Beautiful Diamonds
Diamonds, Word of GodThe human race can reflect God's beauty as we yield and surrender to our maker. God's grace then becomes apparent and the beauty of Christ begins to show. This takes humility and meekness and a willingness to embrace total servanthood.

Resting
Comfort, Word of GodI'm not so good at this but have asked the Lord to teach me. He wants us in balance and we're of no use to him if we are burnt out.
The Bible clearly teaches us that we are to cease our own works and do his. Then we can enter into his rest…
Promptings
Inspiration, Motivation, Word of GodThe Holy Spirit is a prompter. He nudges, advises, teaches and guides us into the action that God wants. I've had experiences recently of God doing this to me. When I've forgotten something, he suddenly reminds me about it. When I've overlooked…

I love the idea of living just one day…

Comfort, Word of GodIs this human trait prevalent to us all or is it just experienced by the likes of the 'Dad's Army' characters? I'm more prone to this and have to guard myself from spilling out and making others panic, too!
However, God, as always, has…
Waiting
Word of GodOne of the hardest things we humans can do? I find this incredibly difficult but, as Christians, we are called to wait on God (Isaiah 40:28-31). Our busy lives are not a reflection of our spirituality - in fact, I would even say that the…
Drenching!
Comfort, Word of GodRain can give us this but the Spirit of God can give us living water that comes from God's heart. Trust that even though it has been the wettest February on record (I think I heard) if we had received the equivalent from the Holy Spirit I…
