    Not fitting the mould….

    Then said I:“Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” Jeremiah 1:6 When God called Jeremiah to be a prophet there was a fundamental problem as far as Jeremiah was concerned. He was too young for the role. He didn’t fit the mould. Jeremiah lived in a society where his elders…

    Dead or alive..

    I don’t know about you but sometimes, I get discouraged. I can’t see any good fruit in aspects of my life but then God reminds me of the deep work that he’s doing in Me. That the Spirit of God lives in me and I am made alive in Jesus Christ, but some of the…

  • Not my King?

    Not my King?

    So today is an historic day for us in the United Kingdom. A new King is being crowned today in Westminster Abbey. The crown is ready, the royal robes and all the pomp and ceremony. The ancient traditions mixed with some modern updates. The troops in all their finery, well wishers and crowds are already…
