At the start of this year, I shared with you my aims for this year (Welcome to 2012) – not my new year resolutions, but what I aim to achieve this year. Then at the end of both January and February, I gave you a monthly update on how I was doing. So now it’s [...]

One of the saddest things I ever heard was the very first time, probably just over a year ago, when my Dad asked me who I was. For those of you who’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ll know that my Dad suffers from vascular dementia, and has over the space of the [...]

If Jesus were to come back to earth today, would you be ready? Would you be ready, not just to welcome Him, but be ready to give your life for Him? We don’t know when Christ will return to earth, and we don’t know when He will call us home, but we do know that [...]

To celebrate Christ, and to acknowledge our love for Him, what should we do? We must pray, read our bible, and worship Him! It cost Christ his life when He came to earth, just so we could lead the kind of life we are able to lead today. We must give thanks to Him for [...]

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 [...]

No I haven’t got the year wrong, I meant to give this a ten-year-old title! Why? Because Easter weekend 10 years ago marked the start of a new era in my Christian journey. Easter 2002 was the first weekend that I no long attended Rutherglen Salvation Army, but Bellshill corps instead. I’d been attending evening [...]
