Just what I needed to hear…

Have you ever read or heard something that seems to be exactly the right thing for that moment? Maybe a friend (or stranger) has said something you didn’t know you needed to hear, or you’ve read something that has struck a chord somewhere deep inside. Whichever, something that has brought clarity or comfort. That happenedContinue reading “Just what I needed to hear…”

40 day challenge day 29: Faith over Fear

A friend once gave me a picture. I love it and have it somewhere I can see it often. It has a mouse floating on a dandelion seed and says ‘let your faith be bigger than your fear’. Part of what I love about it is that it doesn’t say ‘don’t be afraid’ which isContinue reading “40 day challenge day 29: Faith over Fear”

40 day challenge day 13: Hands wide open

Yesterday I shared a seasonal piece of music that I love and which I find helps point me to God (which is the point of these 40 posts…). It was a long work, and quite intense.

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: Fasting week 3

It’s a strange feeling to get to the end of a week and stop to reflect. This week’s post is also a couple of days late, but only because I’ve been trying to work out what to say. I made a note in my journal in the middle of the week about how exhausted andContinue reading “Hunting for God: Fasting week 3”

Hunting for God: Prayer week 3

After three weeks I do feel like this has been a useful hunt for me. Each week I’ve come to this point and feel like I have something worth sharing. I’m aware this is a hope blog, so what I’m hoping is that anyone reading this will see how my hunt for a deeper relationshipContinue reading “Hunting for God: Prayer week 3”
