of mine in the village.
The hat was covered in myriads of hydrangea petals.

Book launch at Hay Festival

I enjoyed going to the launch of my friend Eleanor Watkins' new book at Hay Festival. My husband picked up the book as soon as he got home and is already halfway through it! He says it's so well written, down to earth, true to life and a very good read. I have yet to find that out for myself!
