Endings - Tonic


“Finally, brethren, rejoice, be made complete, be comforted, be like-minded, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.” II Corinthians 13:11-14

A tonic is a medicine that increases strength, energy and general wellbeing. It refreshes and invigorates. Also the it’s the first note of a music scale that a “key” sound is based upon. It is also a way of producing tension, especially muscular tension – so think of biceps and triceps – you need both for proper coordinated movement. And here is a tonic in God’s Word.

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: New: Please pray for Gary who will lost his job on Sunday. Ongoing prayer requests: Reg’s ministry, doctors caring for: David, Adrian, Randy and Michael. The Kossallys and me during some big changes. For a new project to come through for me in Australia. Praise: Lyle’s brother (out of hospital, learning to stand again).
