Nonchalant
Sitting in a local cafe remind myself that part of my deepening in 2019 is to write more. Yet often the words come faster than the ink can flow, so I capture the words in part on my phone. Often they are sleepy as the inpiration unearths itself around midnight and I can’t sleep until they escape my mind. This was one such verse. … Continue reading Nonchalant
Blue
Welcome to Blue Monday I’ve seen a lot today about the dreaded Blue Monday. Contrary to common belief, Blue Monday is not a particularly scientific formulation. It is, I believe, a very clever marketing technique that has created a life of its own and perhaps even become a self fulfilling prophecy. Don’t get me wring, all the ideas that add to it make sense. It … Continue reading Blue
Age of Ultron
There are two main ways in which I am inspired; other than through being around inspiring people. Both paths work hand in hand, I can do one, or other, depending on the mood. Both work in my favour, even when I am not asking them to.

For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” She pauses, are these her … Continue reading Unashamed
Hopes & Fears
This evening, I shall be starting my present wrapping! I love this part of Christmas, remembering what I bought and disguising it with brown paper and ribbon. Earlier today I published a post for my work youth devotional blog on the subject of advent and waiting with hope. Which leads me to my thoughts today remembering of a recent occurrence that strengthened hope in me. … Continue reading Hopes & Fears
Peace
She stands, waiting for dinner to cook. Waiting for the kettle to boil. Usually she’d scroll, but slowly your calling her heart to meditate on better things. Twice today, no three times, you have spoken to her about peace. Four if you count the song aswell. She’ll count the song aswell. Four times you have laid the word upon her heart, reminding her that in … Continue reading Peace
