God invites us to be a people of prayer—fully dependent on Him to move, to transform hearts, and to bring real change in our lives and in the world around us. Prayer is more than just words we say; it’s a way of drawing near to the heart of God, learning to listen, and aligning our lives with His will.
I think my hurry in life comes from a place of fear. Fear of missing out on the things that I’m supposed to experience or missing out on people I’m supposed to meet and know and love. I’m afraid that if I spend too much time here, I’ll miss out on the things that are ahead. I’m afraid someone else will beat me to it.
The warmth of the light shone through the glass and out into the bleakness of the frigid winter morning. Just inside the door she stood peering through the frosty glass at the empty street before her. Her tangled yellow hair tumbled over the hood of her bulky purple snowsuit. She had been waiting for him for a while; tiny pearls of sweat speckled her nose. She exhaled a warm breath onto the glass and wrote her name in sloppy cursive.
Your first year of marriage is often considered to be a big one, as it should. With all of the wedding chaos behind you, people are constantly asking how the newlyweds are, all while you are settling into your new lives together and learning to live combined lives. However, statistics tells us that the first year is often rocky and considered to be in the high-risk category for divorce. Unfortunately, most marriages that fail will do so in the first two years. So, today, I am going to get honest about my first year of marriage and pray that it will speak to you. It was a year totally filled with expectations, change, chaos, and a whole lot of feelings for sure yet, it taught me so much, and I wouldn’t trade that for anything.
As a community of faith people, there are many of us who like rules. We like the safety and comfort of the black and white do’s and don’ts, and struggle with the grey. We like the ‘thou shalts’ and tend to feel good about ourselves when we can check off the boxes of obedience and adhere to authority.
In the early hours of January 1, I sat alone on an empty Go train on my way into a shift at the hospital for work. It was just me, my reflection in the windows against the dark sky, and a journal I brought to pen my thoughts for the end of the year. I was in the beginning of what would be one of the most painful and emotionally draining seasons of my life and I had no idea. I wanted to wrap 2019 around with a neat little bow and lean forward with hopeful expectation into the year ahead, believing that 2020 would be the year everything came together for me. I penned in big letters the word faithfulness, which later came to be far more profound than I could have known in that moment.
It’s commonly said around King St; “Trouble doesn’t make an advanced appointment on your calendar – it just shows up!” As we all know from this year, the unexpected can and does happen but what can we do about it?
If you really think about it, those 7,000 words or more, are your imprint on the world; they dictate how people perceive you and largely define you. Yet, the book of Proverbs is filled with guidance to be careful with our words. So, where is the balance?
When you think about loving people and sexuality, most of us would say that these two things have everything to do with each other. But surprisingly there is a lot of sexual activity in our culture that has little to do with love. pornography, self-gratification, sexual experimentation and preferences and even sex in the media and advertisement has more to do with lust, than love.
2050, a bungalow stands,
An old man sits alone
The TV has played all it has to give,
He decides to pick up the phone.
“No”. A two year olds favourite word. The word a lot of us fear, dread, and despise. Just two letters long, but a word which carries a lot of weight. One of the shortest words in the English language, but one which can arguably hold the biggest impact.
