"We love him, because he first loved us" (1 John 4.19) is excellent to remember......

Hi @Wynona Prayer and the Scriptures if pursued daily and diligently will soon reveal ways you can indeed keep busy.......... :)

Hi @Siddhi Koli Glad you are able to keep active with your hands. Good that you are able to read God's Word regularly also.

Good to see you @Brittanybelieves , here on the forums...

@Pearl I remember that when I was over there, once years ago the Monster Raving Looney party got more votes in a by-election than the SDP...... (This proved to be the catalyst for the SDP to become defunct..... :) )

I seem to remember that some years ago there was a fixed term Parliament bill that was passed; not sure exactly how that works over there... In Canada it still has the old British-origin Parliamentary system whereby a Parliament can be dissolved virtually overnight. (Of course, politicians...

@Marvelloustime I'm not into politics but ppl do need to become deeply rooted in God's Word... "O may these heavenly pages be My ever dear delight; And still new beauties may I see, And still increasing light." (Anne Steele, 1717-1778)
