Pain will always be a part of your journey. The greatest remedy for a life of pain is a life of purpose. A life of purpose creates a journey where everything in it takes on a brand new meaning. Every ache and every pain is placed through a

The Greatest Show Off
Showing off would be excellent (and even more amusing to watch) if it wasn’t accompanied by making the rest of us feel just a little smaller than we did before we noticed you showing it off. It could be in the largeness of your endeavour, the smallness of your waist,
Kill Negativity
Your greatest enemy is negativity. If you beat it, things that are dead will come back to life; things that are sick will get healed; things that are missing will be found. That’s what happens when you speak light into darkness and not darkness into light. You’ll have to beat
What you say about who you are, will determine who you will be
For every believer, there’s three of You in you- the Fallen You, the Natural You and the New You. The Real You is the combination of the Natural You with the New You. The Fake You- the Imposter- is the combination of the Natural You with the Fallen You. The
Left Brain Churches
My left brain LOVES systems, adores categories, loves pathways and clings to lists, databases, and more lists. My right brain HATES to know that I’m part of any such things as these. My right brain ADORES authenticity. It craves individuality and looks for people who can see my unique added
I See Demons
From the birth of human civilisation until now, if we found anything that represented a threat to us we would quickly demonise it. That’s because demonisation is easy as and quickly unites everyone against an obvious enemy. The problem with this is that people are not demons, sickness is usually
What you think of me is wrong.
Most of our judgements of others are not right because we are judging each other via snapshot. And a snapshot never tells the truth. If you strip someone from their history, you’ll never see right. If you strip someone of their potential, you’ll always be wrong. We never stand alone.
You. You are the line between what you accept and what you don’t.
For starters and for all our sakes you need to be MORE agreeable. You need to find more common ground in conversation, on social media, with your parents or in your marriage. It’s a part of growing up. Don’t let the niggles, the extremes and the stupidities of our society
He’s Only Been Waiting
When you move from pure faith to proof of faith, by stepping out and facing your fears, God moves from His presence to his provision and from the ‘forth dimension’ into the third. He’s only been waiting. What others believe to be true is not what they say but what
Are you a Late Developer?
Late means there’s was quite a bit of stuff going on before you got to get going in your chosen craft. If you were to draw a picture of your life it would be more like a pyramid with a wide base that took ages to create, rather than a
How to Stop being a Control Freak
CONTROL FREAKS are just perfectionists who have let their addiction to perfect get the better of them. Yet let’s not pick on them too much- they happily catch planes, trains and automobiles where they are completely out of control! They trust. But it’s not blind trust- it’s track record trust.
How to be a slightly less Dysfunctional Leader
1- Don’t make final decisions on your own. You’re not great at perspective. You know that. Get some people who aren’t ‘yes men’ who love you, have displayed unconditional love to you and have a gift of discernment. That way you’ll end up looking better than you actually are. ?
How to work for a Dysfunctional Leader
Dysfunctional leaders regularly move the goalposts. They take your work for granted and explode over the smallest of details. They never complete a vision before moving to the next. They never take blame for their own words and actions and rarely apologise. They love you one day and reject you
Banter Grows the Church
Banter is the language of a champion team. It always amuses those who listen in. You can tell a great team by the banter that accompanies it. Low banter: weak team. High banter: strong team. Banter is a language that expresses grace, understanding, acceptance, celebration and genuine togetherness. When something
