Reading and listening and watching and observing I come across statements and phrases that are kinda the done thing to say in certain areas. So for example there’s this wonderful word called ‘proactive’ which people need to be to make progress in life – not reactive, but proactive. Then there is the business-speak possibly influenced […]
Read More The Sweet SpotThere is always a time for a clean out. I was looking at the contacts on my mobile phone and deleting those that it was clear had surpassed their usefulness. You know the ones. They’ve taken up space in there and you contact only once in a while and even there the contact isn’t that […]
Read More Not Everyone Will Go With You …Sometimes I can despair because of so many different things, from the world around me to the world inside me and my inability to deal with the issues that keep plaguing me. A source of constant reassurance that I don’t expect the world to understand, and I don’t fully comprehend it but nevertheless rest in […]
Read More There Is No Failure In GodSome songs are good reminders of the fact that it maybe all well and good telling God how much I love Him and I’m thankful, but actually all that good stuff I’m getting is meant to be displayed to humanity through acts of love, kindness and grace. Commissioned came out with a beauty of a […]
Read More CD Songs: Lord Jesus Help Me To Help Somebody – Commissioned ReunionHere is how this lesson was taught to me. I’ve been in my current place of employment since April and in that time I’ve developed good working relations with the other colleagues who form the work team. I especially built a good friendship with one particular dude based on our shared interest in football and […]
Read More Another Lesson On PerspectiveThis is an episode in how I let excitement overtake me and actually forget to read the thing properly. I was reminded about it when I watched a clip of a preacher on his ‘preachy vibe’. (You know the one where he wishes he had a church in here and he doesn’t hear anyone but […]
Read More Grace Is Power? Do Me A FavourMarvin Sapp. What a brother. He did some tribute to Marvin Winans that I posted a while ago. I came across this tribute a while ago that I didn’t post at the time – shame on me. So I’m making up for lost time. What you have to recall is that Sapp was actually a […]
Read More DMCD Songs: King of Glory – Marvin Sapp & The Soul SeekersThere are times when the gospel industry, hey when Christianity itself can appear somewhat … fake. You know what I mean? You’re expected to praise when they tell you to praise, you’re expected to have it altogether, you’re expected to accept what you hear about the sparkling materially enriched life you have as a Christian […]
Read More Telling The Truth – Kirk FranklinI saw this picture (Thanks to The Meta Picture) and at first recognised it for it’s humour and then looked closer and considered how real it is. Sure it reflects the American concept of the normal life, but it’s not that different to the British version. In fact quite a number of cultures and sub-cultures […]
Read More This Is Freedom?Assumptions. We are making them frequently they are rough guides to decisions and conclusions we’ll reach at various stages. Some of them are right, some of them are wrong. Either way we’ll keep plodding on assuming this, that and the other. If you had talked about what sunk the Titanic I would have given you […]
