Everything's Good
When you gaze life through the lens of God’s love you’ll start to see the things the way you couldn’t see with a natural eye. For example, you’ll appreciate that everything happens in God’s discretion. Since a loving God can never allow a bad thing into existence you’ll also start to see everything arround youContinue reading “Everything's Good”
Learning How to Surf
Jon Kabat-Zinn is a US stress expert. One of his (and my own) favourite mantra is this: ‘You can’t stop the waves, but you can learn how to surf”. How true this is…. we can’t stop the turbulent waves in our lives but we can always forge an attitude that will help us navigate throughContinue reading “Learning How to Surf”
Priceless Nevertheless
A painting by Pablo Picasso recently set a new world record for the most expensive artwork to be sold at auction after selling for $179m (£115m) in New York. It has been said beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I don’t know about you, but my eyes certainly can’t see a bit ofContinue reading “Priceless Nevertheless”

People hate to see religious individuals living in denial – publicly professing to be flawless but secretly struggling more or less like everybody else. Continue reading “We all need grace”
The Even-If-Believers
Nebuchadnezzar, one of the most powerful Kings of the day, built a giant gold statue and ordered every one to fall to their knees and worship it. Anyone who would not kneel and worship was to be thrown immediately into a roaring furnace. Everyone—every race, color, and creed—fell to their knees and worshiped the goldContinue reading “The Even-If-Believers”

Life As Love Drama
Life is a divine love drama that runs beyond this present life. God being the script writter, the Holly Spirit the producer/director and all of us as actors , this love story is bound to have a very happy ending. So don’t take life and yourself too seriously – instead, relax and enjoy your scriptedContinue reading “Life As Love Drama”
Integrity
Integrity is behaving in the dark, in secret, in a way you’ll not be ashamed when your behaviour finally comes out in the public light. Morality may consist solely in the courage of making a choice. Wickedness is always easier than virtue, for it takes a short cut to everything. But over time you learn,Continue reading “Integrity”
