Good one from @AlastairCarns No stress. No panic. Calm sense. Good stuff.
(Not necessarily a political comment - just know and appreciate leadership when I see it.)
24 years in the Marines taught me that being ready for emergencies is always a good idea.

Faith doesn't mean hiding fear.
In the worst hour of his life. Jesus cries one to His: 'Abba. Father. Take this cup away from me ... yet not what I want, but what you want.'
There's loads to learn here!

Good turnout on a wet day in @CleeTompkinson #Llandovery mart in the rain this morning.
Dry lambs doing well.
Money's definitely chasing MEAT today ... but what's it cost in feed this year to get it here?

It goes deeper and travels out to the edges.
Give it a pop.
Three friends.
One hour.
That's all Jesus asked of them in Gethsemane, and they couldn't do it. Jesus doesn't excuse it, but he understands it and still helped them keep going.
Mucking it up?

Strong trade today at Llandeilo mart ... obviously according to condition this season, and the condition varies but on the whole looking very fair.

In this Bible exposition we walk the road to Jerusalem with Jesus in Mark 10:32β-45, as He tells his friends and followers for a third time what's coming.
Take a look!

βGive thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever.β 1 Chronicles 16:34
Have a blessed Sunday evening folks!
Super Short Thought:
A ransom is a price paid to set somebody free.
Jesus says he came "not to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many." Mark 10:45
You can't earn it. You can only receive it, like a gift.

Super Short Thought: strong leaders carry the most for everybody else.

Cooking on a work night?
Trust me, me and my mate @LidlGB have got this COVERED!
:-)
James and John asked Jesus for the best seats in his kingdom.
He didn't mock them. He asked if they could drink his cup.
Wanting your life to matter is legit. Grabbing status for yourself is the problem.
Jesus offers a different road. Yes, of course it costs. All roads do
#Mark10
They expected a Messiah to crush the Romans.
Jesus walked ahead of his friends toward Jerusalem and told them exactly what was coming. He wasn't trapped. He was choosing it.
This is what greatness looks like: love that walks toward the cost.

βSeek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.β Isaiah 55:6
Have a blessed week everybody!
How do you know you'll be alright?
A good, wealthy man ran up to Jesus, knelt in the dust and asked the biggest question there is of the greatest man there ever was. Then he walked away sad. Why?
