I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 4th of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to John 21:12:

“Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.”

Then further down in verse 15, Jesus says to Peter:

“Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?”

Every time the Lord Jesus wanted to speak very directly, personally and intimately with his disciples, what did He say? “Come and have a meal.” In fact, the last time that He had a meal with His disciples, in the Upper Room, He taught them some very important truths. He taught them that if we are going to be servants of the Lord, then we have to humble ourselves. It is an intimate time, isn’t it, having a meal. There is no rushing, it is a heart-to-heart normally, because that is exactly what happened on the shore of the Sea of Galilee when Jesus asked Simon Peter, the most important question of all. “Do you love Me?” “Oh”, he says, “yes, I love You, Lord.” And then Jesus said, “Feed My lambs.” And of course, the disciples did just that.

I love going into Central Africa and into the rural areas, where the people are very poor, but so loving and so generous. When you are invited into one of those huts, you sit in a circle and they bring in their meagre food. It is normally a big bowl of maize meal, and then they bring in a smaller bowl of the delicacy of meat made with beautiful gravy. We sit in a circle, and we take some of the maize meal and we make it into a round ball and then we very carefully dip it into the relish and we eat, but the main purpose is we talk to each other and we love each other.

Two of my children’s weddings were breakfast weddings. The one was in our farm shed and we sat around and spoke together for hours. Today, spend time with someone, invite them for breakfast and tell them about the Lord Jesus Christ.

Have a wonderful day and enjoy your breakfast.
Goodbye.

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 3rd of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the last book of the Bible, Revelation 3:20:

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.“

So often we want to receive from God. How often do we want to give God what we have? I can hear somebody say, “I have got nothing to give Him.” Oh yes, you have plenty to give Him. Do you remember the little boy that Jesus asked the disciples to find out if any of the men, 5000 of them, had anything, any food, to give Him? I am sure many of those men had food, but they were not giving it to Jesus. There was a little boy, his mommy had probably packed him a little lunch bag and said, “There are two little sardines and five little barley loaves of bread. You go and have that lunch when you go and listen to Jesus.” He gave his all to Jesus. Jesus took it, prayed over it, multiplied it and fed 5000 men. But you see, the little boy gave to Jesus.

Now, this Bible verse is two-fold. The Lord said, “I will come in and dine with you and you with Me.” Now, what is it that we can give to the Lord? Well, I want to tell you a little story. My wife, Jill, and I were up in Central Africa many years ago, staying with a very poor family. These Zambians had very little to eat, but this pastor had a small congregation. His congregation came every day, and they brought one egg each, and those eggs were to feed Jill and me. We had two fried eggs every morning, and every morning they brought food for us. Now, we had plenty of food, and they knew that, but they brought what they had to us.

That touched me so deeply. I didn’t even want to eat the eggs, but I knew if I didn’t, I would have offended them. So I ate those eggs heartily and thanked them, and blessed them for their love towards Jill and I. I want to tell you, Jesus today is saying, “What have you got for me? I am coming in to dine with you, to eat your food, and I want you to eat My food.” We need to share what we have with one another because He says “As much as you have done it unto the least of these, My brethren, you have done it to Me.” If you feed someone today who cannot repay you, you are feeding the Lord.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Monday morning, the 2nd of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the Gospel of Luke 5:5:

“But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”

Then we know what happened after that. He caught so many fish that the net was breaking, and he had to call the other disciples to help him pull in a massive catch.

Then we go to Galatians 6:9:

“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”

Once more, once more - you say, “I can’t.” You can and you must. Cast it out once more, cast that net out. “But we have tried everything, and it is not working." “Once more”, the Lord said to the disciples. They said, “We have been fishing all night. He said, “Once more.”

Remember the story, I think I have told it to you maybe a few years ago, about the Scottish King, Robert the Bruce. He was getting a terrible hiding from the English, and he was hiding in a cave. He was just about all done. He had tried everything, and he sat in that cave, and he saw a spider. This spider was trying to swing across the mouth of the cave from one side to the other, and he watched it. It tried once, it failed, it tried twice, it failed, it tried three times and it failed. It kept doing it and eventually got to the other side. That Scottish King went outside, he rallied his troops, and he won the battle.

I want to say to you today, I don’t know what it is, maybe it is healing that you are looking for for your body. Maybe it’s a relationship. You say, “I just can’t do any more.” Once more, go and see them once more, cast your net out once more. That crop that I planted, nothing is coming up. Plant again. Those animals that I am trusting for, for healing, just keep on trusting God and He will see you through.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.
Goodbye.
