    Do You Ever Feel Like A Praise Hypocrite?

    Until recently I've generally 'thought' my prayers rather than verbalising sometimes writing them down feels more focused than thinking or speaking them. I don't like my voice and I think there's a little fear or embarrassment of being overheard too, silly I know. My focus point for this post...

    It's that time again

    Tinsel Time T'is tinsel time when midst the grime Of muddied minds shines, What can it be? Electro-lite silver gilding This gingerless bread of strife? Celebrating the survival of the fittest, The feel good factor? Forgetting for the festive moment The fate that awaits. Or, could it be the...

So, we should expect that we will be hated, persecuted, despised and rejected of humankind. Although Satan is our...
