Sunday Thought

'The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart. Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit. The best thing to hold onto in life is each other. 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.'

William Shakespeare

Sunday reflection:

Psalm 50.1,2 & 5,6

The Lord, the most mighty God, has spoken

and called the world from the rising of the sun to its setting.

Out of Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth; our God comes and will not keep silence.

'Gather to me my faithful,

who have sealed my covenant with sacrifice.'

Let the heavens declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge.
