By this we may know that we are in him: whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked. 1 John 2:5,6 At various times throughout the gospels we hear the Lord Jesus saying, “By this all people will know that you are my disciples.” He was… Continue reading Inward Reflection

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.
United in Word
Now the whole earth had one language and the same words. Genesis 11:1 Genesis 11 brings us into the generation of Noah’s great-grandchildren. As the families grew, the people migrated out, and finding a good plain of land in Shinar, they decided to settle. The people were intelligent and industrious, and they said to one… Continue reading United in Word
Seemingly Justified
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the heart. Proverbs 21:2 As a Christian, I don’t think that any of us want to do wrong, go the wrong way, or make a wrong decision. Sometimes, however, we react negatively to a situation but feel that we had… Continue reading Seemingly Justified
The Rainbow
I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Genesis 9:13 A rainbow is the most beautiful visual promise of God that we have the pleasure of seeing with our own eyes. The earth was birthed from the waters at the command… Continue reading The Rainbow
Choose Prayer
Let your ear be attentive and your eyes open, to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants, confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned against you. Nehemiah 1:6 Nehemiah had been separated from his family… Continue reading Choose Prayer
One Of A Kind
Let each person lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him, and to which God has called him. 1 Corinthians 7:17 Each person is a unique creation of God and each will have gifts and talents specifically tailored to them. Only you can be you. There is so much peer pressure, especially on… Continue reading One Of A Kind
Proper Conduct
Even a child makes himself known by his acts, by whether his conduct is pure and upright. Proverbs 20:11 Do you always practice what you preach? Even unintentionally, our actions can sometimes let us down. At times the guilt is felt immediately after we’ve done something and other times there is a short delay before… Continue reading Proper Conduct

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. 1 Peter 1:3 A question that is often asked after a challenging project or quest is, “If you… Continue reading Your Choice
Total Commitment
Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation. Noah walked with God. Genesis 6:9 We always tend to quote, ‘Enoch walked with God’ and yet the bible notes the same truth about his great-grandson, Noah; a man who had a tremendous, unequivocal faith. The people of the earth were found to be continually evil,… Continue reading Total Commitment
Acceptable Offering
If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it. Genesis 4:7 In betraying God’s word, Adam and Eve were displaced from Eden and from their perfect union with God. The Lord… Continue reading Acceptable Offering
