Do you ever get frustrated with how slowly you seem to be making progress? I sure do! This perfectionist has high standards! And I can get really frustrated with myself when I don’t meet them all! But I’m slowly learning that faithful, consistent, baby step progress actually leads to achieving a lot! I have grownContinue reading “Have you tried Baby Steps?”

The End of October Already?
Wow, somehow it got to the end of October! We’ve changed the clocks. Coming home from work is now a journey in the dark, with car lights gleaming and deep darkness all around! The world is getting cold and dark… but isn’t it beautiful, too, with the burning colours and the dancing leaves? The otherContinue reading “The End of October Already?”
Have we Forgotten Them?
I went to a conference the other day, about the transformation that God’s love can bring into our lives, bringing us hope and life, even in our struggles. It’s what I’m learning in my everyday life. Sure, the Christian life isn’t easy. But God is incredible. And I’m learning that the hope and life HeContinue reading “Have we Forgotten Them?”
Looking for the Unshakeable in a Shaking World?
What do you do when you face challenges? Big ones? Or even small ones? What do you do in times of change? What do you do when your world comes crashing down? When the world (and maybe your world) feels big and frightening and uncertain? Again and again, I’ve found that the Sunday School answersContinue reading “Looking for the Unshakeable in a Shaking World?”
Going Through a Time of Change?
Are you going through a time of big change? Maybe you can remember what it’s like? Do you remember how it affected you? Do you remember what helped? I know I’ve blogged on this before, but I thought it would be helpful to do so again. I’m in transition at the moment, having just startedContinue reading “Going Through a Time of Change?”
When You Are Afraid
Do you know what it’s like to be anxious? I do! I guess it’s one of my biggest battlegrounds. Have you found things that help? I belong to Jesus. Trusting in Him as Saviour and following Him as Lord, God’s promises of comfort, protection and provision are mine (and they can be yours, too, ifContinue reading “When You Are Afraid”
When God Helps You Do Something You Thought You Could Never Do
Is there something you think you could never do, but you wonder if God might just want you to do it one day? Maybe something you want to do, but you just feel too afraid to try? If it’s something that’s from the Lord and in His plan, I bet that it isn’t impossible afterContinue reading “When God Helps You Do Something You Thought You Could Never Do”
When God Surprises You With His Kindness
I just want to give testimony to God’s unexpected kindness. His mercy. How sometimes He can surprise you with something you didn’t see coming, but something you needed. I’d been in full-time ministry a long time. I was pretty worn out. I’d battled anxiety on and off. I thought a few times that a SabbaticalContinue reading “When God Surprises You With His Kindness”
While You Are Waiting
What do you do while you are waiting? Isn’t it easy to worry? Get frustrated? Panic? Ok, so my life really changed recently. God made it really clear that He is moving me on to a different ministry. I kind of know what that will be, but it’s not quite clear yet. And, right now,Continue reading “While You Are Waiting”
When Your World Suddenly Changes…
Wow, so it’s a bit of a crazy time right now! A few weeks ago, everything changed when the Lord made it clear that He is leading me to leave my role in ministry, which I’ve done for over 13 years, because He is calling me to something new. I’m still friends with everyone, butContinue reading “When Your World Suddenly Changes…”
