What I’ve learned about the body of Christ through Swimming

What I’ve learned about the body of Christ through Swimming

I recently took up swimming again. It has been about fifteen years since I last swam laps as a form of recreation for fitness and enjoyment. As I was walking Rocky this morning, I became aware of how different my body feels after less than a week of swimming. Even though I am not toned or fit, my body feels like it has sprung into life after fifteen years of hibernation!  As I walked, I could feel muscles all over that…

Are You Free To Sing?

Are You Free To Sing?

Before I share my post with you today, apologies and giggles if you received an email of my last post with a photo of Derek on it! I hope that didn’t confuse you too much.  Hopefully, that is all fixed up now, and although I think he’s very handsome, I don’t really want his face on my posts! lol. Now to the post….. Did you know you can sing whatever words you want to any song? Some Christians might think…

My Updated Site and How To Overcome Language Barriers

Welcome back to my updated site! Thank you for your patience in waiting for the new site to come up, I really appreciate it.  It was off line for quite a few weeks and I’m still working on a few things but I’ve made it across to Bluehost and although it certainly hasn’t been a cut and dry process, we’re here. Safe and sound. There’re still a few more tweaks for me to work on over the coming weeks so…

Christ Our All

Christ Our All

Well folks, it’s been a few weeks since I posted a blog. That’s because Derek and I have been packing, packing, selling, cleaning, moving out, moving my mother, visiting family, and more packing! We have moved out of our rental house, we’ve moved mum to my sister’s place into a new little portable granny flat which she is renting, and Derek and I have been sleeping at my sister’s place for a week, with Rocky the shitzu of-course! Tomorrow we head off…

What I Didn’t Know About Body-Life

What I Didn’t Know About Body-Life

Body-life. What the heck is that? I’m pretty new to true body life and have only been experiencing it for four years with a very small body of saints. That is between 3 and 7 of us, over those four years. And so this post might be of more value to those of you who perhaps are not yet able to be part of a larger body of believers. Perhaps you only meet with one to six or so other…

Who Is The Temple Of The Lord?

Who Is The Temple Of The Lord?

…One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in His temple…(Ps 27:4) …Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ himself as the chief cornerstone….

The Promise of Compensations and Persecutions

The Promise of Compensations and Persecutions

A really vital truth and reminder of that truth……please read on… By T. Austin-Sparks from: God’s Supreme Interest in Man – Chapter 3  Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. (Colossians 3:9,10 NIV) Christ Himself, when He was here, never failed to let people know that when they entered that door, or…

“If I Were a Christian Now” – A Cry From The Old Testament Believers

“If I Were a Christian Now” – A Cry From The Old Testament Believers

When I first published this post, it was related to a video I came across on Facebook. Unfortunately, the video has now been removed so I can no longer share it here. To briefly summarise in order to make sense of the below post (published in 2015), it was a clip of women of all ages, body shapes and with grey hair. They were all talking directly into the camera about learning to embrace their age and learning to let…

I Do

I Do

A most excellent shadow and type of Christ the Bridegroom and His Church, His Bride, is seen in the traditional Jewish wedding of Jesus’ day when He was on earth. It is full of shadows and types that move me to tears. For instance, just like in the West today, the chosen bride in ancient Jewish times always had a choice.  She, like us, could reject the proposal. This is seen in the case of Rebekah in Genesis 24:57-58. When…
