And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground. 1 Samuel 3:19 I shared my thoughts on this verse a couple of years ago, but it is such an interesting verse that I decided to share it again. It was the phrase ‘and let none… Continue reading Walking with Samuel

I am a writer of Bible devotions, a writer of songs and occasionally a writer of poems. I am also a Christian, so I suppose you could call me a Christian writer. My first book - aptly named 'The Narrow Path' will be published in September 2024. I live in Northern Ireland and when I get the opportunity, I love to travel.
Walking with Hannah
Talk no more so very proudly, let not arrogance come from your mouth; for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. 1 Samuel 2:3 You would be forgiven for thinking that these are the words of a prophet, for they are strong words; accusatory words. So, who could… Continue reading Walking with Hannah
Walking with Boaz
May you act worthily in Ephrathah and be renowned in Bethlehem. Ruth 4:11 Rahab raised her son in the ways of the Lord and he became a godly man, worthy and honourable. Boaz lived his life according to the law of God, which is evident during the barley harvest. The law stated that, ‘when you… Continue reading Walking with Boaz
Walking with Rahab
“For the Lord your God, he is God in the heavens above and on the earth beneath.” Joshua 2:11 When Joshua sent the spies into Jericho, Rahab confessed, ‘we have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, and what you did to the two kings, Sihon and Og,… Continue reading Walking with Rahab

Walking with Moses
WALKING WITH THOSE WHO WALKED WITH GOD The Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. Exodus 33:11 I know we are not supposed to be jealous or envious, but I have to admit that I am a little bit envious of Moses. I have heard God… Continue reading Walking with Moses
No Payback?
When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. 1 Peter 2:23 One of the difficulties that we encounter as a Christian is leaving everything in God’s hands. We are fine with some things, willingly handing them over… Continue reading No Payback?
Can I Have Your Attention, Please?
We must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. Hebrews 2:11 The Word of God was written for our benefit; your benefit. Held within every page of the Bible there is instruction, direction and guidance; there is strength, comfort and hope. It contains true stories of real… Continue reading Can I Have Your Attention, Please?
Building Framework
Make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge. 2 Peter 1:5 Do you see your faith as a building project or as something that is fine the way it is and doesn’t need anything added to it? The Lord Jesus himself likens us to house builders, building on the truth… Continue reading Building Framework
A Surprising Source
The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook. 1 Kings 17:6 There were two thoughts that came to me when thinking about this verse concerning Elijah, the first of which was about relationship. Elijah had told king Ahab that there… Continue reading A Surprising Source
