Help!

, ,
What do I do when I need help? Binge, cry, shout, work out a plan, share about it with a friend or simply pray. I've done all these things but I find that when I can stop and pray, I can then be more at peace and see the answer coming. If I…

Come

,
I'm returning to this simple word that means so much. I think that this word is one of God's favourites as he wants everyone in the whole wide world to come to him so that he can love each of us. God's love is so immense and yet so often overlooked…

Overwhelmed

,
Sometimes what life throws at us can overwhelm us. I think that this is an experience that probably all humans face some time or other. Particularly when the unexpected happens, it can throw us in all directions. The emotional toll of such…

The Best

Faith

, ,
This is a biggy! The very centre stone of the foundation picture that I received when embarking on this Diamond Books venture was 'faith'. I felt the Lord saying to me that from now on (then and onwards) 'faith' was to be central to my life.…

Meekness

,
This is not a word we use much in every day life but Jesus Christ was known to be meek. I thought it meant humble but it turns out that it means being brought into submission like a wild horse being trained - out of control at first but harnessed…

Truth

,
Wars have been fought and won or lost over what people believe to be true. Truth is something that is very important especially in daily living as individuals and in families and groups as well. When you know that someone is going to tell the…
