“Disciple is the wholehearted yes to the call of God. When I know myself called, summoned, addresses, taken possession of, know, acted upon, I have heard the Master. I put myself gladly, fully, and forever at His disposal, and to whatever He says my answer is yes.” ~ Elizabeth Elliot, Joyful Surender, pg 16 WhatContinue reading “A Daily Thought…”

A Lesson in Human Calling
Genesis 11 – The Tower of Babel As humans we are so quick to try and do everything ourselves. No matter how big or how small, we must complete the task independently – we pride ourselves on being able to say, look what I did. Sometimes this is a conscious decision of pride but oftenContinue reading “A Lesson in Human Calling”

A long time…
A musing on Gen 7 & 8, comparing his stay on the ark to our COVID-19 lockdown. I never realised how long Noah spent in the ark with his family and the animals. I always knew it was 40 days and 40 nights, which doesn’t sound so bad. (Until you’re stuck in lockdown for thatContinue reading “A long time…”
Genealogy Musings
A few thoughts on Genesis Chapter 5 1) Adam returned to God and lived out the rest of his days for God offering sacrifices. There are two reasons from this chapter I think this is true: 1) how could Cain and Able know to offer sacrifices if they did not have an example? Someone hadContinue reading “Genealogy Musings”
Gen 4 – The Heart Matters
Genesis 4:1-16 ~ My musings on the story of Cain and Able. It is so easy to go through the motions when it comes to life and God. How easy and how often do we do things out of obligation and spite? We pretend everything is good on the surface, but inside we are aContinue reading “Gen 4 – The Heart Matters”
Gen 3 – Part 2
The beginning of the redemption story ♡ Thankfully the story didn’t end with our sin! If it did, God might as well wiped out the whole earth and all of humanity right then and there! We had lost our open fellowship with God and had earned death by our disobedience. But, instead of them destitute,Continue reading “Gen 3 – Part 2”
Lest We Forget.
Today is ANZAC day, the day when life stops and collectively as a nation we look back and remember and honour all those who have fought for Australia and New Zealand. As the daughter of both an Aussie and a Kiwi, I feel this day has a special significance, the coming together of our twoContinue reading “Lest We Forget.”
Genesis 3: Part 1 – The Fall
Chapter 3: The part of the story where we show how foolish and fallible we are and God shows just how full of love, mercy and compassion He is and that He always has a plan. I’ve always hated this chapter, its the one I always try to avoid and skirt around. I’d rather notContinue reading “Genesis 3: Part 1 – The Fall”
Musings on Gen 2
Genesis 2 – part 2 in my reading of Genesis (surprise surprise 😂) While many sermons and books could be written on any one of the many valuable and instructive themes, situations and topics presented in this chapter, I found it was helpful to list out some of the points I thought God was makingContinue reading “Musings on Gen 2”
