How many time have you offered prayer to someone, but as soon as the person turned their back you have forgotten your promise? Prayer gives hope to someone who feels all is lost. One don’t always realize this. When I was about 13 years of age, I had my appendix removed. It was awfully painful.Continue reading “Offering Prayer”

What does it mean to be children of God? A few years ago I walked my son to school. What I noticed was the fear in the eyes of children I would pass, till they’ve learned that I’m Zach’s mum. They would greet me back and I could warn them about troubles ahead. Being aContinue reading “Children of God”

Today, a year ago I had this dream: I was at an adventure park, booking a place for me and my family for I guess my birthday party. This place won’t be on my list of party venues. It was like rocket ropes, but not. It was muddy and dirty. What made it worst wasContinue reading “Eleventh Hour”

Last year we went to Palmerston North for part of a course I was doing. At the botanical gardens we had the opportunity to ride on a train made by Kiwi rail in 1975.

Jesus is the good wine. In John 2:6-10, Jesus turned water into wine. Wine that the head of the ceremony called to be good wine. I often wondered why was the first miracle turning water into wine. Jesus knew people had a need of being cleansed. He offered them that cleansing without them realising whatContinue reading “Good Wine.”

God has chosen us! He has set us apart, declaring us the apple of His eye! Why then do we act as if He turned away from us? The world may believe that only science are the solution to our problems today. But only God can see the big picture. We don’t need healing onContinue reading “Set apart.”
