You ever come across someone outline something that takes place in a matter-of-fact kind of way and later reflect and actually wonder how on earth they did it? The Bible is good at that. All over the place things are recorded and relayed to us as though these are things that regularly happen. Take for […]
Read More A Word On Being LedEvery day there’s a time when the decision is made. A lot of counselling and gesturing behind the scenes take place. Arguments are raised, subtle negotiating can be heard in whispers and debating can be fierce. Forces jockey for position to have the major say. They see who’s in charge and want to view any […]
Read More A Motion of Full ConfidenceIf I follow certain narratives of history, I could get the impression that it was easier back in the day. Who is he? He catches fish. Oh so he’s a fisherman.

Read More Who We Are and What We DoYou lied, despite all that was promised. You should have known better, but you completely denied all that and blatantly lied. That should have left you out of it.

Read More Developing an AppetiteWhat’s in the packed lunch today? Typically, back in the day, it was sandwiches, fruit, a packet of crisps, a sweet something of some sort – usually a chocolate bar and a drink. That used to be my favourite packed lunch. I didn’t get that all the time. There were certainly times where my Mum […]
Read More Packed Lunch for the JourneyThe first day going to school on his own was quite something. The night before his Mum checked to see if he had remembered to lay out everything he would wear. She also checked to see if he had remembered to get his bag packed properly. She also checked to see if he had remembered […]
Read More Set Up For The JourneyMaybe things will be better next time. It’s a thought I hear from people in various situations in life. The girl thinks that maybe the next relationship will turn out better. The man thinks that maybe the next job will turn out better. The child thinks that maybe the next birthday will turn out better.

Read More Hope for the JourneyThere are intangibles that somehow make all the tangible difference. That which allows people to make progress in life in a discernible way of progress, do so by the intangible. When they talk about hard work or smart work they are not necessarily referring to something that can be measured by the sweat of the […]
