Creating ‘spaces’ to experience the presence of God

God is better at being who He is, rather than who we tell Him to be.

Perspective

February 27th, 2012

Do you believe God’s perspective is different to ours? I know He doesn’t doubt what He has said to us, or doubt that He will do what He has said. He doesn’t even have a problem with His perfect timing! Yes I think it is quite different.

Church growth

February 23rd, 2012

“There is no church growth without souls being saved”. Paul Mainwarring.

Christianity is primarily about God and what He does not about us and what we do.

Vision

February 23rd, 2012

What is your vision for you personally? Can you write it out? Or articulate it? If not drop everything dream with God and re find it. Then put your life’s efforts into this.

Faith

February 14th, 2012

I have more Faith in The Holy Spirits ability to get a message through to me than I do in the devils ability to muck it up. He (HS) speaks perfectly, I hear imperfectly but He gives me enough to move forward in Faith.

Enter Worship

February 10th, 2012

If you enter Worship with your heart set on what you want to get from God instead of giving yourself to God, then you are still worshipping its just that you arn’t worshipping God.

Let all that I am praise the LORD

February 9th, 2012

Let all that I am praise the LORD;
with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Let all that I am praise the LORD;
may I never forget the good things he does for me. He forgives all my sins
and heals all my diseases. Psalm 103:1 NLT

People don’t care what you know until they know that you care.

Fatherhood tips

February 5th, 2012

Fatherhood tips – Notes from a course I did years ago.

Your measurement is not how much quality or quantity time.
It is do they trust you, are you safe.
Respect their private world.
Only go there when you are invited.
When you are invited in don’t go and rearrange everthing. Don’t fix it. This is a time to listen.
Give your children the permission to fail.-Otherwise they may not attempt anything.
Be writing little encouraging, I love you notes. In lunchbox.
Give your child the opportunity to prove themselves.
guard your tone and toungue. Make sure you notice the level of excitement on their face. ie Don’t squash them.

Your childs greatest need is to be touched and held by Dad. Dads arms are security.
The message they need to receive is No matter what life brings, Dad will be there to hold them and to listen and to be there for them.

Have Faith for change. Things do not always stay the same. God IS Good, all of the time.

January 31st, 2012

We have rejected all labouring and discipline in the Spirit, the thought now is that grace is free and doesn’t require anything from us. Thoughts from a Coptic priest.

Busy ~ Intimacy

January 31st, 2012

‘When we share how busy we are and how our intimacy and prayer are struggling we get compassion agreement & understanding, the early church fathers would have pulled a servant out of ministry and sent them into seclusion to restore his times with the Lord.’ Thoughts from a Coptic Priest.

January 26th, 2012
