What do you see as the best gift you could ever have in life? The thing you long for most of all? Something has been clicking in me recently, and I want to share it with you, because it’s life-changing. It’s something I should have realised a long time ago, and maybe I did, butContinue reading “When you Want the Very Best Gift of all…”

Why Life Doesn’t Have to be So Heavy
Do you know what it is to live often tense; often anxious? I sure do! The Lord has been showing me recently (again) that, the more I know I am loved, the more anxiety can fall away. I so often worry: living tense; inwardly fretful; hyper-vigilant. But I am His child. I am forgiven; accepted;Continue reading “Why Life Doesn’t Have to be So Heavy”
It’s Not Over Yet
Below are some words I wrote to encourage Christians who are going through hard times. When you are trusting Jesus as your Saviour and following Him as your Lord, though life can be very tough at times, there is always a reason to keep going, because God always has a good plan in the end.Continue reading “It’s Not Over Yet”
Is There a Safe Place in this Crazy World?
Is there a safe place in this crazy world? Do you ever feel frightened by the vulnerability; unpredictability of this crazy life? I do. And sometimes things happen that shock you, and could paralyse you with fear. Like what happened this week in Manchester. Manchester. The place I have learned to call home. I took aContinue reading “Is There a Safe Place in this Crazy World?”
A Place to Rest and Remember He is God
This is another full week when I’m busy preparing for a session in a recording studio. There isn’t a lot of time for blogging. So I thought I’d share a poem I wrote a while ago. I wrote it at a time when I was pretty anxious and fretful, and on holiday. In the midst ofContinue reading “A Place to Rest and Remember He is God”
You’re Surrounded by Far More Love Than You Realise
One thing I have been learning recently, more and more, is about living in the Father’s presence, aware of His love. Whether or not we realise it, the Father is always there with us; surrounding us; reaching out to us in love. He gave His Son so that we can turn back to Him, be forgiven and receiveContinue reading “You’re Surrounded by Far More Love Than You Realise”
Have you ever longed for a friend who will never let you down?
Have you ever longed for someone who would always be there for you? Who would listen to you and never say the wrong thing? Who would love you no matter what you had done? Who would help you perfectly through every season and never, ever let you down? When I was a young girl atContinue reading “Have you ever longed for a friend who will never let you down?”
Remembering to Taste the Joy…
Do you ever forget to smile? To taste the joy? To be thankful for the little gifts right now? Do you ever look back and wonder why you lived that season so miserably, fretting and complaining, instead of appreciating what was good about it? This is me processing something I think the Lord has been remindingContinue reading “Remembering to Taste the Joy…”
Help and Hope for the Journey…
A passage that the Lord has been speaking to me through a lot lately is Psalm 23, so I thought I would share some thoughts about it. To be honest, life isn’t always easy, is it? Belonging to Jesus as Saviour and Lord is incredible. But it isn’t always easy. And, in my experience, servingContinue reading “Help and Hope for the Journey…”
The Day That Changed History Forever…
What does Good Friday mean to you? To me? How easily it can become routine: to remember the cross where He died. How easily it can become normal to take bread and wine; taking it lightly that He gave His life. But it isn’t light. It’s earth- shattering. It’s shocking. It’s life-changing. It’s real. HeContinue reading “The Day That Changed History Forever…”
