Mountains, Plains and Valleys

I am grateful for the variety of experiences that come in life. There are on the height of a mountain experiences. The sheer exhilaration of accomplishing a goal and looking at how vast the land of life looks from that perspective is brilliant. It’s a great position to get the degree of intimacy in the […]

Pointing To The Alternative

I had the privilege to converse with an old friend recently. I came across him about 18 years ago. He is one of those guys who you can immediately love because he’s such a gently, honourable man. He is not afraid to cry for Go and he’s very sincere in his commitment to God and […]

What I Love About Abigail

Time flies by. One moment she was a vulnerable little bundle of joy. Another moment she is not so much walking as bounding from one end of the room to the other. Yet another moment she is a bouncing girl with energy to burn. What I love about Abigail is that she is not about […]

It was incredible learning of the times where his life was saved, when decisions he would never have made otherwise were made by strange quirks of life. It […]

Tired and Weary

A thesaurus might say that another description of ‘tired’ is weary. I can understand why they would do something like that. This blog entry is not to pick a fight with the thesaurus. Be that as it may, I would suggest, from experience, a key difference between the two terms. Tired is something you feel […]

Helping God Out

I agree, it’s not always easy or straightforward understanding the will of God. There are parts of the Bible and parts of life that require us to be careful how we proceed. Wisdom is particularly important in these circumstances, so that we make the right decision to go in the right direction. What makes me […]

Why We Need His Love

This human experience is filled with ups and downs. People have such pleasant sides to them. Lovely smiles, warm welcomes, gestures of concern and interest, suitable arrangements and services if there’s a problem. It can look so well. Look what happens when there’s a massive disaster, consider the overflow of generosity in seeking to help. […]
