How tragic. I wouldn't think

Posted on Thu, 30 Mar 2017

How tragic. I wouldn't think that such scenarios were limited to any one political view, or any one kind of celebrity status (or none). But it demonstrates a mistaken attitude that biting and malice can give satisfaction, or 'retail high'. I...

Terry, you quote "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." (Matthew 19:24) in the teaser. Interesting to note that when the disciples said then "'Who then can be saved?",...

Posted on Fri, 24 Mar 2017

There is a difference between Heseltine losing advisory posts to the government if he is in disagreement with them, and actually punishing, trying to silence or prevent free speech, isn't there? But there is a lot of attempting to label polite,...

Is this autobiographical, Linda? If so, sorry to hear of  your bereavement now.

All those things never asked, and photos unknown, very striking. I take random photos from her collection into my mother-in-law. Sometimes she knows who and...

Thank you for that encouraging comment, Elsie. On their last birthdays, I did make little books for my 3 granddaughters.

Actually I started off on this subject wondering about trying to do something about the difference it used to be when...

Reminds me of Paul's

Posted on Sun, 19 Feb 2017

Reminds me of Paul's discourse in Romans 7, Graham, where Paul, having described how being released from being totally controlled by sinful passions by new life and the enabling of the Spirit to desire and do God's will and law, he then describes...

Posted on Mon, 13 Feb 2017

I like that rose in the picture – 'spilling dusty gold'! Also like the romance founded on and going on in devotion and grace, and although the love 'set and fixed' (frozen) yet still walking on through the years leaning on the blessing of heaven...

An interesting one, Graham. Brought to mind the gentle hugging a baby and child craves, and our own desire for accepting love at any age. Rhiannon

I also thought you seemed to have known this man so well, though maybe it was a combination of people known over the years. But was again interested in the sweep of life depicted (by our age, you do get aware of the sweep of the years, the...
