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 …

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 …
DEVOTIONAL: New Year, Same God
2024 has well and truly begun. It’s easy to be excited at a new year starting; there is a sense of anticipation the coming year will be better than the year before. Some of us had a great 2023 and some of us were counting down the minutes so we could farewell 2023. Some people …
DEVOTIONS: Still
Still. Something God has been working on teaching me is around the word, still. It has long been a word that I have associated with being still before God; sitting at his feet and waiting on him to speak or move. Being still and trusting that He will do something in the current season. But …
DEVOTIONAL | The sovereignty of God
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9 I’ve been thinking about God’s sovereignty a lot recently.

This might not be a popular statement, but I find it hard to trust God sometimes. And I sometimes find it hard to build up the courage to do what He is asking me to do. As believers, we are to trust God and show courage in the face of hard decisions and situations. Easier …
DEVOTIONAL: God sees it.
Does he who fashioned the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see? Does he who disciplines nations not punish? Does he who teaches mankind lack knowledge? The Lord knows all human plans; he knows that they are futile – Psalm 94:9-11 God sees it and gets it. There are many comforting …
DEVOTIONAL: He weeps with us.
The other day I woke up with a song in my head. I don’t often wake up with songs playing in my mind, but the song Weep With Me by Rend Collective was playing on repeat. It’s a beautiful song, one that asks questions of God whilst also praising Him for His goodness. It’s a song …
DEVOTIONAL: Who will you serve today?
“And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the Rover, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” – …
DEVOTIONAL: Dwelling in the shelter of the Most High
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will …
