Dear Friend, Have you ever owned a kaleidoscope? As a child I was once fortunate enough to have one and it gave me many happy hours of entertainment. How ever hard you shook the contents of the outer case they always settled down and formed a pretty pattern. The patterns were never exactly the same; it all depended on where the fragments lay. Life is rather like a kaleidoscope, it is made up of many parts, differing from person to person, but in every case they form a pattern. Sometimes the pieces are rather drab, at other times colourful, but the components, or experiences, all make a divinely planned pattern.

I will praise Thee: For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvellous are Thy works, and that my soul knoweth right well. Psalm 139:14

So far this summer the weather has been quite varied but what would we do without our climate? Even with a complete stranger we can immediately start a conversation by talking about the weather. It is a subject guaranteed to break down all barriers yet, in a different sense, climate can also be a barrier, for so much depends on the individual. Take the person who is chilly to everyone they meet – they pass that chilliness on. Then there’s the person who’s cloudy, full of gloom, leaving you feeling miserable and what about the person who knows how to put the whole world to right, thundering on about everyone, and everything? Well at least that climate is invigorating, if somewhat exhausting! Then there’s the person with a sunny climate, beaming at you in greeting, creating an immediate warm feeling. It makes you feel that even if the sun isn't actually shining, it will be very soon. 2

Animal Healing Service 18th August I thought it best to let you know in good time that Margaret and I will be holding another Animal Healing Service. Here at the Sanctuary in Blackpool. Tuesday 18th August from 9.30am through to 3.30pm. If you cannot bring your pet to the Sanctuary then write into us with their name and picture, they will be then placed upon the Altar where both prayers and blessings will be given on their behalf.

'Hand of God' This beautiful image of a "cosmic hand" reaching for the stars has  been captured by a Nasa observatory. What appears, with a little  imagination,  to  be  the  outstretched  fingers  were  created  by  a  spinning  neutron  star  known  as  a  pulsar  buried  deep  inside  the  fist, which releases energy as it rotates. Although the pulsar itself  is only 12 miles in diameter, the cloud or nebula that it produces  stretches  across  150  light  years  of  space.  The  X‐ray  image  was  recorded  by  Nasa's  Chandra  observatory  which  is  circling  360  miles above Earth taking images of high‐energy locations across  the universe, such as the remnants of exploded stars.  Dubbed  the  Hand  of  God,  following  on  from  an  'Eye  of  God'  image released by European astronomers in February, the nebula  pictured  in  the  new  X‐ray  was  produced  by  the  pulsar  B1509,  which is about 17,000 light years away.  5

THE BLESSED DIVINE HEALING CARD In the Divine Healing Service on Tuesday afternoons and every morning at the Altar in the Sanctuary, the little card shown with this Sanctuary Messenger is held for Jesus to bless those, who hold it in prayer.

In no time at all I have experienced in our togetherness with all our prayer friends in my midst and wherever they are, that the Lord takes our hearts and hands in His Own and blesses our loved ones with this sacred card. Thank you for holding it for the Lord to Bless. It is the Lord who unites us in prayer and who takes us into the universal perfection of His love and body for us to share. So we give ourselves to Him in all His wisdom to be channels of His care. How wonderful to be so divinely needed, and so absolutely necessary for the spiritual wellbeing, health and happiness of one another. If you would like a prayer card, please write to us here at the Sanctuary and we will be only too pleased to send you one. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart. Proverbs 3:5 6

YOUR DAY WITH THE FATHER

MONDAY Take everything that happens as coming from the hands of God,  who  loves  you;  in  this  way  every  trial  will  become  a  source  of  peace and joy since God is not a burden, but rather comfort, joy  and cheerfulness.

TUESDAY Love can take many hearts and make them one, uniting them in  the love of God: it makes them open, friendly, peaceful, one in  mind  and  heart;  it  makes  them  capable  of  learning  the  will  of  God.   

WEDNESDAY The  troubles  we  have  in  life,  if  we  see  them  as  part  of  God's  loving plan and accept them as being what he wants for us will  actually help us to grow in knowledge and love of him.   Even  when  things  are  at  their  worst,  keep  your  peace  of  heart  and accept whatever God sends you as being for your good.

THURSDAY Be as simple as a child: always see the best in everyone and with  good  intention,  excuse  the  one  who  hurts  you,  seeing  whatever  harm he does as the result of some temptation.   What destroys community is judging other people's actions while  losing sight of one's own. 

FRIDAY May  my  horizon  this  day,  Lord,  not  be  so  foreshortened  that  I  notice little. Instead, open my eyes that I may see afar and above  as  well  as  in  front  and  beneath  me.  Lead  me  to  keep  my  life  in  perspective  and  balance  and  discover  that  the  thread  of  your  presence is interwoven through the events and people of this day 

  SATURDAY Lord, I thank you for those who try to make others well and care  for  those  in  suffering  and  pain.  Give  them  wisdom  in  curing  and  gentle patience in caring. For all they have done, 

SUNDAY Not only did people come to Jesus to be healed, but Jesus went to  them. "I will come and cure him," Jesus tells the Roman centurion  who asks help for his servant. (Mt 8, 7) He even cured people who  didn't know who he was. (Jn 5.1‐18)   8
