I have not done this in a while. I first heard this song back in the early ’90’s. I remember hearing it and liking it a lot despite not truly understanding it. Today my understanding is a lot better and I remain grateful for the grace that gives the victory. Enjoy. For His Name’s Sake […]
Read More CD Songs: Grace by The O’Neal Twins (1983)Do you know how to play to win the waiting game? When I was a child, along with my two siblings, there were times where we had the ‘joy’ of accompanying my parents to one of the homes of their friends. Their friends didn’t have children our age. This was the time before electronic devices […]
Read More Playing the Waiting GameRecently I had the privilege of sitting in on a small prayer meeting. The thing about settings where there’s a small number of people is that if those in attendance are interested it gives room for lively and engaging dialogue. The nature of the prayer meeting gave space for people to share their prayer points, […]
Read More The Choke HoldReading the twelfth chapter of 2 Samuel is heavy. Did David really think he could get away with it? It’s intriguing that it takes a confrontation with God through Nathan for his misdeeds to be exposed and duly punished. The degree of David’s actions are taken very seriously indeed. God’s judgment on the matter is […]
Read More Sam’s 2nd Epic 12 – Conviction and GraceRelationships with God and each other should be characterised by grace. One of the outstanding attributes of God is His grace.

Read More Expressing Grace: A Small InquiryThere’s a word that I hear often and it’s really annoying. That word is ‘lucky’. I know where people are coming from when they say it. What bugs me about it is that it fails to recognise the source of credit for the things that happen to us for which we are not directly responsible.. […]
Read More More about GraceWhenever things are to be built, the foundations are essential. If the foundation is wrong the stability of the structure will be increasingly suspect. It’s bad enough when an individual life is built on unstable foundations. It’s significantly worse when a relationship is based on unstable foundations. What helps to establish strong relationships is truth […]
Read More Journeyman Journal – BuildingIt’s fascinating looking at how much my life has changed over the last 20 years. One of the major ways has been the influence of communications technology. If you had told me in 1996 that I would be able to write whatever I felt and be able to put it on a format where people […]
Read More Was That Really Worth It?It’s a challenge to say that there are certain things that are right or wrong absolutely. It takes one person to differ and with enough intellect, passion and intensity for any statement to be considered as strong but not applicable to all. It happens in all spheres of life including church. In it all is […]
Read More Grace and HolinessLife can get so overwhelming that from day to day it can appear just a burden. The mistakes of yesterday, those flaws that were displayed, the hurt caused. As well as problems that were not of your own making still to be resolved. Responsibilities in these circumstances just comes across so overbearing. I am so […]
