Recently, something clicked in me. We listened to a message, which encouraged us to look back at the past, at what God has done, so you can have hope for the future. And I realised that blogging to testify to God’s faithfulness is a really good idea. That message was a helpful reminder. Sometimes youContinue reading “How Looking Back to God’s Faithfulness Can Help With Faith”

What If I Really Believed God Will Answer My Prayers?
The Lord has been speaking to me recently about hope, and faith, and His promises. To be honest, I can tend to be negative; pessimistic. Anxious. I have an overactive imagination. Imagining extreme things that could happen. Imaging the worst. Even though I am praying about things. Even though I am His. I am forgiven.Continue reading “What If I Really Believed God Will Answer My Prayers?”
I Get to Live
I guess this is a continuation from my last blog post: about realising how precious right now is. The other day, I went to the doctors, to check out something I was worried about. It was fine. I should have known, really. I worry far too much! But that ‘all okay’ changed the day forContinue reading “I Get to Live”
Why Right Now Matters
Do you ever catch yourself wondering where the time has gone? One of my friends got my thinking recently… about time. About how fast time goes. About how you can’t get it back. His wife had to go to hospital. In the end, she was fine, but it made him think. What if sheContinue reading “Why Right Now Matters”
Here is Love
Here is where life starts. Here is where it all begins. This was the moment when God gave His life And people are born forever. Here you kneel in your stains. Here you learn what love really is. Here rebels fall dressed in tatters and rags And they rise as white as snow. As they find…Continue reading “Here is Love”

It fills me with such joy to see the first snowdrop… the first daffodil… to hear the birds sing… After the long, dark days of winter, though it comes gradually, spring keeps coming… and it feels like such a gift. Below is a poem I wrote one spring, whenContinue reading “The Hope of Spring”

The Lord has teaching me recently about trust: about the Lord teaching us; helping us quieten down the anxious flow of thoughts and planningsContinue reading “More Thoughts on Trust and Peace”

When You Think No-One Could Heal Your Heart
The other day, I was in a conversation with someone, which made me think. There’s something I want to share in response. So here goes: Jesus can heal the broken-hearted. Nothing is too hard for Him. He knows us. He made us. He cares about every sigh; every tear. And He is able to healContinue reading “When You Think No-One Could Heal Your Heart”
The Faith That Delights God’s Heart
Something God has been teaching me about lately is faith. I think that faith brings joy to the heart of God. Simple, childlike faith. Faith that believes God is good, trusts in Him and follows Him through Jesus, and chooses to live like He is good and run with it. I belong to Jesus. My sins areContinue reading “The Faith That Delights God’s Heart”
