Never early, Never Late
“You are never early, never late…You sent your Son in the fullness of time and will return at the consumption of time. Your plan is perfect. Bewildering. Puzzling. Troubling. But Perfect”
I read this early today. It’s an excerpt from “A Prayer for a Friend”, and I thought it was perfectly timed. 2 nights ago I received an SOS from a good friend. This friend was...

Boast of our affliction. What a funny thing to say. When we are afflicted, with suffering, death, disorders, loss of relationship, mental illness, physical illness, the last thing we want to do is go out and boast about it. Why does God let bad things happen to His people? One...

We were chatting yesterday about how some people get so consumed and caught up in relationships, that they lose themselves. After which, she posted this quote to FB. Not sure where she got it from, but I love it, so I thought I would post it here.

God knows my name
I received a small reward at work the other day, not much, simply some recognition for a job well done. The reward was a certificate of achievement kind of thing, and the certificate had my name on it. Also, my name was spoken and some of the senior management heard it. I consider myself to be a pretty humble man, so I tend to get uncomfortable with these things, but it also makes me feel good...

“Anyone having troubles should pray” James 5:13
Before you go anywhere else with your troubles, go to God. Maybe you don’t want to trouble God with your hurts. After all He’s got famines, pestilence and war; He won’t care about your struggles, you might think. I know I have at times. He cared enough about a wedding to provide the wine. He...

Sometimes I feel more like Peter, just after Jesus got arrested, instead of Peter the Rock of the church. Surrounded by non-christians, it’s difficult to take a stand. I don’t deny that I know Christ, but there are times I don’t say anything, which might as well be the same thing. I need to remember that God saved me, and I need to praise him at all costs. “God, I must keep...

For what you think is an unanswered prayer may really be God’s answer. Take a closer and deeper look. He actually heard and answered you.
YES!!! I truly believe God answers all prayers…it may be a Yes, it may be a no, it may be a wait and see…but he answer them all. Can you imagine the outcome if a parent honored each request of a child made during a trip? We’d have...

So, I woke up with the thought of Hebrews 4:16 on my mind. Not sure why just yet, so I immediately opened my bible and this was the verse. Pretty cool. “Let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God” Lord, help me to not be afraid. Give me the courage and strength...

I think it’s the moment where I was saved.
Now, those of you who know me know that my story is long and complicated.
I was a christian who was failing, I was suicidal. And this moment occurs about a month after I’d been living at the House of Hope.
I was on the floor, in the lounge room,…

– Psalm 30 This is pretty cool. In my experience, as the darkness of night closes in, any pain or strife, seems to be magnified, but over the years, I’ve learned to wait. Wait for the morning, because the light smashes the darkness and provides hope.
