    The Wind…

    The wind blows where it wishes. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:7-8 There…

    Feed My Lambs, Feed My Sheep

    These were the instructions which Jesus gave to his disciple Simon Peter, when he met him again in Galilee after His death and resurrection. This was the same Simon Peter who had denied knowing Jesus in his time of trial. Jesus had told Peter that he would deny Him, but Peter had protested that he…

  • IF….

    IF….

    This poem by Rudyard Kipling was on my mind when I woke this morning. Perhaps it’s words will resonate with someone reading today, especially those in the line which say “Hold on”. “If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself…

    Cast off the grave clothes

    Morning, this is my last re-post for the Easter season which I hope blesses and encourages you for the week ahead. When Jesus rose from the dead, He left his grave clothes in the tomb. I want to say that again- He left his grave clothes in the tomb. Why. Jesus didn’t need them anymore.…

    Jesus is Victorious

    This is a re-post of a dream that I had some years ago on the night of Good Friday. It was a very powerful dream and I recalled it clearly on waking and wrote it down. Last night (Good Friday 10th April) I had a dream in which I was in a large upper room…

    Fresh Bread (5) – our appetite

    The Lord keeps bringing these verses from Isaiah 55 back to mind over these last weeks. v1 “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. 2 Why spend money on what is not…

    Fresh Bread (4) God’s Banqueting table

    During this Holy Week as we consider the death and resurrection of Jesus, I am reminded of God’s banqueting table and that His banner over us there is love. Those words are from the Song of Solomon “He brought me to the banqueting house,And his banner over me was love.” Song of Songs 2.4 NKJV…

    Fresh Bread (3) Feeding others..

    The miracle of the feeding of the five thousand by Jesus has much to teach us today and is told in all four gospels. It’s such a well known miracle but this verse from Mark’s gospel really stood out to me. “But He (Jesus) answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.”…
