It’s a delight to post this blog at this time. Many years ago my Mum was a big fan of my work. She would notice how many different ideas I would make a note of and encourage me to keep these. She saw me take part in school plays and encouraged me to keep it […]
Read More My Mum: Because She’s A Big Fan Of My WorkI am not a cook. It is thus a blessing to be surrounded by outstanding cooks. I cannot justifiably complain about this fact. That means come dinner time more often than not, I am in for a treat. As I was brought up my loving parents, I was instructed that it was good manners to […]
Read More Something About Praise and ThanksgivingA decade. It’s quite the milestone. It is a decade ago that I held a small creature newly released into the world. It was the first time I had ever witnessed the birth of a baby. I recall holding her in my hands and tenderly singing her song in her ear. It’s true what they […]
Read More The Joy Of A DadThe month of November. This has been a very interesting month. I set out to do a number of things over the month especially to do with Bible Study and I am grateful to God that I was able to accomplish them.

Recently I came across a friend of mine who is a photographer. I love his work, he’s a talented photographer and seeing him at work is such […]
Read More Grateful For … (18)Manhood. Over ten years ago, before we were married, my wife and I went to a large Christian conference. One session we sat in looked at the topic of biblical manhood and womanhood. At the time I was serious about desiring Authrine to be my wife, and Authrine was content to take her time considering […]
Read More Grateful For … (17)Good starts. I take good starts for granted. I was even saying to a colleague today that I prefer bad starts and good finishes to good starts and bad finishes. Yet today was a notable exception. My alarm goes off at 0500 and it’s not unusual that it will take me the best part of […]
Read More Grateful For … (16)37. To be honest I never paid attention to the number. As an age it’s no big deal. It’s not 10 or 16 or 18 or 21 or 25 or 30. It’s not a milestone by any stretch of the imagination. As is my style, though, I sought a degree of importance in the number. It […]
