Friday Reflection- 24th October 2025
Sandra’s Soliloquy
Greetings Friends
How are you? What is happening in your life currently?
Once again, I had no idea what I was going to write, always praying throughout the day for guidance. I am reminded that over the years, God has used various means of showing me things, speaking to me, catching my attention. At my interview to be accepted as a local Preacher, I was very grateful to Janet Rich who reminded me of a conversation I had with her previously, or even mentioned in a sermon. I had shared how God often spoke to me through words in a novel I was reading. Not a Christian book, or Christian content, but every day, ordinary words, spoken by ordinary people I was reading about.
Do you find that? Words leap off the page at you, that you identify with? Or speak into a situation you have been in, or are in currently?
I am also remembering that at other times, music, secular music, of all genres, have moved me with a deep meaning in my life.
I say that, as in the past hour, the song going through my head has been by the Beatles
Let it be.
Looking up the words and listening to it, I knew I had to share it. I never know how people will react to my Reflection, nor when I share things in my life, words of wisdom I have learned. But God knows.
So, for anyone reading this…please listen to the song and let it speak to you.
I am feeling very emotional now, listening to the Beatles, remembering just how young I was when they burst on the music scene in the 60s. Their music is still relevant and unique today. Enjoy.
Father God, we thank you for all the music available these days. We thank you that words can lift us up, console us, encourage us and speak into our lives and situations. We thank you for the talents of musicians, their dedication and sharing of their music.
Thank You that You have many ways of getting our attention and that you speak to us through others, and many forms of media.
We feel helpless much of the time in the face of world crises and politics. Thank You that You are always with us and love us unconditionally.
Please be with those who are struggling; those in trouble; those without homes; people with terminal illnesses and their family and friends. Lord, surround us with Your all-encompassing love and compassion.
Help us to enjoy being in the moment and making the most of fun and pleasure and times with those we love. Amen
God Bless Everyone-Sandra x
