Thoughts from my tent..
I just got back from another week of camping. These are thoughts I wrote while I was there… So I’m back in a tent for another week of worshipping Jesus with many others and sharing about what He is doing across the seas in Asia.

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?”

There are a lot of ideas in this world of ours that just aren’t true… and yet they can hurt our hearts and weigh us down. One is the idea of what a meaningful, successful life is.
