Has the Temple of your Heart Become a Marketplace.
The story of Jesus entering the temple and finding it turned into a marketplace is a powerful moment that challenges us deeply. Instead of a place of prayer and reverence, the temple had become a den of thieves. This scene invites us to ask a difficult question: Has the temple of your heart become a marketplace? This question echoes through the ages, asking us to examine what fills our inner lives. Are we nurturing a sacred space, or have we allowed distractions and false va

Understanding
I was just reading about when Jesus was transfigured on the mount and the disciples' reaction. And it occurred to me that they were completely and utterly out of their zone of understanding. It was a step change so far above what they could believe or see or expect that all they could do was fall back to what they knew. So, they saw Jesus. They saw him transfigured. They saw his being glowing and turn to white. But they also saw Elijah and Moses, and their initial reaction wa

Meant for Something More
Do you ever think and you ever feel like the world is moving around you, passing by you, and there's something deep in your soul and deep in your heart that just tells you, you were made for something more? You were made for something better, that you were made to fulfill some great purpose. Well, you're not alone. I think most people feel that urge. It's very personal when it comes to us, and we can either listen to it or we can ignore it. But nevertheless, that urge, that h

Grace, a modern psalm.
I watch the world parade around me, seemingly ignorant of my pain.

Patience of a saint.
I love this phrase, because it puts patience on the side of the angels. And so it should. As patience is our unbidden friend and waits with us for the appearance of something yet hidden. It’s character is one of quite certainty and calm expectation. It sits with us as we wait, and if we bend to listen often speaks to us. To reveal things we never dared dream or hoped for. Thus in the waiting, it becomes our teacher. But here’s the thing, we can also loose it. A bit like you c

Racing
Some days, the race is hard on us. And we barely crawl across its finish line at days end. But, here is the truth. We do finish the race, having fought for the good. Knowing that we have kept believing, even in the face of adversity and sometimes pain. Knowing that tomorrow, next week, next year we will race again. To fight, not just for ourselves but for our loved ones and our neighbours. And for those that cannot fight. This then, makes every one of us victors and heroes.

Before the Beginning
Standing above the earth, the kingdom was an impenetrable island protected on all sides by sheer cliffs. And here, with his back toward the cliffs, the prince royal stood, surveying his father’s land. For over thirty years he had been away, and those years had changed him. For the better, he thought. But the journey had been difficult and the scars he bore were testament to the fact.

The other day my youngest son and I were searching through his bedroom cupboards when right at the bottom of one of them underneath a sea of Leggo and rubber dinosaurs we found an old metal detector.
