I am not sure how many of us would be able to claim that we always have pure motives for doing good things.  A pure motive would mean that our actions are carried out with the right intentions and for the right reasons.  So often we do things that look good but we do themContinue reading “Motives”

Christians are often portrayed on Tv and in movies as being weak, meek, old, nerds or geeks.  When was the last time you saw a Christian portrayed as confident, compassionate, clever and constrained.  Whether you realise it or not being a follower of Jesus is probably the toughest, hardest and most difficult thing you canContinue reading “How hard is it?”

If you haven’t got it, you want it. If you do have it, it’s never enough. If you don’t have it, you can’t do much. If you have some, it’s better than none but we can always do with more. If you have lots of it you use it up pretty quickly.  Money.   ItContinue reading “Money, money, money”

The cover of darkness, the secrecy of closed doors and the hiding away of incriminating evidence all point to suspicious, devious and dishonest deeds.  Even though it seems there are now more brazen activities occurring during the day, darkness in many places brings with it an increase in fear because underhanded and criminal activity usesContinue reading “Exposure”

Nobody really likes to be told they are wrong or what they have done is bad.  We all like to believe that what we think and what we do is entirely our choice.  When it comes to others there is the perception that if they are not hurting anyone else then it shouldn’t really matterContinue reading “Sin”

Just imagine for a a moment if you were completly free to live out your first response.  Your first response to someone who cuts in front of you in a queue and you miss out on ticket to the big event.  Your first response when you think you have been lied to, cheated on orContinue reading “First response”

One of the things that is difficult to explain about being a Jesus follower is that overwhelming, life changing and all encompassing sensation that occurred when we first handed our whole life over to him.  At the same time we wondered what it was but were also bewildered how we lived without it.  There isContinue reading “What’s in us.”

I think all of us have a natural tendency and desire to hit back, fight back, seek revenge or at the very least cut out of our life and simply ignore those who hurt or hate us.  There are many who portray God that way as well, as angry, people hating, vengeful and distant.  However,Continue reading “Enemies”
