How are you doing with lockdown? It got to me a bit the other day. I guess it probably gets to you a bit sometimes, too. It’s so unnatural not to be allowed to go out, or see people we love. There are many challenges in this time. But the thing that’s disturbing me theContinue reading “Remembering to Care”

What If I Really Believed God Will Answer My Prayers?
The Lord has been speaking to me recently about hope, and faith, and His promises. To be honest, I can tend to be negative; pessimistic. Anxious. I have an overactive imagination. Imagining extreme things that could happen. Imaging the worst. Even though I am praying about things. Even though I am His. I am forgiven.Continue reading “What If I Really Believed God Will Answer My Prayers?”
A Very Powerful Force That is Available to Us All…
Something I’ve been learning about recently is prayer. I’m learning that prayer is a powerful, powerful thing. Because God is all powerful and and prayer is God acting in answer to the words of feeble men and women. Those who come to God through Jesus (which we all can do if we come on HisContinue reading “A Very Powerful Force That is Available to Us All…”
Do You Ever Put God in a Box?
Do you ever underestimate God? Expect Him to act in a certain way? Limit what you think He can or will do? I remember a friend at University, who used to talk about ‘putting God in a box’. Yup, I do that. And then He bursts the boxes apart by doing far more thanContinue reading “Do You Ever Put God in a Box?”
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?”
A Love that can Change your Life…
Something God has been ministering to me deeply is His love as Father. It’s the most astounding, healing, freeing, wonderful truth… And it’s everything our souls truly crave and long for. I’d like to blog about it because it’s so wonderful, and so, so transforming and healing and good! Knowing that you are loved byContinue reading “A Love that can Change your Life…”
When you’re striving and all you really need is to be still…
The more I go through this life, the more I’m learning that the answer is always to come back to my Heavenly Father: to come into His presence and wait on Him. In His presence, we find all we need. There is a place where we can find comfort for our trials; peace for anxiety;Continue reading “When you’re striving and all you really need is to be still…”
Can you relate to these thoughts?
Sometimes I catch myself thinking things like this: ‘That’s never going to change.’ ‘That’s just too big a problem.’ ‘If God was going to answer, He would have done so by now.’ ‘It’s too late for that to ever change.’ ‘I could never pray enough about that, so I might as well not pray atContinue reading “Can you relate to these thoughts?”
No Matter What…
No matter what, Jesus is the Answer. He heals the broken-hearted. He sets the prisoner free. He brings joy where there shouldn’t be joy. He forms beauty out of ashes. He raises praise out of despair. He brings transformation: surprising, stunning transformation where you thought there was no hope. When you thought you should giveContinue reading “No Matter What…”
It was Just a Dream- or was it?
Last night, I had a dream. In the dream, I was in Syria. A country at war. It was a terrible, frightening world. Nowhere was safe. I kept having to move on. It was a world of dreadful chaos and fear. It was the stuff of nightmares. In the dream, I had some children withContinue reading “It was Just a Dream- or was it?”
