My Thoughts on Life and Faith: in poetry and in prose

    Waiting

    Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. (Psa. 27:14, NIV) I don’t like waiting. Whether for a divine promise or a human verdict, I like to see or experience the things I am expecting as soon as I am aware they are on the way. Waiting often feels […]

    Travel Light

    Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us (Hebrews 12:1, NKJV) Compliments of the season to you! I hope your Christmas was truly merry, filled with love […]

    Jesus rose from the dead. He is Lord. To believe and confess these two statements means that you have been confronted with the truth of the gospel – that you have accepted your need for a Saviour and accepted the Saviour who was offered.

    Genesis 3: Thoughts on the Fall

    This morning, I read chapter 3 of the biblical book of Genesis as part of my daily devotion.
