Today is not called ‘Happy Easter’ it is called ‘Easter’, the ‘Happy’ bit is just a greeting..wishing people to be happy today. I have seen a lovely friend write to please not be wished Happy Easter as 9months ago she lost her precious baby, he so sadly died after bravely battling cancer. He is now […]
I cannot imagine the emotions that went on that day. When people who had loved him now turned and hated him, to the point of death. Where people who had sung his praises now shouted abuse and all kinds of lies spilled out. Where the ones he had loved,healed, walked with, befriended were nowhere to […]
I said in a previous blogpost that as I slowly read through the Easter story (Matt26) and have days of waiting to carry on reading it awakens me to the wait Jesus endured. He knew what was coming, had to wait, feeling sick for it. Trying to tell His friends who just didn’t understand at all! […]
I love the greeting Daniel receives as I’m reading Daniel 10. What a beautiful honour and when I read it today it made me first think.. I wish that was me! I am thankful for the promise that Jesus does love us. It is absolute Truth that it would be said over us too.. So […]
Today’s creative was play play playing with my little Lion all day. He didn’t nap so I didn’t get time to do anything..but who cares. This day is important. Tomorrow is a big day. God had been building… </a He has held every piece, known every bit and where to place it. He has designed […]
Today was going to be baking but instead I had time to paint! Little Lion napped in the afternoon so I got a bit of time..just under an hour..it didn’t feel long! I’m not an artist and so needed help! I watched a simple Acrylic Paint video on YouTube for inspiration. Mine looks nothing like […]
I have been encouraged by a friend to spend the 40days of lent choosing to be creative. I believe this will be a challenge but also freeing. There is creativity in all of us..so sometimes to get the chance to be looking for it is helpful. For me, I can’t sew,knit, draw, paint..I can just […]
God has spoken to me through many storms in life. While I was in a lot of pain, four months after marriage, my new husband having to dress me and do everything for me. God showed me His Kindness as I have shared in blogposts before. He gave me this nugget of Gold. I am […]
Though we struggle and fall and hurt and fail and try again and mess it up and cry and try again and see and risk and hurt and push through and cry for help and try again… We don’t go through it alone. There is one right next to us, capturing it all, never allowing […]
I’ve not posted for a while. I have a lot of ‘saved drafts’ as I have written a lot, just not stuff worth posting! I can’t be fake, I’m not great at small talky chitchat. That’s why I find the starts & ends of church a bit cringe! Oooh but grab a cuppa & sit […]
