Be Still in Your Busy Day
We are busy in our lives. Whether it is at work, at play, bringing up children, managing work colleagues or simply trying to make ends meet – we are busy and in today’s world, it seems we are getting busier. We are constantly pouring ourselves out into the lives of...

Carrying around the Death of Christ

Standing in Court… with God

How Deep is your Well?
How lovely it would be to have our own personal drinking Well? The water at the bottom of a natural source is beautiful. Cool, clear and full of natural minerals – untainted by the outside world. Drinking water from a Well such as this would certainly have health...

There was a Crooked Man – Part One
This children’s rhyme is often associated with a funny figure of a bent and crooked man. Let’s pause and look at this a bit closer. There are often profound teachings we get from children’s books of nursery rhymes, there are sometimes deeper meanings behind the scene....

Does God Punish?- Part One
Jonah 3:1-10; 4:1-10 Does God punish? The question begs an answer which we must thoroughly research. When humans attribute characteristics to God’s person, we tread on sacred and unexplored ground. I say unexplored because which of us could define the infinite...
Speak to the Captain – Part Three
Shortly, I heard voices, and looking up; I saw four uniformed crew members pulling their luggage trolleys. I recognized the captain from his four striped lapels and approached him. I told him my story, explaining that God had said I must speak to him. He told me they...
Speak to the Captain – Part Two
