Read More Go For The Lift: One Moment AwayMeans of communication. They’re quite something these days. Send a tweet. Post a photo on Insta. Do whatever it is you’re meant to do on Snapchat (I leave that to my daughters). There’s still sending an email or connecting via video message. I hear there are still people who send letter through the post. As […]
Read More If You Love The CallerNearly there, but not quite. For a long time the group were used to getting nearly there but not quite. Just missing out on achieving their desired outcomes. Just missing out on what they had set for themselves. Nearly there, but not quite. When they explored what could be the reason for this, they were […]
Read More Rest and Be TogetherFor some it happens at a crisis moment in life. That was certainly the case with me. In that crisis it was brought to my attention like never before that this life can be run along one of two ways – my way or God’s way. Making my way His way would still in essence […]

Read More Fly AwayDad. Yes, son. Has the world always been like this? What do you mean? The good and the bad, Dad. It’s like for all the good things there are, there seems to be so much in the world that’s been. It’s like as soon as you enjoy yourself over one thing, you’re informed and reminded […]

Read More Admiring the OpportunistMy friend was telling me that it was because the roots were settled deep that’s why they could endure. It was great to hear that.
