"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it". Matthew 7:13-14

A 'hand' but not as we know it

We see some 'strange' verses in the Bible. This is one of them.

Pro 30:28 The spider skillfully grasps with its hands, And it is in kings' palaces.

I had a look to see if spiders around my home had 'hands' and I came across this picture. No microscopes three to four thousand years ago. This is the 'hand' of a common garden spider. This is how it clings to and moves along it's web in your home, in king's palaces and in my home, (if they ever get a chance to weave them with my wife Hazel's keen eyesisight and efficient dusting techniques).


How great is our God. In the big universe and the microscopic worlds around us. Every word the Lord has given us in his word has meaning and contains a truth.

Finally ......... a thought for to-day

Through prayer, finite man draws upon the power of the infinite God.
