My daughter Abigail has lots of energy. She positively thrives on bouncing and dancing from one thing to another. Just when I think she does not have enough, she bounds across with even more. She is incredible. Yet come Friday evening, without fail, the Energiser Bunny that is Abigail, runs out of power. She slows […]
Read More It Is Good To RestA week’s worth of hardship. A week’s worth of work. A week’s worth of trial. A week’s worth of sweat, toil. So at the end of that week – God says rest. God is not a genius – genius wants to be God. Thank you God for rest. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd

The immense irony of this predicament is that to meet God where He is requires conflict. War must be fought to gain peace. I can’t afford to live off the mantra of anything for a quiet life, […]
Read More Quest For The Rest vs. Anything For A Quiet LifeWell as someone who hasn’t read the Bible has said, all good things must come to an end.

In as much as I’ve been a part of a family before – after all I grew up with my brother, sister, mother and father – I’ve never been in this position in a family before, namely […]
Read More Returning to the Power of the StoryNothing much for this time of evening. It’s another blessed Sabbath evening. Most of the family are asleep and I’ll be heading that way in the not too distant future. I was considering thought what it is about the Sabbath as a communal celebration that should make it something to eagerly await and embrace. I’m […]
Read More Just Some Sabbath ReflectionsSo I’ve talked before about hard work being lazy – do you know what effort goes into doing your best to do little or nothing?
