  • Maintaining inner peace!

    As Christians we have a permanent relationship of peace with God. This is because Jesus Christ secured it when he gave his life on our behalf to reconcile us to God. We now have continual fellowship with the Father and His Son. However, there will still be times when our feelings seem to tell us…

  • BOUGHT BY GOD

    Have you ever considered that God actually purchases things. Well it’s true, and when He does He pays the purchase price. Of course you guessed it, I’m talking about God buying us back as His possession. As a young man growing up I was fashion conscious and no different to the other guys. You had…

  • God’s stamp of approval!

    We all respond to a compliment, it makes us feel warm inside. It reminds me of those stamps we used to get at primary school. The teacher would have an array of pretty ones to put in our workbook; a sort of tick for well done! As we live our Christian life there can be…

  • Faith Polishing!

    Sometimes it’s time for a bit of cleaning because things do get a little dirty over time; things still function, but not as well. Just recently I cleaned our house windows inside and out, they were okay… they obviously still let in the light! But if I took an Instagram pic from inside the house…

  • The Spirit of Christ!

    The role of the Holy Spirit in our lives as Christians is important as breathing. Sometimes we are unaware of the Spirit’s functioning but it is never the less essential to our spiritual health. Wind is a symbol of the Holy Spirit and Jesus also spoke of the Spirit as rivers of living water. The…

  • A Companion for life!

    There is an incident in the Gospel narrative where the disciples were out fishing in two boats. They had fished all night and caught nothing but Jesus asked them to put down their nets again. They caught so many fish that the nets were in danger of breaking and the other boat had to come…

  • AMEN CORNER!

    Most of us would have said amens at the end of church prayers. Also, it is not uncommon today to hear people saying an “Amen” to express agreement with what the preacher is saying. Historical research indicates that some churches would have actually had an Amen corner. This may have been a particular area of…
