Moreover Blessing It was something Authrine reminded me about. She was talking about how God responded to Solomon’s request. So I went to read 1 Kings 3 and loved how Solomon put himself at the mercy of God to just get the wisdom required to operate in his position as king. That degree of humility […]
Read More Moreover Blessing & Even Though LoveWhen I am asked to do something within my strengths and in line with my passions there is something about me that gets tunnel visioned. It’s as if I block everything out except endeavouring to excel in that area. It can be remarkably useful and also remarkably off-putting to others. As well as that, however, […]
Read More Faithful to the MissionIf you don’t get good service, you are often going to do something about it, even if it’s just grumbling to someone else. What happens, however when we benefit from outstanding service? Authrine and I had the pleasure of her company, recently. It was great spending time with her and hearing how she was doing. […]
Read More Acknowledging Good ServiceThe power in the testimony is not the person whose life has been transformed. The power in the testimony is what caused that transformation.

Flicking through the blogs written over the month, I like quite a lot of what I wrote. Yet July is still a wilderness month in the summer. Never been a big fan of the […]
Read More A New Month A New Season: Dryden UpdateI salute and applaud the committed few. When certain initiatives begin with the hype and excitement it can draw a crowd. People get caught up with promises of great benefits if they subscribe, participate and contribute. That all sounds good at the start.

Read More Talk About The Committed FewMy mentor mentioned the fact that this coming October would see the 500th anniversary of a significant moment in the Christian religion. For the first 18 years of my life, despite being brought up in a church environment, I had absolutely no idea what the Reformation was about. It was never talked about in any […]
Read More Talk About A ReformationWhat keeps me going among other than is what I am going towards. It’s like no matter how many times I read or hear of being a new creation in Christ and the old passed away and the new has come and the new heavens and earth and the New Jerusalem – the newness of […]
