Our Lives of Quiet Desperation – My Relationship with God
https://norasrelationshipwithgod.wordpress.com/2016/07/11/our-lives-of-quiet-desperation
My Relationship with God. Our Lives of Quiet Desperation. Do you ever feel like the world is a scary place? Do you feel like you can only trust the friends and family just within your innermost circle, and outside of that, there might as well be zombies waiting to feast on you? Do you feel frustration and confusion, dismay and horror at the condition of the world? We are all yearning for this vision of humanity that can all get along. It seems like it should be so easy right? Before the age of smart phon...

Let there be Light! | Grace Grit and Gumption

Grace Grit and Gumption. Thoughts from a Welsh Valley Pastor. Let there be Light! October 31, 2016. October 31, 2016. Last week we welcomed over 40 local children (many un-churched) to our light themed holiday club. Each morning began with games around the chapel; from guess what is in the boxes, to blindfolded ‘put the flame on the candle’, shadow puppets, Simon says and activity sheets. We then gathered to hear God’s Word and I gave a brief message. We then played various games and had refreshments.

Grace Grit and Gumption. Thoughts from a Welsh Valley Pastor. Stephen Fry on God and why it went viral? January 14, 2017. February 4, 2017. In February 2015 Gay Byrne (RTE) asked Stephen Fry what he would say to God on their inevitable meeting. Stephen Fry’s answer went viral on YouTube. I chose to respond on an individual basis but I did not want to rebuke publically as I felt it to be a Matthew 7:6 scenario and greater men than I were doing a better job. The reason is simple; As God by definition is ou...

For Mother Theresa – My Relationship with God
https://norasrelationshipwithgod.wordpress.com/2016/09/11/for-mother-theresa
My Relationship with God. Mother Theresa was finally officially recognized as. The Catholic church last week, nine years after the intensive beatification process started in 2007. I hadn’t given much thought to her really. Interestingly, a few weeks ago Brandon and I watched a Netflix documentary on Mother Theresa’s letters from her work as a nun living in the slums of Calcutta to her spiritual guidance counselor, or. As the church calls them. My favorite little nun! Of charity, I mean, WAAAAAY more than.

Meditation Guide and Record. December 24, 2016 1 Comment. Lest we become discouraged, remember that just before his great enlightenment the Buddha’s mind was filled with images of greatness, riches and beautiful women; followed by frightening images of armies threatening his life. These, we are told, were caused by the demon Mara. But if we strip away the mythology are they not just distractions? The same distractions you and I have everyday? December 25, 2016 at 3:41 am.

Dealing with change – thoughts on BREXIT | Grace Grit and Gumption
https://gracegritandgumption.wordpress.com/2016/06/29/dealing-with-change-thoughts-on-brexit
Grace Grit and Gumption. Thoughts from a Welsh Valley Pastor. Dealing with change – thoughts on BREXIT. June 29, 2016. June 29, 2016. It is best to keep politics out of the pulpit, I do not want to alienate anyone from the Gospel because of my opinion, especially when such concerns have little significance in the light of eternity. For these reasons I have remained dutifully silent throughout the EU referendum. The world is on its head and nobody knows what tomorrow will bring. Business is changing faste...

Grace Grit and Gumption. Thoughts from a Welsh Valley Pastor. Sgt Pepper’s homage 2016 – Happy New Year 2017. December 31, 2016. December 31, 2016. All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field. The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands for ever. 8221; (Isaiah 40:7-8). It is hard to summarise such a turbulent year as 2016, but the Sgt Pepper’s homage (above) has done this so well. For more on this read Dealing with Change thoughts on BREXIT.
