The Word by Sara Groves I’ve done every devotional Been every place emotional Trying to hear a new word from God And I think it’s very odd, that while I attempt to help myself My Bible sits upon my shelf With every promise I could ever need Chorus: And the Word was And the Word [...]

Heaven’s Grocery Store I was walking down life’s highway a long time ago. One day I saw a sign that read “Heaven’s Grocery Store”. As I got a little closer, the door came open wide. When I came to myself, I was standing just inside. I saw a host of angels. They were standing everywhere. [...]

Today at work I realised I was 8 weeks behind in my timsheets – Oops! Mind you as well as noticing this I also realised that the “timesheet police” haven’t been after me yet, which is most unusual – They usually descend on you if you get more than a few weeks behind. So having [...]

Who is this man who can change the wind? Who is this man who can perform miracles? Who is this man who can walk on water? Whose love was so great that he died for us? Who is this man? Who is this man? Who is this man? Who is this man who makes the [...]
Roses and Thorns

Some people don’t like roses because they find the thorns a nuisance because they are sharp and get in the way when you try to handle them. To me these folk are just not looking past the jagged/rough edges, so are failing to see and appreciate the beauty of a rose in full bloom. Roses [...]

I was watching Mock The Week last night on BBC2 and one of the things said really got to me – During one of the rounds Ed Byrne retold a story of finding a stray cat beside their dustbins. They then took the cat into their home to feed it, look after it and become part of [...]

Colossians 4:2-6 (NIV) Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. Be wise in the way [...]
