Wait for the Lord

Omgoodness, 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

Just 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. [...]

Call. Worship. How?

Ok, 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.

I 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, [...]

Oh You Bring – Hillsong United

One 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, [...]

worship + justice

thank.You

Cliff 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 [...]

my dreams

I was out with some girlfriends last night and I just happened to mention how as a girl I never really dreamt of the whole wedding thing. I never thought about getting married until it happened. I never really thought about having kids until it happened.
I can honestly tell you today that I am [...]

Some good news…

Come and listen, all you who fear God. Let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. But God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer. [...]

7 days to live…

“What would you do differently if you only had 7 days left to live?” That was the question that I was asked earlier this week. I had no idea how to answer it and all week long I pondered it.
Gosh, 7 days left to live – I knew my answer should have been extravagant, elaborate [...]
