“What is Truth?” asked Pilate. And there standing before him stood Jesus; ”the way the truth and the life” (John 14:6). What did the Jews choose to do with the Truth standing in front of them? “Crucify Him!” they shouted (Matthew 27:22). Sadly, most of the world today also choose to crucify truth to satisfy… Continue reading Joh 14v16-17 – Killing Truth
We were visiting Etosha Game Reserve in Namibia. My daughter’s boyfriend had never seen a lion in the wild. I prayed to God that if it was his will, could he please lead us to see a lion. We were on our final day, heading toward the gate, and we still hadn’t seen any lions.… Continue reading Luk 11v13 – Answered prayer
We are standing looking at a waterfall plummeting into a deep dark pool. The timing is such that the sun is just dipping behind the mountain behind the waterfall, causing the bright light to shine directly into our eyes. While we have been to this waterfall many times before, today we notice something else –… Continue reading Eph 1v18 – Light in my eyes
Home – it’s a place we desire to live with loved ones in joy and peace. It’s God’s design.

The first was the fantastic condition of… Continue reading 1Co 3v16 – The motor museum
“Hey Siri, please call my friend Pierre” “Sure,” the clever AI app replies, “calling your friend beer”. “No, not beer! Pierre!” “I’m sorry, Calling your friend fear.” “Never mind, I’ll just call him later.” “Okay. Let me know if you need help with anything else.” The AI apps on our phones while helpful, are irritating… Continue reading Heb 3v7-8 – God’s accent
In South Africa, we have had to learn to live with load shedding. This is where we have our power cut off several times a day to stop the national power grid from collapsing. No power means the inability to do everyday things like working and cooking or could mean spending several hours in darkness.… Continue reading 2Pet 1v3-4 – Loadshedding
For me, maths class was the real challenge. Especially if it was the first time the teacher explained a new concept, like trigonometry, which made my brain go off on a tangent 😀. I would certainly miss it if I could. It can sometimes be like this with God’s Word and us. We read God’s… Continue reading 1Jo 2v27 – My Teacher
Pain. We are camping in the wilds, and I have just realized after taking my shoes off at the shower that I’ve left the soap in the tent. Rather than put my shoes on, I hazard the short walk back over the stony ground to the tent. Pain, as the sharp stones make me regret… Continue reading Eph 6:15 – Peaceful shoes
