    Let's Be Spiritually Fit !

     | 3,125 views

    A short homily for some elderly Christians living in sheltered accomodation. I don’t think I took on board the right amount of spiritual food over the Christmas and New Year period. God is challenging me (and perhaps you!) to be spiritually fit.

    A lot can happen in a year! A lot can and will happen during this next year. As I look back over the last year I realise that so much has happened and so much has changed: †My two boys have started new schools. †My daughter has begun pre-school. †My sister got married. †My Granddad died. †My ...read more

    When we shrink God’s holiness we have no standard to live by

    How we have made God a shrinking reality DON’T BE AFRAID! Have you ever wondered which hurts the most? Saying something and wishing you hadn’t? or Saying nothing and wishing you had?
