God help me. I have incorrectly learned that to ask You for help to do Your will is wrong, and that asking You to help me love You more is undeserving of You. I have been taught that my desire for You should supersede my need for You. I understand that this thinking is sinful, [...]

God, help me
November 23, 2009Wait for the Lord
October 10, 2009Omgoodness, patience is not one of the *easier* fruit of the Spirit for this girl. Just today I was worrying about something (well, for a few days now) and as I was jogging (8kms today – woot! woot!) I was *gently* reminded that it wasn’t mine to carry. God is constantly re-reminding me to trust [...]
Freewill Offerings 2.0
October 10, 2009Just reading the Bible this morning and I noticed a theme so I thought I would share. In my on-going study on worship it is my desire to worship God ‘biblically’. As a worship leader it is definitely a hope of mine to lead people in Christ-centred, Biblical worship. Not my own thoughts, but God’s. [...]
baby. steps.
July 15, 2009I’ve recently started running. I started earlier this year but I’ve been increasing more and more. Adding a few more laps every couple of weeks. My goal was being able to run 5K without stopping and I’m [now] doing that several times each week. Some weeks I only do 15K but my [new] goal each [...]
Call. Worship. How?
July 15, 2009Ok, well the verses that follow those at the end of Romans 11 come in … you guessed it, Romans 12, which seem to fall perfectly in line with what I wrote about from Romans 11:33-36. Listen to this:
[Romans 12:1-2] So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary [...]
Call.
July 15, 2009I was reading through the book of Romans last week and I read something that I have probably read a hundred times before but this time when I read it I saw it as a call to worship.
Romans 11:33-36; Have you ever come on anything quite like this extravagant generosity of God, this deep, [...]
Thank.You
June 24, 2009I’m thankful today for the process God allows in us for change. I have discovered that when you want to be a different person, when you see your sin and authentically want God to change you from the inside-out, He does it!
I’m thankful that although I’ve spent most of my life the way I am, [...]
Oh You Bring – Hillsong United
June 24, 2009One of my favs from the new Hillsong United CD, Across the Earth – Tear down the Walls. Sorry nothing to watch here, but the song is great. It’s just a song of worship that expresses the power of God in our lives and our simple response to our very beautiful, [...]
thank.You
June 8, 2009Cliff has been inadvertently teaching me about thankfulness. Everyday his thankfulness abounds. Whatever we are talking about always comes with an attitude of gratefulness. It’s amazing.
Oh, I’m a thankful person. I’m full of gratitude, except there’s always a stipulation. “This is great, but….”, or “Wow, that’s wonderful, but just…”, you know? It’s just not quite [...]
