I’ve seen You move, You move the mountains
And I believe, I’ll see You do it again

Come on folks… those words! Continue reading Do It Again
I have not been in the mood to write for what seems like forever, which is ironic because writing, for me is an opportunity to release some of the hurt, frustrations etc that I have internalised and stewed over day after day.

I got out of bed over an hour ago. Binge watched NCIS from 6:30am, was in and out of sleep until I got up. Continue reading Getting out of bed
I am in a crisis.
A number of things in my life look dead and hopeless. My lake seems to be filled with rotten fish at the moment.
My family – rotten tilapia.
My job search – rotten tuna.
My relationships – semi-rotting sardines. Continue reading Why Can’t I Trust Jesus?
