  • Seeing but not seeing..

    They say familiarity breeds contempt. We see what we often expect to see rather than what is actually there especially in familiar environments. My husband will often say to me “noticed anything different”? That’s a statement that always brings a certain amount of blind panic to me. There’s obviously been a change which I’ve missed.…

  • Seeing is believing? 👀

    I had an interesting conversation with a friend the other day. I’ll call it a conversation but it did get a bit heated on his part. He was convinced that if God would just turn up out of the blue and show himself then a lot more people who have no faith (like him) would…

  • Feeling invisible

    Do you sometimes feel invisible? That people just don’t notice you. A visiting preacher from Turkey once told us that Mission begins with Seeing. In chapter 2 of the story of Ruth we read in verse 5 – Boaz said “whose young woman is this?” Ruth who was a foreigner, a stranger, a refugee who…

He had been taught the way of the Lord, and he taught others about Jesus with an enthusiastic spirit and with accuracy. However, he knew only about John’s baptism. When Priscilla and Aquila heard…
