All I want is the best for our lives, my dear

And you know my wishes are sincere

What's to say for the days I cannot bear

Sunday reflection:

Psalm 29. 1,2 & 10

Ascribe to the Lord, you powers of heaven, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Ascribe to the Lord the honour due to his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

The Lord shall give strength to his people;

the Lord shall give his people the blessing of peace.
