Love does…not Envy
Love, in its truest form, is not threatened by others because it knows the Source. Envy emerges when we believe grace is scarce. But love is grounded in the reality of God’s boundless generosity. Love is able to rest in the stillness of knowing: What God gives, He gives in fullness, not in competition. There is enough room at the table. There is enough light in the day.
Anzac day 2025
We struggle to comprehend this. We all love those who serve, but for the majority who don not, giving your life for another at the cost of your own family, your own plans and hopes…that is difficult to grasp. Somehow Anzac Day creates a way for us to momentarily reflect and appreciate this difficult to grasp reality - helping us to develop perhaps again a gratitude, an honour and a respect for those who somehow find it in their heart to put their lives in the firing line.
Love is…Kind
The kindness of love is not confined to the grand gesture. More often, it is the small, unnoticed act, a word withheld to avoid wounding, a door held open, a cup of water offered without fanfare. It is the habit of making space, of choosing understanding over judgment, of seeing the sacred in the other. Philippians 2:3-4
Love is…Patient
To say that love is patient is not merely to suggest that love can wait; it is to say that love knows how to wait. It is to say that love enters time without anxiety. Love does not rush. Love does not force. Love abides.Ten years have passed, and his argument has remained my companion in thought, pressing upon me in moments of stillness.
Light will always overcome darkness
Easter is a reminder that hope is never lost. Light will always overcome darkness, in fact light and darkness cannot exist together.
The Way Of Love – Part 1
Ten years have passed, and his argument has remained my companion in thought, pressing upon me in moments of stillness.
Enkindle - Thou shall not drink
Ten years have passed, and his argument has remained my companion in thought, pressing upon me in moments of stillness.
Enkindle - one cent
But when He looked at me, there was no anger, no condemnation. Only compassion. His eyes were filled with a kindness so profound that it took my breath away. And then He spoke. “Daughter,” He said gently, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”
Letting go, to move forward…..
That stuck feeling is different and often requires action from us. It may be that we have followed a plan of our own design rather than the one that God has for us. It may feel like a good plan but is it the right one?
Enkindle - Who touched me?
But when He looked at me, there was no anger, no condemnation. Only compassion. His eyes were filled with a kindness so profound that it took my breath away. And then He spoke. “Daughter,” He said gently, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”
Enkindle - Love is like the wind
Of all the marvels and wonders which you may encounter, this truth stands supreme: God is love.
Fruit in abiding
Time is such an interesting concept and in the face of Eternity and our walk with the Lord even more so. God's word advises us to use our time wisely because we do not know what tomorrow holds.
Grow in revelation
I am not talking about Christian hobbies or preferences. We are talking about focusing more on Jesus, simply to know Jesus more? Like what was His reaction when…. How did Jesus handle…. Why did Jesus say… Who did Jesus engage…
confidence in the eternal
Eternal things have to do with both life and reward beyond this present life. Temporal things can be seen but they only relate to this present life, they are constantly changing, unreliable and will not last for long. May we seek always eternal first.
New Year and what we have in Christ
Imagine how our lives could change when we fully grasp what we have in Christ. Imagine the impact that we will have on others as they see us transformed. Set aside time to spend in Prayer and in the Living word of God. We can never have too much of his word. His word will always change you- be confident in it.
Enkindle - Prayer in the new testament
Prayer in the New Testament; Ephesians 6:18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
New things
Lets not keep living off the memory of an experience in the past, Jesus wants our attention now – it is a continuous current relationship – Real and Alive. And so that the new can remain untainted, we need to keep looking to Jesus and not allow ourselves to dwell in the past.
Revelation
It is so important that we take time to connect with Jesus and to spend time in the Word. The Revelation of Scripture will take us into an encounter with the very One who can transform us. There are times when we just need to hold fast and trust that the power of the Gospel is enough.
When i think of prayer
When I think of prayer, it is all about connecting with our Heavenly Father and our relationship with Him. We don't want to be the relative who comes knocking on the door with all sorts of demands but hasn't bothered to keep in touch for months.
Living as God intended
Prayer is breath for the spirit, intimate dialogue with the Father. It offers direction, comfort and peace. Intimate relationship with God can offer the true satisfaction and purpose that our hearts long for.
