		<title>All loneliness resolved?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Did you agree with Selwyn, regarding the following statement, which he made in today&#8217;s study?
&#8220;One of the things that concerns me deeply about much of modern-day church life is the tendency of some to practice denial. .. Let me remind you once again what denial is all about &#8211; it is looking at things as [...]]]></description>

		<title>The blight of loneliness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was surprised that when I searched for a list of emotions on the &#8216;net, I found that there are different lists and the majority of these lists did not include loneliness as a prime emotion. The common prime emotions I found in lists, were: love, joy, surprise, anger, sadness, and fear.  Loneliness was seen by some, [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;The comforting Christ&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I really liked Selwyn&#8217;s conclusion &#8211; that Jesus can, and does, comfort us during our times of pain and grief. We, who follow Jesus, have access to our God who fully understands our human feelings. He is our God, who&#8217;s nature, is to  run down the road, with arms outstretched &#8211; to greet and comfort [...]]]></description>

		<title>Come boldly &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In today&#8217;s study Selwyn uses the verse Hebrews 4:16, to illustrate the truth that we can boldly come into God&#8217;s presence.
Hebrews 4:12-16 (NLT): &#8221; &#8230; the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts [...]]]></description>

		<title>God&#8217;s credibility rating</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I thought these words &#8211; taken from today&#8217;s study, were good: &#8220;The visit of God to our world was not a momentary rift in the clouds, giving us a fleeting glance of the Deity. No, He dwelt among us, from the manager  to the tomb; amid our poverty, amid our temptations, amid our problems and [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;It lays no hold on my heart&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay &#8211; I guess over all these years &#8211; such a day, does come along &#8211; I can find nothing positive to say about what Selwyn has written.
However, I would like to say that John 13:34, is a favourite verse of mine: &#8220;So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pity, sympathy and empathy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I thought that the following statements made by Selwyn in today&#8217;s study, were useful: &#8220;There are three main words used to describe the action of feeling for someone who has been hurt or wounded &#8211; pity, sympathy and empathy. Pity is feeling for someone; sympathy is feeling like someone; empathy is feeling withsomeone. &#8230; 
There [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ever the same</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I liked Selwyn&#8217;s introduction: &#8220;The willingness of our Creator to subject Himself to the conditions under which we live must surely spell out one thing &#8211; God is intensely interested in and concerned about all aspects of our lives, including our hurts and sorrows.&#8221; Jesus does all this &#8211; because He loves us! The most [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;God the more!&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a problem with what Selwyn has written today &#8211; along the lines that one possible understanding of his statement, &#8216;the Almighty was never so much God as when He became man&#8217;, could be taken to mean that God, at one stage, was less than perfect. In the context of today&#8217;s study, Selwyn does [...]]]></description>

		<title>The highest honour</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I agree with Selwyn, these following verses, tell us a lot about the nature of our God (John 13:1, 3-5, 12-17, NLT).  &#8221; &#8230; Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them [...]]]></description>
