February was supernatural month and now March is the MONTH OF LOVE!
Lots to think about so this Friday we ask the basic question "What is love?".
Answers in the comments section below, please.
We will also have a visit from Steve this week - to hear about what's going on with the teenagers, and we will share some bread and wine too.

Love Creates
I see that in my baby daugher and I see it in all God has made.
Love is the reason God created and keeps creating.
Love is what we are living for.
Love is God.
God is Love.
...nuff said
Thanks Phil !
As a great poet once said:
The power of love is a curious thing
Make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
More than a feeling that’s the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl’s dream
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night
You don’t need money, don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train
It’s strong and it’s sudden and it’s cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That’s the power of love
That’s the power of love
First time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But you’ll be glad baby when you’ve found
That’s the power makes the world go’round
And it don’t take money, don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train
It’s strong and it’s sudden it can be cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
They say that all in love is fair
Yeah, but you don’t care
But you know what to do
When it gets hold of you
AND WITH A LITLE HELP FROM ABOVE
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Can you feel it ?
Hmmm
It don’t take money and it don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
You won’t feel nothin’ till you feel
You feel the power, just the power of love
That’s the power, that’s the power of love
You feel the power of love
You feel the power of love
Feel the power of love

After tonights service I felt compeled to find the lyrics mentioned from Howard Jones' song 'What is love'. Do we have a choice in love, is it only a feeling? Does love have to be shown back to us by those we love?
I love you whether or not you love me
I love you even if you think that I don't
Sometimes I find you doubt my love for you, but I don't mind
Why should I mind, Why should I mind
Chorus
What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway
What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway
Can anybody love anyone so much that they will never fear
Never worry never be sad
The answer is they cannot love this much nobody can
This is why I don't mind you doubting
And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be
The door always must be left unlocked
To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you
And not to spend the time just doubting
And here are some more lyrics:
From Martyn Joseph "Love Is"
And love is soaring symphonies
and dance band serenades
and love is why the heart beats
and love is when it fades
and love cannot be diminished
by death or body blows
and love can't be extinguished
by blindfolding the rose

From U2 "God Part 2"
Don't believe in forced entry
Don't believe in rape
But every time she passes by
Wild thoughts escape
I don't believe in death row
Skid row or the gangs
Don't believe in the Uzi
It just went off in my hand
I...I believe in love
