Wisdom is for life not just for reading in a book called Proverbs. It’s all well and good to get stirred and inspired by words on a page, but there’s something inspiring when it comes alive in the human experience. Take for example … Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his […]
Read More MTP19 Wisdom Has You CoveredI like this video and it does highlight a lot of things that are true about church. The reason I love church so much is because I’ve got an inkling of what God wants from it and is crafting through the different trials and afflictions that beset it from within and without.

Read More Errr … About That HiatusI’m not sure what wisdom there is to help with the nature of your countenance on being awoken from some effort to get some kip.

Read More When Good Neighbours Become Good FriendsI’m sure I’ve written about grace before. I think it was back in the early days of blogging when it more splurging than any sense of continuity in writing.

Read More When Daddy DisciplinesThe fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds, there is none who does good.
