Recently I was thinking about what it is to live the Spirit-filled life. I had attended a church service, which, in my view, had a lot of good things were performance was concerned – acoustics, stagecraft, etc, but in terms of the human environment it seemed to be a little lacking. The service was somewhat […]
Read More What Did He Show You Today?It was the way he mentioned longing that really resonated with me. There’s been so much talk about feeling at home with your own culture. People wanting to return to where they’re comfortable and that comfort is defined by certain hallmarks of the background. Style of music, clothes, expression, etc. So much in the way […]
Read More LongingBroken. The pot was broken into little pieces. No one had an idea what to do, but it was clear that it could never be put back together again. It was broken too decisively. No craftsman or expert potter would be able to put that together again. Perhaps it would be better to just dispose […]
Read More Broken on PurposeYou 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 LedIf 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. Yeah.

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. Yet you were still remembered and the promise was fulfilled. It could only be Unfailing Love. You tricked and schemed in a bid to let things […]
Read More Unfailing LoveTheir allure is great at the start. The fire burns fierce. Then it ebbs, then it flickers, then it peters out. It was worth something at the start, but lost its value over time. Some would evoke feelings for it as though it was something grand, something brilliant, something with such an essence that drew […]
Read More Worth AdmiringBreathing and hearing. There is a narrative outlining the beginning of humanity. That narrative starts with man being formed from the dust of the earth. Indeed it really is dust to dust when you see how the human form decomposes. What made man a living being was the capacity given to breath by a breath. […]
Read More Take A Breath And Hear ThisGrowing up in a church background, there was a statement I heard bandied about as a badge of honour. I’m Holy Ghost filled, water baptised with Jesus on my mind. As with a number of statements, they were easy to declare in a conducive setting. Music playing, feeling the vibe, sensing the mood, uplifted in […]
Read More About A Sentiment Worth ReviewingHe really knows what He’s doing. No one person has the complete picture of Him, but we all have access to Him in His fullness. If each of us looks to the other to listen and understand. If we seek to listen and not have to give the benefit of our opinion. If we listen […]
