Psalm 119:42–48 (Listen)

42   then shall I have an answer for him who taunts me,
    for I trust in your word.
43   And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth,
    for my hope is in your rules.
44   I will keep your law continually,
    forever and ever,
45   and I shall walk in a wide place,
    for I have sought your precepts.
46   I will also speak of your testimonies before kings
    and shall not be put to shame,
47   for I find my delight in your commandments,
    which I love.
48   I will lift up my hands toward your commandments, which I love,
    and I will meditate on your statutes.

Eleanor’s story

“I couldn't believe that I’d gone to chapel all my life but I wasn't a Christian”

I was asked, ‘Do you believe in Jesus?’ and I said ‘Of course, I do!’ because I did – after all, I had been to church all my life. The problem was I believed in a Jesus that I didn't really know. But over time I accepted what the Bible was saying so I confessed to God that I was a sinner and came to know that there was no hope without him. And the older I get the more I realise how totally undeserving I am of all that God has done for me. That is what it’s all about — all I had was religion but it’s not about religion, it’s about really knowing God.

Oasis
Oasis is a weekly meeting for bible-study and fellowship. It takes place on most Tuesday afternoons between 2:00 and 3:30 (with breaks for school holidays). Each week a different guest speaker brings a word from the Bible, and there's plenty of time for fellowship over a cup of tea and a cake.
