The Iconic ‘Fergie Tractor’, caught on camera a couple of days ago, as part of a ‘Tractor run’, raising money annually. Lots of memories from my formative days with my grandfather, in his Market Garden. Memories are powerful moments for each of us. My grandfather had endless patience with me! Teaching me in his ownContinue reading “Fergie!”

‘Be not far away, O Lord; you are my strength; hasten to help me.’ Enough said, seemingly. The elements of the cry of the human heart. The thirst for hope and faith which lies within us. The refreshment of the Holy Spirit in our longing moments. Let the movement of the water across the stoneContinue reading “Praise the Lord!”

Darkness, twilight, and shadows intertwined into a scene of tranquillity. The resting of the day, passing into twilight. The setting sun pointing to shadows and allowing the night to make its entrance. Jesus Christ truly proclaimed that He was ‘the way, the truth and the light,’ beyond the resting and the waiting and the darkness.Continue reading “Resting and ending…..”

The promise of new possibilities, displayed by the colours of the flowers. The whole scene draws us into a moment of reflection. The moment of recognition that lifts our spirits and allows us to gives thanks for the glory of natural world, which we are part of! Allow yourself to be immersed in the colourContinue reading “Promise….”

Sea wall, rocky shoreline, expansive sky, and in the distance, the lighthouse on coquet Island…..and a silhouette of me taking the photograph! Oooops! A moment in time which is held in my consciousness. The still point of thankfulness that we all need at least some time during the day. I’m preaching to myself here asContinue reading “A Moment….”

A glass sphere, reflecting a woodland path, balancing on the top of a wooden post. So many inputs as we try to make sense of all that is happening! A little like our lives in these days we pass through. The God of love waits for us to make a response, but quite often weContinue reading “Balance…”

‘The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God lasts forever’. Isaiah 40, verse 8. Nothing lasts forever, so the saying of the prophet goes! Not particularly earth shattering, but never the less, food for thought! It all comes down to response. Accepting that God speaks to us in many waysContinue reading “Everlasting….”

A twisted tree branch, or perhaps the remains of a root. No matter which, it gets us thinking about the story of this one piece of wood, now disconnected from its original purpose. The weaving of the elements in the photograph will prompt each of us to make our own story and try to makeContinue reading “Weaving….”

Not the dimming or the ending, but the beginning. Light breaking into darkness and the promise of a new day. Coquet Island, which I see through my study window; blessed indeed, ‘Never take anything for granted’,I hear myself say, but I often fail. It is at this point that the still small voice of GodContinue reading “Light on!”
