The Holiday Report

Well as someone who hasn’t read the Bible has said, all good things must come to an end. That is definitely the case for my holidays as tomorrow sees me return to work.  School also kicks off again so there’s all the fun for the children as well. The Hols – In The Beginning It’s […]

Looking Ahead

On the one hand I’m not into New Years Resolutions. Anything worth planning for or resolving is something that should be part of every day life, so I have no recollection of any New Year’s resolution I’ve ever made and I have no recollection of making any in the last year or so. On the […]

My Friend, Jesus

Songs say so much. But first, back to television. The BBC broadcast a BAFTA tribute to comedian Ronnie Barker some six years ago and in the run-up to the seasonal period where people would mention the Two Ronnies, they showed the tribute again. Hopefully you know how these deals go on. Lots of showbiz types […]

A Tribute To A Wonderful Princess

I am surrounded by amazing people. Just when I get all introspective and think that I’m going through this life thing on my own, God reminds me of some crucial people in my circle of influence without whom I wouldn’t even be in the privileged position of being able to mope around being all introspective.

Going To Church Again

Due to the nature of this blog, it’s not always clear what actually is going on in my life at any one time. I’ll have a thought about something, I’ll create a series about something else and only occasionally will the actual substance of significant aspects of my life emerge. That’s not a bad thing […]

Sabbath Reflections

Earlier today I blogged on Jesus being the Lord of the Sabbath. I’m sure other people have different interpretations of that claim referring to the centrality of the Sabbath being based on Him or reference to the rest inferring the final rest and not the weekly observation. More renown men than I have debated the […]

Loving Jesus in December

I am really grateful to God for November. Overall, it was a good month.  It was my birthday month and me birthday itself was alright – thanks again to those who remarked on it on me Facebook wall.  I managed to get back to Stoke-on-Trent for the first time particularly since I moved to Bletchley.
