I heard something the other day that really made me think... A friends said prayer had to be out loud - it couldn't be in your head - because there was power in the words. That prayers needed to be spoken in order to have power. Just as God spoke to create the world. I've always prayed...

Hello! Don't often stop by here anymore......but I thought I'd pop by to say hi and wish you all a very happy Christmas. My prayer for us all this Christmas and in the coming year is that whatever we do and wherever we find ourselves that we will each be a step closer to Jesus. I pray that...

So what is your greatest regret? Or most nagging regret? What do you look back on in life and think - "wrong turn"? Is it too late to change things? If you can change it - why don't you? If you can't change it - how do you cope?

We did this at homegroup and it was fun and revealing....so if you could have two people to dinner (can be anyone alive/dead, fictional/real, famous or not) - who would you invite and why?

Each time we pray the Lord's Prayer we say "Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us." So somehow the grace we sow into the lives of others is the grace we will eventually reap too. Just wondered how easy it is for you to forgive others? What makes it hard at times for...
