Lily's World

Me: How was your day, Lily?
Lily: Good. We saw the Easter Bunny at the library.
Me: Wow!
Lily: But it was somebody dressed up. Maybe it was Santa or something.

The Perks of Unemployment

At the moment, I'm out of a ministry job, seeing as my last position finished up at the end of January. It's very sad, not having our own church family to be a part of. Thanks to our wonderful friends and family for being our Church in the meantime! We're so blessed to have you all.

I've been working on some songs lately, while I have a little time between jobs, and I'll put them up as soon as they're a little ready. Keep an eye out, then when they're up, have a listen and let me know what you think!

I'm also writing this so that hopefully it will motivate me to actually finish them. Some of these have been sitting around for months, maybe years....

On another note, I did manage to read through the Bible in the last year. It was actually a lot easier than I expected - only about 10-15min a day, thanks to the NLT One-Year Bible. I've never read so much of the Bible, so consistently, in my life, and it's been so good for my spiritual growth that I'm going to continue through this year too.

Regular Worship

Numbers 28.


The Israelites were required to bring something to offer God so regularly. How often do I do that?

Lily's World

Lily was doing some drawing....

Lily: Look Daddy! It's a sun!
Me: Wow! It looks like a bird.
Lily: No, it's a sun.... It's a different kind of sun.
Me: Is it a bird-shaped-sun?
Lily: Yeah, it's a bird-sun.

Lily's World

I was getting Lily and Isla's breakfast ready....

Lily: Daddy, I'm just holding the milk for you.
Me: OK honey.
Lily: Did you say "ok" or "no-k"?

Daniel's Prayer

"O our God, hear your servant's prayer! Listen as I plead. For your sake, Lord, smile again on your desolate sanctuary.
"O my God, lean down and listen to me. Open your eyes and see our despair. See how your city - the city that bears your name - lies in ruins. We make this plea, not because we deserve help, but because of your mercy.
"O Lord, hear. O Lord, forgive. O Lord, listen and act! For your own sake, do not delay, O my God, for your people and your city bear your name."
Daniel 9:17-19.

I was praying that for the Church.
