In life, faith in Christ has a remarkable way of helping you greatly even in dismal times. This works when your footsteps are directed by the one who walks ahead of you.
Read More Solid September Signing: Walking Where Light Shines The WayIt’s not just the fact that time is money. It’s about just how valuable time is anyway in regard to the things we use it for. Wasted time is tragic because money may be around but that time is lost. Lost never to be regained again. I often read the aspect of Jesus challenging those […]
Read More Solid September Signing: Carefully Counting The Cost Of CommitmentLove expressed is giving. I am impressed over and over again with how God expresses His character, in giving. Creation – giving. Salvation giving. Redemption – giving. He keeps on giving. He loves it. So how does He expect His children to behave? It’s not unreasonable at all. Yet there’s the ongoing challenge of the […]
Read More Solid September Sale: Seeking Christ Means Self Must GoToday sees the end of the transfer window in football here in England. I knew you’d be ecstatic to hear it. For the uninitiated, from July to today football clubs have the chance to strengthen their sides by buying and selling players. Usually teams want to emerge when the window closes with a better squad […]
Read More Solid September: Searching And Strengthening For The Spiritual SojournThere are some who inform me eternity would be boring. Such thoughts make me chuckle.

Preaching captives set free, prisoners liberated, broken hearted healed. That is so beautiful.

Read More An Awe Inspiring Experience: Captivated By Jesus’ BeautySilence. I know some who are frightened of silence. The stillness. The lack of activity. The absence of noise. It freaks some people out. They don’t feel of any use to anyone unless they are doing something, saying something! Some church gatherings appear dubious of being quiet. (With good reason in some cases.) They are […]
Read More A Comfort To Know: He Whispers Sweet PeaceWith friends like this … A group of us were looking at Psalm 3. It’s an interesting time in the life of King David. And calling him King David is at the time an interesting statement. His son that he loved, Absalom, has usurped his position and strategically pushed David from the throne. The king […]
Read More An Acknowledgement That Not Everyone Is My FriendThat whole glass half full or glass half empty business. What was that all about? The optimist and pessimist both miss the point. The point of the glass is to be full. We look for the full measure of a situation. Our desire in relationships is to get the full picture. Reaching a conclusion in […]
Read More A Glass Half Full Or Empty Or OverflowingThere is something heartening about stories of redemption. Following football (or soccer if you must) as I do it, is often that players come along who develop a reputation. Assisted by fans and the media, that reputation seemingly forever shapes how the player is regarded. If that reputation is positive the player may on occasion […]
