Written and directed by Fritz Lang, the 1929 film Frau Im Mond, meaning Woman In The Moon, is generally credited with introducing which technique, which is now commonly used immediately before important events? Be A Listening Friend “But God is my helper. He is a friend of mine!” Psalm 54:4 (Living Bible) A friend who cares and is there when needed is as sweet as perfume. How can we be like this for others? One way is simply by listening to others. Don’t interrupt; don’t advise; just listen. In Luke 24:13-35, Jesus listened to two people as He walked with them, and not until verse 35 did He answer them. A few years ago I had a cancer scare. Everybody was supportive and reassuring, but what I needed most was someone to listen to how I was feeling. One night I was in tears asking God to send someone to listen, when I felt a peace and a feeling that I was going to be fine. God listened. He sent someone to listen—He came Himself! This taught me a valuable lesson—the lesson of listening. You don’t need all the answers; just be there. By caring for each other we spread love for each other, as God first showed us his love for us by sending Jesus (John 3:16). Answers on page 88 Simply by saying ‘Good Morning’, or even smiling to people we meet, we can make a big difference. Perhaps you are the only one they will meet that day. But even more, care for each other by listening. Prayer: Dear Father who is our greatest friend, please help us to be a friend, to listen, to care for and love each other. Amen NEW – PRAYER BUS IN COULSDON Our church is offering to pray for those who feel the need – but no need to come to church. On Sundays 12.30 – 1.30pm look for the minibus with the yellow Prayer Bus sign in the windscreen. It’s parked where Sherwood Road joins Chipstead Valley Road, that is opposite Barrie Close where our church meets in the Community Centre. We’ll certainly listen – and pray if you like. GCI Coulsdon Community Church meets at 11.00am on Sundays In Coulsdon Community Centre Upper Hall. For further information please contact Pastor Brian Smith coulsdon@gracecom.church or 01798 813133.
