Ok, so I think I need to blog again on trust, because it’s an issue God is speaking to me about, and trying to encourage others encourages my heart, too! From the world’s side of things, sometimes trusting and obeying God looks like risk. From the side of reality, which is the side of faithContinue reading “More for worriers like me…”

For worriers like me…
Do you ever struggle with worry? So often, the answer is found just in resting in the Father’s love. I am such a worrier. I look ahead and try to see what God will do: how He will provide. I panic and fret and try to make God’s plans for Him. But I am learningContinue reading “For worriers like me…”
Who will tell them?
I don’t even know when I first came to know Jesus as my Saviour. I was tiny, I know. I was taken to Sunday School from the age of two, and there I learned that Jesus died in my place so that I can be forgiven, and that He wanted to come into my lifeContinue reading “Who will tell them?”
Are you searching for love you just can’t seem to find?
This is the time of year when I get to spend two weeks in a tent. And, to be honest, I love it. Ok, so the tent thing brings challenges. But the other side of it is that, along with thousands of others, I get to soak in the presence of my Heavenly Father’s incredible,Continue reading “Are you searching for love you just can’t seem to find?”
Tired? Weary? Battle worn?
The Arms of Jesus are reaching out to us in love, waiting to freely give us all we need. Sometimes, as Christians, we get tired. Serving Jesus can be hard. This life can be tough. Sometimes, we get deep scars from the fight, and it’s hard to keep going. And Jesus wants to meet usContinue reading “Tired? Weary? Battle worn?”
Thoughts on turning 30…
Do you ever wonder how the time went by so fast? I really don’t know how it happened, but somehow I’ve reached the 30 mark. It’s made me do a lot of thinking, and I thought I’d share some of those thoughts (not that I have them sorted, because I don’t, but just to shareContinue reading “Thoughts on turning 30…”
Has Brexit maybe brought a little fear to your heart?
Does the world ever seem a frightening place to you? It does to me! Things can sometimes seem crazy and upside down and out of hand and I sometimes wonder how I can find a truly safe place to stand on. And, yes, Brexit hasn’t helped that feeling either. Of course, I knew it wasContinue reading “Has Brexit maybe brought a little fear to your heart?”
Do you ever wonder where the time has gone?
This life is so, so short. Why do I forget that? Any moment now, I could be in eternity. And, yes, my future is secure. Yes, trusting in Jesus, my sins are forgiven. Yes, in Christ, I have eternal hope (and, if you don’t, believe me, you need it- the stakes are too high toContinue reading “Do you ever wonder where the time has gone?”
Do you long to know that you are loved?
Knowing that you are really, truly loved by God your Heavenly Father changes everything. I spent many years of my life struggling to believe that the Father loves me. I came to know Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord when I was very small (maybe 4 or 5), but, as I grew, I feltContinue reading “Do you long to know that you are loved?”
When Waiting is Hard…
My little friend, Anna, is around 20 months old. There’s one word that she’s learned, but she doesn’t understand. If I say to her ‘Wait!’, she will repeat the word. She will wiggle her fingers, making the baby sign that she learned when she was very small. But she doesn’t understand! She asks for foodContinue reading “When Waiting is Hard…”
