My Great Helper, Blood and High Tea: my short excursion in the city!

By on March 25, 2012 in Lifestream

I’m having one of those days where I have such a vast appreciation for God’s grace and providence today. As you know, I’m applying for my permanent residency for Canada. Through a lot of prayer, I have so far been successfully nominated by the province for a Permanent Residency, and recently received a request for [...]

Three great albums I’m stoked over

By on March 21, 2012 in Random

A while ago I posted three bands I was stoked over finding. Recently came across these ones. All Sons & Daughters – “Season 1″ Love, love, love this album; and a really super cute husband and wife duo. Just awesome listenable worship tracks with some poignant lyrics, great harmonies, and punctuated with some good sing-alongs [...]

I’m not skilled to understand

By on March 3, 2012 in Random
I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Savior

I take Him at His word and deed
Christ died to save me; this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my savior

That He would leave His place on high
And come for sinful man to die
You count it strange, so once did I
Before I knew my Savior

My Savior loves, My Savior lives
My Savior's always there for me
My God: He was, my God; He is
My God is always gonna be

Articulating the Gospel

By on March 2, 2012 in Lifestream

Last night, as I’m thinking and preparing for Good Friday, I sat down and tried to articulate the story of God and the Gospel in my own words… Was definitely a blessing trying harsh through what I believe and articulate it in to coherent sentences… or at least try to. And even as I reflected [...]

Be Ready… Everyday… in Continual Obedience

By on February 23, 2012 in Jesus' call on my life, Musings

Our modern day mobility Our generation may travel a lot, but we’re probably the most immobile generation earth has ever seen. I’ve had the pleasure of helping out families get ready for an overnighter at the grandparents in the midst of their kids dancing in chaotic excitement and sugared frenzies. Assisting parents pack supplies the [...]

Lent 2012: Food for my soul

By on February 21, 2012 in Lifestream

Last Sunday, I was SO blessed to have our home filled with people. An impressive 20 litres of pancake batter was fried up as we celebrated Shrove Tuesday, aka Pancake Day, with my church family. A game of sardines, again, was probably one of my favourite highlights. A deja vu moment was played out as [...]

Another day the Lord has made

By on February 20, 2012 in Lifestream

In my backyard it probably the world’s best ski resort. Just a vast mountain to explore. It was a good day Jesus had made, and He made everything else in it. I really enjoyed His creation today, and I enjoyed even more the company I got to enjoy it with. How much more delightful will [...]

Do Something… Let us win souls… Get to work and quit yourselves like men

By on February 16, 2012 in Random
In every minister's life there should be traces of stern labour. Brethren, do something; do something; DO SOMETHING. While Committees waste their time over resolutions, do something. While Societies and Unions are making constitutions, let us win souls. Too often we discuss, and discuss, and discuss, while Satan only laughs in his sleeve... Get to work and quit yourselves like men
Charles Spurgeon
