Just enough time to share a word of thanksgiving to God for the birth of the second daughter of the Dryden Family Abigail Elizabeth Danielle. Today she celebrated five years on the planet. Those years have not been easy for her and the last one in particular has seen her endure quite a lot. Through […]
Read More Celebrating the Life of Awesome AbigailAt the moment I enjoy my sleeping patterns. In the evening my wife and youngest daughter will retire to bed at a relatively early time and being exhausted by events, I won’t have that much stamina to stay up for that much longer and I’m usually gone before 11pm. Almost like clockwork way before 6am […]
Read More Thanking God For The ValleyI don’t talk often. I talk at work – it’s what I’m paid to do and I do that to the best of my ability. I have banter with my colleagues and I’m texting quite often when the football is on. Yet for all that I really don’t talk often. By that I mean, I […]
Read More What Mattered Then – What Matters NowSo another month is upon us and this is a Bank Holiday Monday so technically I’ve been able to enjoy a day off work. Key words in that statement ‘technically’ and ‘enjoy’. For all that I’m enjoying life at present, despite some bad health of late, I remain in the land of the living. I’ve […]
Read More May UpdateA mother’s love gets a lot of hype in our society. The balance is wrong I think. In as much as the nurturing love of a mother is important to a baby’s healthy upbringing, my reading on the situation was that it required both the father and the mother. Neglecting one and heightening the role […]
Read More Love To My MotherHo hum, the end of another month and indeed the end of the first quarter of the year. Thank God for that. It’s been a fascinating quarter moving from the cold of winter into the inklings of warmer climes and hibernation days over and real action beginning. As you’ve noticed on the blog this month, […]
Read More Living With RegretsWhat’s this? Another blog entry on the same day for the second day in a row? Is there some sort of escape hatch through which there is greater flexibility for blogging? No. I’m just inspired and so take the opportunity to share while it’s fresh. When I lived in Stoke-on-Trent I came across a gentleman […]
Read More Good Times With DMCDI am thoroughly enjoying the series on insights from Matthew, and although it appears as though I’m behind schedule with the chapters, trust me when I tell you it is all in hand and come Monday 28th February, it will be alright and all complete. It gives me sufficient time, however to address something that scandalously […]
Read More Remembering My BaptismJust a quick live-blog (as opposed to one prepared and typed out, etc.) to thank God for the month of January. It has been one of challenges to overcome, but also some tremendous enjoyable moments all of which I consider as blessings from God. Really happy to have started the Prayer Points series and that […]
Read More Thank God For JanuaryIt is with some trepidation but overall excitement that I announce the beginning of my look through the book of Matthew. As I mentioned on earlier on this year it has been a heart felt desire to go through gospels and share what pops out and now I have the chance to do that. I […]
