Do not the mountains praise Him when the woods upon their summits wave in adoration? Does not the lightning write His name in letters of fire? Has not the whole earth a voice? And shall I, can I, silent be? Charles Spurgeon Think of your favourite song. Think of its melody and harmony; the tuneContinue reading “Creation’s Song”

A YouTuber I follow recently posted a video explaining why he would not be posting content for a while. His father has unexpectedly died and, understandably, his death had left the family shaken and heart-broken. He closed the video by saying he had always anticipated that the death of a close family member or lovedContinue reading “The Sting of Death”

Life can be heavy. It can be wearisome. The author of Ecclesiastes captures this weariness perfectly. He paints a bleak picture of life’s repetitiveness. Men and women work hard to sustain daily living, only to wake up to a new day and begin it all again. In the seemingly never ending circle of mundaneness, theContinue reading “To Step And Step And Step”

They draw their swords, ready to end this man’s life. Their single thought is to see how much harm they can cause this man- how muchContinue reading “Resolved: To Stand, To Fight, To Live”

Goodbyes are hard. They are usually filled with joy and sorrow, with bitter-sweet moments mixed with the anticipation of seeing that person again.

These goodbyesContinue reading “The Last Noël”
