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 3: Worthy of it all

Forgive me, this is a short post, possibly a bit of random rambling. I’m not feeling 100%, so I’m just sharing a moment when I met God today. I had an interesting kind of day today. It involved preparing for an event that we have subsequently had to cancel. But while I was merrily paintingContinue reading “40 day challenge day 3: Worthy of it all”

40 day challenge day 2: The wrong direction

Reading back through some previous posts, it almost reads like I’ve got it sorted, this walking with God thing, (I don’t) like I never waver (I do). My favourite stand alone film which I come back to time and again as a ‘feel-good’ film is The Frisco Kid. I may have posted about it before.Continue reading “40 day challenge day 2: The wrong direction”

40 day challenge day 1: The Power of Prayer

OK, so off to a good start. One day, one post. Can I keep this up? I hope so! I know I’ll feel richer for it at the end and hopefully some of you reading will to. Spending a little while each day focusing on who God is certainly can’t do any harm… So, whereContinue reading “40 day challenge day 1: The Power of Prayer”

Scattering the seed

There have been lots of changes for me recently. New job, new flat, and everything that goes with that. It was an overwhelming amount of change in one go. I felt a little lost and, if I’m being completely honest, a little inadequate in my new role. But I also had the privilege of seeingContinue reading “Scattering the seed”

Hunting for God: Solitude 2/2

Solitude is more a state of mind and heart than it is a place. Richard Foster, Celebration of Discipline I had to start here, with this quote taken from Foster’s book. I had to share this revelation and discovery. Because just being alone and finding silence isn’t enough – that can just lead to loneliness,Continue reading “Hunting for God: Solitude 2/2”

God equips the called

I was going to tag this on to the last post but as I was writing I felt it was important enough to deserve it’s own page. 6 weeks without posting, then twice in one day! I have written before about how important my friends have been as I have learnt about having a relationshipContinue reading “God equips the called”

Hunting for God: Study and the bible week 3 and 4

I didn’t write last week, partly because I didn’t have much to report, and partly because this month I’m aiming to walk 21,000 steps a day and I was exhausted. That means I also didn’t have a huge amount of energy to read books, because I couldn’t manage to concentrate on the words. As IContinue reading “Hunting for God: Study and the bible week 3 and 4”
