WHO SAYS these mountains won’t move? Sometimes the work can feel overwhelming. The problems can seem insurmountable. The weight can weigh you down. When you’re following and serving Jesus, sometimes it feels like you’re walking through treacle. Sticky, impossible treacle. And Satan’s not exactly silent, is he? “I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, andContinue reading “WHO SAYS these mountains won’t move?”

Remembering Him
So often, I just need to be reminded of the Lord: that He loves me; that He’s with me; that, because I am in Him, it really is going to be okay. Isn’t it so easy to forget Him in the busyness of life? And yet, through it all, He loves me. He wants toContinue reading “Remembering Him”
Ask!
God can do amazing things. Never underestimate Him. Never try to put Him in a box. He is far, far bigger than that. He is God. And He loves to amaze His people. God loves to answer prayer. He loves to respond to our asking- not just doing what we ask but doing far, far,Continue reading “Ask!”
So, So Loved
He loves us so, so much. If we belong to Christ then, in His Son, we are covered. He is our Father. We are His treasured possession, the apple of His eye. The slate is washed clean. We are forgiven. It just doesn’t matter what anyone says. We are His. He has the final say. And we areContinue reading “So, So Loved”
Is something troubling you?
It’s a firm favourite in my family: that old, familiar hymn: ‘What a Friend we Have in Jesus.’ And it’s true. No matter what the need; no matter the guilt; no matter the problem, there is always One you can turn to. One Who will always understand. One Who will never let you down. NoContinue reading “Is something troubling you?”
The Key to Peace
Do you struggle to trust Him sometimes? I know I do! He has been teaching me things that are wonderful… and I am struggling to apply. They’re still worth sharing, though, so here goes… The key to peace is trusting Him. It’s being little and letting Him be God. Letting Him have control. And actuallyContinue reading “The Key to Peace”
Wait for Him
God’s timing is perfect. Don’t try to rush ahead of Him. Don’t give up because you can’t see Him working. Don’t lose heart because it doesn’t make sense. He knows what He is doing, and there is a reason for the delay… and a glorious plan beyond it! “He hath made every thing beautiful inContinue reading “Wait for Him”
Spring
Don’t you just love spring? All through autumn and winter, deep down, I am yearning for spring: for the sunshine; for the birdsong; for the flowers. Deep in the heart of winter, sometimes it can feel that spring is so, so far away. You wait for weeks and weeks… and then suddenly the snowdrops are bravelyContinue reading “Spring”
Moments
Do you sometimes find yourself going through the motions and forgetting to take the joy: forgetting to be grateful for the blessings that surround you? I know I do! Lately, I’ve occasionally caught myself in the busyness, going full steam ahead, forgetting to breathe for a second and thank God for the moment. Life inContinue reading “Moments”
It’s all about Him
It’s all about Him. It’s all about knowing Him; about bringing Him glory. In our crazy, craving, restless world, how quickly we look to other things: how quickly we search in other places. But it’s all about Him. It’s all about Christ. Everything was “created by him, and for him” (from Col 1:16c, KJV). HeContinue reading “It’s all about Him”
