Ezra 3:7 Then they gave money to the masons and carpenters, and gave food and drink and olive oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre, so that they would bring cedar logs by sea from Lebanon to Joppa, as authorised by Cyrus king of Persia.

What do you have which could be used to help the church grow? Why do we always think of money?

We have got so many different talents which can be used in church (and outside) which could help the church grow – we need to focus on growing the church and not how much it will cost to grow!

Set aside a little time today to think what you could do to encourage others to come to church or to enjoy church more!

Psalm 147:7 Sing to the Lord with grateful praise; make music to our God on the harp.

Have you ever wished you could play a specific musical instrument? I wish I could play the guitar and the piano...

But it takes persistent practise and patience to sit down and learn how to do things like this...

God has given you special gifts to do things – that may be singing, writing, engineering, photography, even a spot like swimming...

Use what God has given you to praise Him!

Proverbs 31:10 A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.

Finding the right partner in life can sometimes feel like the most daunting task in the world!

If we are able to find someone who fills the gaps in our lives, who finishes the unfinished and is there before you need them; don't let go!

God wants each of us to have the right person; wait on Him and listen to His guidance as He tries to show you that right person!

Psalm 147:4 He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name.

How many stars can you name? How many of them are actually galaxies or planets instead?

If you have ever been able to go out in the darkest night to see the stars, you will know just how many of them there are... and God knows each one by name!

There is nothing our God cannot do and nothing our God does not know.

Put you faith and trust in Him.
