A friend reminded me of something this week. They sent me a little message to share where they were at in their journey with the Lord, and the Lord caused me to remember. I was walking back to my car at the end of nightshift when I read the message. As I placed the keys … More The Greater Battle
Driving home from church one Sunday, my sister and I discussed an interesting topic. In essence, it was about what stories and marvels captivate our attention. What kind of hero is the world attracted to? We have so much adventure in our world – a myriad of skills, hobbies, workplaces, challenges, travels and more. Out … More Hero Beyond Recognition
Why is the world so discontented? Wants and wills dance around the disquieted souls of the living. The rich want to be poor, the poor want to be rich. The old want to be young, and the young want to grow up. The one with a child wants none, and the one without mourns her … More Contentment: Embracing our Lot

One thing God has emphasised lately, is how much He loves His Bride. If Jesus loves His Bride, the church, and I love Jesus, then I have to love the church as well. At a wedding, the guests celebrate the couple’s union. It is so wonderful to watch how the groom loves his bride, protects … More Image of the Church P3: The Radiant Bride
The lens passed over word and type, A wave of big and small. Excited now, the smallest fought, To gain perspective tall. The “T”s on tiptoe, “J”s down low, The “W”s spread their arms.

The room was dark, yet familiar, and a heavy smell of loneliness soaked its marbled floor. In the corner, a young woman contemplated her adversary. Darkness – but where was light?
