Recently, in one of the meetings at work, a colleague was very keen to convey that I had not done much of the task I had been set. Well, it was not so much “you have not done it”, but more “there was no progress shown”. The two are different,…
Hope: that pain will go away. Hope: that there is more time to spend together. Hope: that lives shared in enjoyment, which gives a lot of positivity. Somewhere there is a “misstep”. “Free from pain” is taken as a precondition for a good life, even as an evidence for…
When faced with a lot of information, we might end of making wrong decisions. Add to that, when we also work with many different groups of colleagues, the manners with which work is done is factored by social processes and custom, written and unseen convention, and various personal and group…
It would be so great if we have all information for us to do well, it means it’s far easier to make decision, take perpectives and reflect on where you have been and where you are going. In many of our lives, that is becoming a history – no matter…
We know our loved ones and family are saved in Christ, and our grieving during bereavement is not about utter lost, but joy in that they are now in the presence of God and away from the bondage of the world and physical body. Yet the struggle about the lost…
I agree, it is getting repetitive. Have we got it? Are the lessons not learned? Leviticus is one part of the Bible where not only that the text recounts things that are repeating themselves, even the text reads like another repeat, but different chapter and verses, and even in a…
It’s an odd question to ask – “is new in the way”? In the way of what? What is the context? What is the new? In what way is it new? Being found by God is a new experience. We might have tried different ways to “find” God, in any…
Given a great idea for somebody else, what is there to do apart from getting the idea done? Some ideas are universal, even things like necessity to breathe. That’s down to the absolutely bare minimum of life. Above such bare minimum, we might need to reflect if what I think…
The previous blog about “representation by proxy” (Yes, no, or ?) might have left readers on a ledge, a topic that might need more to resolve any questions or doubts about such a kind of idea. But, perhaps, taking a different topic, a different direction, might help. So here goes…
We go through our lives swiftly when in fact much of our beings rest on motions of “yes” or “no”. We rarely stop to realise this. Some of the “yes” or “no” occasions are very important, Others are opinated, others might be directed to us (decided for us), some others…
While reading up articles about our Sun, Earth and moon, I came across a recent discovery where it is reported that there is a planet that orbits two suns. It’s difficult to understand how that works, but after putting it in my mind for a while, there is a way…
It’s a tremendous struggle that many of us face – the human organisation that is church; more specifically, how we manage relationships within church, where none of us sets the rules or ways of doing things, but it is God himself. One of the many things surrounding this issue is…
