We recently started doing a series at our church called ‘Who Told You That?’ and we’re looking at some of the misconceptions we have about God and the Bible. It’s been an interesting series to prepare for as it’s made me look at some of my beliefs and ask myself where that belief started. The …

DEVOTIONS: Remembering Jesus is our reason for the season
Today we are reposting a Christmas devotion from 2019. Just as relevant today as when it was first posted. And just like that, Christmas is only a few sleeps away. Christmas trees are flickering their bright lights. Tinsel is hung up all over the place and all the old family recipes are being retrieved from drawers …

DEVOTIONAL | Now to Him Who is Able
One of my favourite verses in the Bible is Ephesians 3:20: Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us. It’s a verse that is very personal and dear to me. And one that I have recited and …
DEVOTIONAL: Sing, my soul!
I came across a song the other day called Sing Of This by Bethel Music. It’s an upbeat, faith song that encourages us to sing of who God is in our lives. Like many others, I can forget what I had for breakfast yesterday but can belt out a 90’s song at the top of …

DEVOTIONAL: He Delights in You
The other day as I was sitting at the kitchen counter, my little one starting dancing around the house. At 2.5 years old, she’s bursting with energy and doesn’t need music to break out her little dance moves. And every time she does, it just makes my heart smile. No matter what day I am …
DEVOTIONAL: Proclaim His Wonderous Works
We are doing a series at church on the book of ACTS, and I have found myself stuck in chapter two. On the day of Pentecost, with all the believers gathered in one room waiting, the Holy Spirit come upon them all and they all started speaking in other tongues. The bible tells us that …
DEVOTIONAL: He Is Still Worthy
Still Worthy Those that have been reading my blogs for while know that one of the ways that I connect with God is through music. Music is one of the few things that can still my mind. Worship music especially, can just centre my mind on Jesus and block everything else out. So I’m constantly …
DEVOTIONAL: Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
There is an old hymn called “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus”. It’s a well-known hymn with some beautiful lyrics in it. The first verse caught my attention and I found myself stuck on it. Now one thing many people don’t know about me is that I love to know the story behind the songs I …
DEVOTIONAL: Then Jesus
It was a dark and spooky night… I’m a visual person. I like to see things in front of me and I like to have little notes or signs to remind me of things. On my desk, I like to have pot-it notes and little signs to remind me of things and encourage me. One …
