  • Look the Part…Play your Part

    Look the Part…Play your Part

    A #ThursdayThrowback post inspired by the Olympic Games. Look the Part…Play your part. These are the words that greeted me yesterday on a very large boxed package that arrived with my name on it. It was very exciting to receive such a large parcel through the post and then to unwrap it and read those…

  • Waiting Patiently…

    Waiting Patiently…

    On Sunday, the Lord spoke those two words “wait patiently” to me. I am reminded of this earlier post from August 2020 encouraging us as believers to be on our guard against deception. Satan is a counterfeiter of the things of God. It’s such a wicked thing to deceive people in this way by pretending…

    A first time for everything..

    Being away this week has given me an opportunity to do and try a few things for the very first time.

    Prayer for the week ahead…22/4/24…Do not forget

    “But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. But you, beloved, building…

  • When those going the wrong way met Jesus…Encounters with Jesus

    When those going the wrong way met Jesus…Encounters with Jesus

    The good news for all of us is that Jesus came and still comes to set us back on track when we are going the wrong way. Jesus set two of His followers back on the right course when he met them on a journey. In Luke 24 starting at verse 13, we read the…
