A daily walk in faith, hope and love
DAY 54 Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: The future you desire is not a gift! When I heard that those words this afternoon, it... Continue Reading →
DAY 53 Matthew 6:1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven. There is something about the human spirit that makes it seek recognition, praise and affirmation at every chance. You might therefore realise that by... Continue Reading →
DAY 52 Sirach 2:1 My son, if you come forward to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for testing To come forward means to advance on one's own volition.

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. Personally, I do not like the cold and so would wish that we skipped that season of the year entirely. My ideal annual cycle would be spring, summer, autumn, then back... Continue Reading →
