Envy
This is an excellent post by Manu and if you missed it the first time around then I recommend a read. It is about Moses, Miriam and Aaron and the effect of sibling rivalry, envy and unhealthy comparisons. God takes action. As members of one body and brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus we need…

Feeding others..
The miracle of the feeding of the five thousand by Jesus has much to teach us today. The story is told in all four gospels. This verse from Mark’s gospel stood out to me. “But He (Jesus) answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” Mark.6.37 To set the context. The disciples…

Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you”. Matthew 5 11-12 These bible verses are the verses for today on…

In Green Pastures
I was searching on my bookcase yesterday for a book by C S Lewis. I know I have it but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I have probably either lent it to someone or put it elsewhere. I easily lose track of my books and am also a bit of a magpie. I did find…

Pick up your mat….
Last week, I had a word from the Lord which I shared in our church fellowship and it witnessed with some people and their situations. I feel prompted by the Holy Spirit to share this same word with you today. Please weigh and test and if it speaks to your heart too then please pray…

Being a team member (part 2)
So the morning of my first shift arrived and I have to say, I had a few butterflies. I felt like the new kid in town even though this was only the second day of the games. I didn’t know who I would be working with or what I would be doing for the next…
