THE ULTIMATE GOAL
The Ultimate Goal. Food for thought: what really is your ultimate goal. I remember when I was younger, I used to have bible study with a large group of people. On particular occasions the preacher taught on Salvation and living a God-focused life. These sermons really worked wonders. Most of us always changed our “ways” ; there was a difference;

Recession and the God of Abundance Matthew 6:25-34. In the novel “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” by Douglas Adams, one of the reasons the “Hitchhiker’s Guide” referred to in the text is so useful a book is because it has inscribed on its cover in large letters the words “DON’T PANIC.” It seems to me that these words are

THE NEXT LEVEL The very best tests are the ones we pass at the first sitting. I say this because if we fail to pass we must repeat the test and I believe nobody likes to repeat a test. Now LIFE is a school and we must take tests in order to move on to the next level of anything-

WHEN GOD REMEMBERS. ……… What happens when God remembers you? But then again, can He actually ever forget you? “Can a woman forget her suckling child,………….yea, they may forget yet will I not forget thee; Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands…………..” Isaiah 49:15-16 KJV Sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we think that perhaps

DON’T BE GUILTY OF EVIL Their fathers had done evil in the sight of the Lord. And the wrath of the Lord was heavily upon them. So much so that He delivered them to trouble; And made them an object of ridicule. 2 Chronicles 29: 6 But what was their wrong? What evil had they done? “Also they have shut

The Lord Be With You This is more than a Eucharistic prayer. It’s certainly more than what you find in the book of common prayer. How do I know? I checked with Joe Jacobs…………Remember him? The favorite son of Jacob, son of Isaac, son of Abraham The one with the coat of many colours……Yes! Joseph, that’s the one! And here

GO FOR GOLD!!! Wayde van Niekerk, 24 year old South African athlete made history on Sunday night ( 14/08/2016) at RIO 2016 when he won a gold medal at the 400 metres race and broke a 17 year old record in men’s track and field which had been set by the American, Michael Johnson in 1999. But guess what the

A Purpose Driven Life. We often hear the saying “everything happens for a reason.” Some of us believe it and some don’t. I usually believe it with conditions. For example when something does not go in accordance with a plan I may have had in my mind, I then go on to console myself with, “everything happens for a reason”.

FAITH THAT BELIEVES I hear the Lord speak And it’s very profound. “He was greatly surprised because the people did not have faith”………. Mark 6:6 (Goodnews) I find it strange that Jesus is surprised at our lack of faith. Luke 18:1-8 tells us the parable of the widow who kept going to the ‘unjust judge‘ to avenge her of her

GUARANTEED BLISS Not too many of us have taken time to break down the content of Psalm 23 which guarantees hope, encouragement and solace in the face of life’s greatest challenges, including death. King David, himself a former shepherd, begins this Psalm with, “The LORD is my shepherd,” immediately putting himself as a sheep (metaphorically) in the care of Jesus
