Yesterday in Valued? I asked whether you feel valued or not. Today’s question is about whether you feel needed or not…they sound kind of similar but do they actually mean different things? Yes they do, here’s the dictionary definition of each word: Valued – highly regarded Needed – necessary, required Do you see the difference? [...]

He Lives

It’s all Because He Lives… I said it before, but I make no apology for repeating myself…if Christ hadn’t died on the cross and then risen from the dead, we wouldn’t celebrate Easter…and in fact would Christianity even be what it is today? Thank goodness for that very first Easter! Thank you God for sacrificing [...]
Emptiness

Emptiness…that’s a horrible, lonely and depressing word isn’t it. That’s why when we talk about an empty cross, an empty tomb at Easter time, it always seems slightly contradicting to be celebrating that emptiness. However for once, emptiness is a positive thing to be celebrating as without the emptiness of Christ‘s cross and the emptiness of His [...]

Good Friday…why do we call today “good” Friday, when on this day we remember the pain and the agony Christ suffered for us when He died on a cross. It’s a fabulous Friday simply because of that pain and agony Christ suffered for us when He died on a cross. After all, as I’ve said [...]

I don’t know what your life is like or how you feel on a daily basis, but for me, life can be a bit of a struggle physically and emotionally a lot of the time. In fact, I’d go as far as saying that over the last few years I’ve sometimes considered life to be [...]

Next weekend is Easter when I’m sure many of you will be enjoying the odd Easter egg. But have you noticed how as soon as Christmas is over these days the shops seem to start trying to get us to buy Easter eggs? Do they think we’re going to buy Easter eggs in January, eat [...]

The last few days I’ve been talking about friendship, and some of the qualities we find when we have Jesus as our friend. Having now considered what we get when we accept Jesus as our friend, would it surprise you if I say Jesus was my forever friend. Romans 5:11 (The Message) Now that we [...]
