    How Job’s desire for intimacy with God remained even in times of suffering.

    INTIMACY WITH GOD I read recently in a book the following: ‘Look at any Sunday morning congregation and what do you see?

    The Parable of the Weeds Matthew 13.24-30; 36-43 This is an MP3/4 player. I bought it off Ebay. From a distance it looks like an IPod nano, but it is not a nano.

    Foundations – Luke 6.46-49 Of all the parables of Jesus this is the one that has probably been reduced the most to a children’s story – via the children’s chorus – the “wise/foolish man built his house upon…” you know the chorus and you have probably sung it many times.
