Lord, grant me wisdom, and courage, and strength, and the energy to get through each day.
Let me be a blessing.

Three deaths in one week. It’s enough to destroy anyone’s hope in living. Sorrow is completely exhausting and draining.
This whole week I’ve been asking God why love has to hurt so much. Why love inevitably leads to loss, to hurt, to pain. It figures that the best thing in the world [...]

Scenes from the Bible have been imagined by countless artists over the centuries, but never quite like this. God’s Eye View portrays four key Biblical events as if captured by Google Earth.
It’s the work of Sydney-based “creative collective” The Glue Society. The project was commissioned by Eric Romano of Pulse Art, New York for its [...]

Whatever little you have, give it all…it’s never too little for the Lord :) Even the widow gave her two cents to God and it was taken with love…don’t ever think that what you have is too small or not good enough - when you give all you have, it’s big enough and good [...]

I believe you are the answer to every tear I’ve cried
I believe that you are with me,
My rising and my light.
Give me strength when I am weary
Give me hope when I can’t see
Through the crosses I must carry
Lord, bind my heart to thee
That when all my days are over
and all my chores are done,
I [...]

Somewhere in my hall from out my window I can hear a group of people singing “The Potter’s Hand”.
It makes me happy and secure to know that somewhere out there are other people who love and want to worship God. :)
Can’t wait for BS this Friday!

Choir sang this as the anthem in service today, and I love love love this song even though at first I thought it was a bit weird.
The chords are amazing and the ‘alleluia’ part is just so heart-burstingly emotional. Thought evening choir was going to muck this up because we weren’t sounding too confident [...]

About a month or so back, the men’s chorale in choir sang this song called ‘Shine On Us’ for Outreach Sunday. All my life I’ve been used to being in choirs where the women vastly outstrip the men in terms of numbers and talent; especially so in school choirs where somehow only the bravest [...]

Quiet happiness.
Dubious - just a little.
Once bitten twice shy, perhaps.
A catch? Somewhere?
Maybe - maybe not.
Smiles.
Love.
Joy.
Faith.
Hope.
Complete peace.
My hand in God’s - I trust You.
My burdens I give to You.
You take care of them.
I can’t.
The Lord is my shepherd.
I shall not want.

I have been wearing spectacles since I was five years old and in kindergarten.
Eighteen years of wearing glasses, and now I’m free.
I think I might possibly be in love with my Lasik surgeon.
Anyone who wants to do Lasik let me know…I recommend you :) He’s really very very good, everyone in his clinic has fantastic [...]
