Here is where life starts. Here is where it all begins. This was the moment when God gave His life And people are born forever. Here you kneel in your stains. Here you learn what love really is.

Tuning in to the Father’s Love
Do you struggle to be confident in who you are; struggle with trying to get your identity from how other people respond to you? I do. It’s something I often battle with. I can be hyper aware of how people respond to me; of what they say, and how they react. And it can quicklyContinue reading “Tuning in to the Father’s Love”
Looking Back and Counting Your Blessings
Do you ever find yourself complaining about what you don’t have? Or worrying about what tomorrow will bring? I was listening to a message the other day, encouraging us to look back at the faithfulness of God, and be encouraged that He will be faithful for the future. And it’s so true. He has been,Continue reading “Looking Back and Counting Your Blessings”
His Songs of Joy
Are you ever stunned by a glimpse of God being much more big and wonderful than than the boxes we put Him in? Sometimes you get a glimpse of something astounding, which blows you away. A few weeks ago, I was on another camping trip, representing GFA World at the BigChurchDayOut. I love trips likeContinue reading “His Songs of Joy”
Thoughts on Going into a New Year…
I don’t know how it happened, but already we are on the cusp of another year, and it’s time to reflect and pray and take stock again. How do I look at another year? To be honest, sometimes I’m a bit afraid of what the new year will bring; what trials will come; how IContinue reading “Thoughts on Going into a New Year…”
If I Were at the Manger…
Christmas is almost here and I want to spend more time thinking about what it means before it’s all over and life rushes forward. I want to think with my words: to stop slow at the manger and breathe- and grasp something of what it means. So I want to try and do that inContinue reading “If I Were at the Manger…”
What Do You Really Want for Christmas?
What do you really want for Christmas? What do I really want for Christmas? A present? Something you’ve wanted wrapped up with a ribbon? We may or may not get those things wrapped up in a box for us on Christmas Day. But there’s one thing we can know for sure: God has given us a GiftContinue reading “What Do You Really Want for Christmas?”
More on anxiety… How being loved changes everything…
Our Father always knows what’s best. Sometimes that’s easy to see. Often, it’s very hard. But it’s true, just the same. If we are following Jesus, we are so, so secure in God’s love (and if you’re not a Christian yet, you can find that security by becoming one!). God has been encouraging me inContinue reading “More on anxiety… How being loved changes everything…”
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?”
