You can’t disappoint God

You can’t disapppoint God. Read that again. Slowly. You. Can’t. Disappoint. God. Some of you reading that will be thinking, “well, duh! That’s obvious! I already knew that!” If that’s you, you don’t need to read the rest of this post. But some of you will be a bit like me and need to takeContinue reading “You can’t disappoint God”

Sometimes, it sucks…

I don’t know about you, but sometimes that’s how I feel. “This sucks…” ‘This’ could be one of many things. It could be related to work, home, family, or health, or something else entirely. Maybe it’s looking at the world and seeing poverty or violence. But whatever it is, sometimes it’s just plain rubbish andContinue reading “Sometimes, it sucks…”

40 day  challenge Easter Sunday bonus: Joy is infectious

We’ve left lent and entered into the season of Easter. So, to bring the challenge to a conclusion and enter into the new season, I have one last post to write. (Don’t worry, I mean the last post in this series. I will write more, just not every day!) Yesterday night, after writing the postContinue reading “40 day  challenge Easter Sunday bonus: Joy is infectious”

40 day challenge day 41… the day of stillness

So, the 41st post in a 40 day challenge. I made a mistake at the beginning and wrote a full post on a Sunday, so reached the end of my 40 days before I reached the end of lent. So the final lenten post. On Good Friday, we remember Jesus dieing. On Easter Sunday weContinue reading “40 day challenge day 41… the day of stillness”

40 day challenge day 40: Those that Jesus loved

It’s the 40th post in the 40 day challenge. Because I posted on the first Sunday of lent, I’ve arrived at day 40 a day before lent ends…. Which means there’s another post coming tomorrow. But today’s post has been mulling in my mind for a little while. What can I write on the dayContinue reading “40 day challenge day 40: Those that Jesus loved”

40 day challenge day 39: The leader who served

I have just got back from a Maundy Thursday service combined with a meal. It was really well put together. There was some liturgy, some hymns, some readings and homemade soup. We sang some of the hymns I put on the list last Sunday (Brother, Sister, let me serve you and My Song is LoveContinue reading “40 day challenge day 39: The leader who served”

40 day challenge day 38: Romans 12

I was reading some writing I had done a few years ago. I found a bit of writing about Romans 12. It is based on a particular verse that I found encouraging then, amd I still find encouraging now. I’ve been taught to read verses in context, so I looked up the test of theContinue reading “40 day challenge day 38: Romans 12”

40 day challenge day 37: You are not lame

One of the messages I am constantly trying to share with people is that they are fab. I have never met a person who was ‘lame’, although I have met some people who would call themselves that. God never calls anyone lame. In the bible, Jesus goes out of his way to make people feelContinue reading “40 day challenge day 37: You are not lame”
