Weariness
Many well known sayings come from Bible verses such as ‘you reap what you sow’ which comes from Jesus’ words… ‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth toContinue reading “Weariness”
When the Burden Feels too Heavy
There’s verses you feel as though you’ve known all your life then you read them again and God shows you something new: don’t you just love that?!

Encouragement in the waiting…
However old we are waiting is hard and waiting patiently is even harder! I wonder how many of us have prayers that we’re still waiting for the answers to? But we’re not the only ones waiting… ‘therefore will the LORD wait…’ When our prayers aren’t answered straight away God is waiting too! He’s waiting forContinue reading “Encouragement in the waiting…”
They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength
As I stood looking out at the pink tinged clouds yesterday morning while thinking about God’s faithfulness, I spotted a cloud that looked a bit like an eagle and it reminded me of these words… ‘they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shallContinue reading “They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength”
Perfect Peace in Christ
Peace, perfect peace! Isn’t it what, in some way or other we all are striving for? Is it possible? Yes! ‘Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.’ Who will be kept in perfect peace? The one whose mind is stayed on God, resting andContinue reading “Perfect Peace in Christ”
Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away…
