Rant on Some people like to rain on praise reports, especially if the praise report involves healing through conventional medicine or surgery. Some people feel that it is actually their moral duty to do so. Those people are people I tend to avoid. Johnny posts, “I am so grateful to God and for the medical […]
Battles are Won When We are One
Exodus 17 8-13 – “Then Amalek came and fought with Israel at Rephidim. So Moses said to Joshua, ‘Choose for us men, and go out and fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.’ So Joshua did as Moses told him, and […]
Is a Worry Free Life Possible?
It was a stressful week, several years ago. Four members of the small church I attended landed in various Emergency Rooms around our region. Back then, I counted them all as friends, and I still do! For two of my friends, their visits were quick ones; they received proper treatment and were released to go […]
So Now What Do We Do?

But Wait… There’s More!
It is practically mandatory that any self-respecting Calgarian attend the Calgary Stampede, a cross between a rodeo, midway, and an exhibition that takes place in early July. Calgary is a huge metropolitan city. Most Calgarians have never seen a horse or a cow up close and personal. And yet, for ten days out of every year, […]
The Big Stick of Self-Condemnation
I thought I would give the visitors to my website and my email list subscribers a glimpse into what I am creating on Youtube. As I previously mentioned, I am working on providing practical applications to the devotions in my first two books, “Seasons” and “Dare to Call Him Friend.” Just to shake things up […]
Peacemaker or Peacekeeper – Kath’s Random Thoughts
Matthew 5:9 – “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” Are you peacekeeper or are you a peacemaker? Peacekeepers often do everything in their power to keep an artificial peace and use that power to control the behaviour of others. In the same manner that a guard keeps watch over […]
