I am Not Worthy!

One of the greatest things about my new job is that daily I hear about how God has transformed lives such as stories like Nicks!!. There are many other stories about how God changes lives, Today for example one of my work Colleagues was telling me how God has told him to plant a Church in another area and how he fought it but God insisted!
But sometime this can be a little discouraging,

When I say Discouraging what I mean is that I hear stories like this and my heart leaps at what an awesome God we have, but later I start to think about my life and how I came to know God which is nothing to dramatic really( in comparison!) and I start to think how dull my testimony could be!!

But God Knows different.... HE reminded me of the MANY miracles that I have seen occur in my life, how HE has provided when all hope seemed lost, How HE has provided a Job when I needed one, how HE has healed friends and family, how HE provided a house at the right price, how HE has given me courage to play in front of others, how HE brought me to really know HIM and how unique and exciting it was and how exciting and unique I am to HIM.

How HE died on the cross for my sins.

God rejoices for each person who comes to know him through the cross whether they were a drug dealer, a prostitute, a tax collector, a fisher man a Warehouse man or whatever!
Each story is as exciting and unique as the other one.

So will I be discouraged again................................................I don't think so somehow!!!!!

~God Bless!

Prayer Sandwiches

Our worship recently has become a little.......how can I put this.....
Well what is happening is - we will sing one song then there will be a scripture and prayer then another song and so on and so on.........
Now i have 2 issues with this

1 - Worship should flow naturally and going through the above method does not give it time to flow and therefore there is no flow. Personally I feel stifled and unable to get into worship.
The problem with this is that worship is not just about the songs we sing our how many we sing its about the state of our hearts and our lives. so I know I have to deal with it!!!!

James 5:13 (New International Version)

¹³Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise

2 - The Bible CLEARLY tells us to obey our leaders. If you believe that your leader is truly anointed by God ( And I do!) then you have to believe that when he/ they make changes then they are doing what they believe God is telling them - So I have to Trust.
In my experience the first people to admit a mistake are our Leaders so until then I will have to trust that this is from God and I will have to figure out what God is trying to Teach Me / Us!

Hebrews 13:17 (New International Version)

¹⁷Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.

Sometimes I dont agree with what we are asked to do but will do it anyway, that's part of belonging to the Body of Christ!!

Well I know that everything is in Gods Hands so over to you Lord!

Healing service

On the last Friday of every month the church I go to holds a healing service.
So this Friday is the day!
If you have anyone on your heart you would like me to pray for just leave their name and a will do so!!

Luke 9:10-12 (New International Version)

¹⁰When the apostles returned, they reported to Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida, ¹¹but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing.

New Beginnings

For the Last 16 Months I have been working a job I didn't particularly like or enjoy and like a lot of people felt stuck with no way out, I have even prayed about this, prayed that I could do the job for God and not for me!
Luckily I have been privileged enough to work with some terrific people and made some excellent friends in this Job and will miss them , I wont however miss the company I worked for (enough said!)

From the 2nd of August I will be working for a Christian charity Called "The Message". This is a new beginning not just for me but for my family too. It is not a management role (something I struggled with for the last few years) but is a role which will make a real difference to peoples lives! I will not be on the front lines but what I do will enable those on the front line to carry out their jobs with out worrying about certain things.
My prayer now is that they are blessed by my work and that God is truly honoured.

Kids say the Best things!

Quote of the Day:

Daughter "Daddy, Did Jesus die on the cross for our future and present sins too?"
Daddy: "Yes"

Here it comes.......quote of the day



Daughter " WOW"

My kids never cease to amaze me.
How often do we take it for granted? how many times to we sit back and think about all that the Lord has done and say "WOW" ?


Have you kids come out with any pearls of wisdom?

Pasta necklaces and little red buses -REPOST!

I Have been thinking a lot about this post recently ...so i have decided to re-post it!

Matthew 18:3

And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven".



I have two little girls of whom I am Very proud, not only do I see them as a gift from God, but I have learnt so much from them.

My youngest brought home from school this week a little red bus she had made from a cardboard box and some string. She was so proud of what she had achieved (as was I!!)And couldn't wait to show her daddy what she had done and how it worked. This got me to thinking about my relationship with our Father - strange how our children can do this!!
When I sit down to talk to God is he proud and excited about what I have achieved that day, have I served him well in all I have done, have I done my best? And am I excited to show him what I have done with what he has given me?

She also recently made a necklace from pasta which was at a later date broken. She brought this to me to fix.....and I had to explain to her that I couldn’t fix it.
This was not the first time that one of my little cherubs have brought me something to fix, it sometime seems like a daily occurrence, they Always believe 100% that their daddy can fix anything and I have previously heard my eldest child tell her friends that her daddy can indeed fix anything!!
But time and time again there are things that I can’t fix, but they are never fazed by this or do they ever lose faith that the next time I can!!

There are so many things that we can learn from our children, do I honestly believe that my father can fix anything... he can move mountains, but can he fix my stuff?
The obvious answer is yes, but do I really believe it?
There are times when I have prayed about things and seen the miraculous occur but there have also been times when I have prayed and no answer seems to be forthcoming, there are also times when I have given up.

I have to learn lessons. God puts things before us to learn, he teaches us sometimes in the strangest of ways but He also puts it before us in the simplest of ways!

Matthew 18:3

And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven".
