A daily walk in faith, hope and love
DAY 48 A brief extract from one commentary about today's text read "Whatever the occasion, we aspire to be at the top of the pack, looked up to by the masses".One might think this relates to the attainment of mastery, but it is far from it. Instead of a rise to the top being driven... Continue Reading →
DAY 47 We always seem to want more from everything: more from life, more from others, and more from God. More strength, more grace, more favour, more anointing and more love. More appears to be better than what we already have isn't it? Yet, it is fascinating that while God delivers to Noah the same... Continue Reading →
DAY 46 Genesis 8:22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

DAY 42/365 Everyday presents an opportunity to learn new things even about the things we think we know much about.

However hard you try, unless you ask, that body of knowledge might never come to... Continue Reading →
DAY 41 Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more cunning than any animal of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’? What the word of God can do is not only dependent on the... Continue Reading →
DAY 40 Mark 7:24 Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. In the Gospel today, Jesus entered town and wanted to slip under the radar. But as we read, it was... Continue Reading →
