I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 25th of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the Gospel of John 21:9:

“Then as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it and bread.”

Faith has got feet, faith is a doing word, not a noun. A noun is a table or a chair. It can’t move, it can’t do anything, but faith is active. Don’t tell people that you love them, show them that you love them. Now, the Master taught us very well. Remember, after He had been resurrected He was at a place called Peter’s Landing on the Sea of Galilee. It's actually a big lake. It is 21 km long and 13 km wide, and very, very deep and full of fish. The disciples had been fishing all night. Now they were coming to land, and there was the Master, but He wasn’t just standing there. He had already taken time to take flour to make bread, to catch fish, to prepare them on the fire, and He was waiting for them.

That is what I love about our beloved Jesus. He is not just a talker, He is actually a doer. Now, what about you and I, today. Why don’t we do something and especially for someone who can’t repay us, then we know that our motive is pure. I want to say to the men, why don’t you cook supper tonight? You say, “I don’t cook!” Well you better learn. If Jesus can cook, you can cook too! Why don’t you wash the dishes? Get up a bit earlier and do something for your family. Mow the grass!

Now ladies, I am not letting you off the hook either. Why don’t you sit down and watch that rugby match with your husband? “I don’t like rugby.” No, he knows you don’t like rugby and that is why I am saying, why don’t you do it? Then he knows you are doing it because you love him and do it joyfully, and don’t forget to shout for the correct team! But jokes aside, let’s start to put our faith into practice, let’s start doing what Jesus would have done. Let’s start helping people physically, not just with a word of encouragement but following up by action.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,
Goodbye.
