It is sadly funny seeing large packs of lager or beer being sold at discount rates with the tag ‘drink responsibly’. Although there are merits to social drinking, the dangers of excessive drinking physically, mentally, spiritually, relationally and otherwise are so overwhelming it is patently obvious what approach is wise when it comes to alcohol. […]
Read More Responsible DrinkingI think I’ve made it quite clear that moving sucks. Today has seen the majority of heavy goods moved from the old to the new. By today I include this late hour at which there’s still some bedding and drawer material to come. Something happened in the moving process this evening that reminded me of […]
Read More Moving and RemainingToo much of most things are bad. So what’s good to aim for is the right balance between things. It’s good to aim for a good balance between poverty and riches – the extreme either way could lead to a loss of proper perspective on life. Such a loss would mean missing on what is […]
Read More Getting the Balance RightI came across Shawn Boonstra and the It Is Written ministry whilst in Jamaica. It is one of the few beautiful things that came from the time over there. I had finally succumbed to watching television after a number of days being above it all and focussing on going through my reading material. With the […]
Read More Trusting God’s Plan for Your LifeIt may hurt and feelings may be bruised, but it’s better to take a telling off and actively seek to improve by it than by getting all resentful and stubborn and resist that which is said for your own good. Failure to do so and insisting your way is best will take you to places […]
Read More Resist Reproof At Your Own RiskIt is difficult to admit you have a problem and harder still once admitted to effectively deal with it. What makes it so difficult at times is being surrounded by people who put on masks that suggest everything is well with them and any issue they have is external and so they carry on with […]
Read More Admit It And Move OnBe grateful for good friends. Those around you to share your journey who are interested in you not for what they can get out of you but out of a genuine delight in getting to know and support you. Nothing beats a good friendship, so enjoy the ones you have and spare a thought and […]
Read More Nothing Like A Good FriendMemories of television programmes are a blessing and a curse. It’s a curse in the sense that surely I should be able to remember something that was worth something to someone. It’s a blessing in the sense that I’m able to remember something was worth something to me. I’ve got to find out whatever happened […]
Read More The Not So Little Hobo Keeps Moving OnIt’s just been one of those nights where I’ve come across so many classic tunes it’s been an effort to keep track of them. Almost as though they’ve started popping up all over YouTube. I am not complaining at all as they have been a great support for me during this prayer season and I’m […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Never Shall Forget – John P. KeeSome of the classic hymns we hold dear to our hearts were lambasted out of the church because of their familiarity to pub classics. Ever since that bygone time Christian musicians have asked the question why should the devil have all the best music. Some folks go as far as to say there’s no such […]
