Jump

Unrest

The unrest of the weary world is the unvoiced cry for God.

Deliverance

Carol Purves Carol's Blog August 13, 2018

My times are in Your hands, deliver me from the hands of my enemies, from those who persecute me.  Ps 31:15

Teabags

Carol Purves Carol's Blog August 12, 2018

A Christian is like a teabag, not worth much until its been through some hot water.

Opportunity

Carol Purves Carol's Blog August 11, 2018

The reason some people don’t recognise opportunity is because it comes disguised as hard work.

Strength

Carol Purves Carol's Blog August 10, 2018

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall ran and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.  Is 40:31

A man is what he is on his knees before God and nothing more.  Robert Murray M’Cheyne
