I was sent this email from someone to whom I’ve subscribed. I watched it and perked up at the statement Donnie makes, Don’t be a slave to your gift, don’t be a slave to your ability. Slavery and freedom are themes very close to my heart. I am never far away from acknowledging my frailties […]
Read More Identity In Christ-like CharacterSecurity is something highly valued by people. We are not far from the generation that believed in ‘jobs for life’ and marriages that should last forever.

Read More Security in Uncertain TimesSo this is April and any strong measures of winter are a thing of the past. The first quarter of the year has been a very interesting one. Among other things I’ve come across there is the importance of family time. Just to remind you, I came from a family unit of five people and […]

It comes from absolutely leftfield for me because I don’t often take the time to consider these issues in great detail, although I come across related issues like these occasionally.

Read More My Baggage – You’re Not Guilty AnymoreSo I spent February in the book of Matthew and March going through Proverbs. April sees a break from the month long series on a particular theme. There might be little themes cropping up and the occasional mini-series, but it’s a breather, to get some odd bits and pieces that rattling along in the mental […]
Read More Don’t Take It For Granted – What Is Prayer?Ho 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 RegretsCharm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. (Proverbs 31:30) The purpose of Proverbs is for readers to recognise what it takes to be and speak wise and thus aspire to wisdom above everything. Throughout the book it has not been an exercise of the head, but a commitment on […]
