Jesus is my crutch

Tonight, I was reflecting on what some (condescending) people say:  “If you need religion, it’s ok for you” or:  “Religion is good for those who need it”  Seriously? If you’re an ex-addict who has met Jesus, you know how ludicrous these sorts of statements are. Religion? Easier? Really?  First off: religion can’t help *anyone*. Religion is a man-based system of rules to help people think better of themselves. From Atheism to Islam, religions simply deceive People into believing their perception of morality is correct and that they are *good*.  Second: if you’ve met Jesus & know what He He wants …

Look what came in the mail! 1961 JW Bible…

I can’t believe how excited I am to receive this Bible today!  We likely have 50+ Bibles in the house (and around a thousand to give to people).  But this one is for me. The reason it’s so amazing & special? Because, unlike all the rest, it is *not* accurate! Yep you read that right!  No matter what translation of the Bible you have and no matter what year, it is likely 99.9% the same as nearly every other Bible out there. Our English language has changed, but the meaning of the Bible over thousands of years, 45,000+ manuscripts and …

Jesus fed how many??

I remember telling someone about Jesus one time and his condescending reply was something like:  “Yer right as if someone could feed all those people – it was a trick or made up” I remember being very direct with him, challenging him that if that was the only argument he had to face God with on Judgment Day, he should be very afraid. Imagine, facing God, stained with sin, having rejected the Son He sent to suffer & die to pay for those sins and *that* was your defence?!  But it goes much further than that. The more you look …

Close Calls Second Chances & the ultimate backup plan

Driving a machine today, if I had done what was normal, what I normally do, one of my younger children would likely be in the morgue tonight. For some reason, in that split second, I didn’t do what was ’normal’ and ½ a second later I saw them.  It is truly humbling, scary and makes me feel physically sick to think about how close it was. Something in me would not allow me to control the machine as per normal.  It is a sober reminder that we never know when life will change *drastically* forever. Sometimes, for whatever reason, we get …

What’s in a bed?

This week, in the lead up to our 20th wedding anniversary, Sharmini found a secondhand bed that would match the drawers we have.  She went to pick it up and I started emptying the room to make way for it. I was certain she would want it in the room the second she got home, yet surprised me with an idea:  “Let’s reminisce about our early married life and sleep on the floor!”  What an amazing idea!  When we were first married, we lived in my parents house, in a room crowded with things I was selling, our clothes and …

Has He met you?

Reading a famous section of the Bible today, where Jesus ‘had’ to go through a ‘bad part of town’.  If you know Jesus (or the area), you know He didn’t ‘have’ to at all – but He had decided to meet a specific person at a specific time for a specific person.  This person had no idea that He was coming to meet her – nor did she know who He was.  She was a despicable person, shunned by her whole town (likely slut shamed) – a dirty sinner. Yet this is the very type of person Jesus came to …

Budget for your marriage NOT your wedding!

Look what I found today! It is the actual budget tally for our wedding 20 years ago… We had 200-300 at the ceremony and around 150 at the reception. We cut corners everywhere we could:  Catering was a voucher and friends / family chipping in. For cars, we found an old Holden lover. For table decorations we did ourselves – bowls with pebbles and fish.Sharmini’s dress? Borrowed. The rings – secondhand.  The total including catering, hair, cars and photography? All in $3,070!!!  At that time, that was a *huge* amount of money for us, I clearly remember the $300 to rent chair …

Face to face with evil…

Recently. I watched a documentary about ‘encounters with evil’. Police investigative and psychological interviews (+ descriptions) of people who they considered evil.  Some of the acts were gruesome, the detective work to find and convict them riveting. But one particular phrase really grabbed me:  What is it like to come face to face with evil? While these heinous crimes were disgusting, there is a difference between those who do evil things and evil itself…  I remember clearly the day I came face to face with actual evil. A spiritual entity that had so much power it captivated me. A master …

The amazing thing is, it comes with an optional offer of *guaranteed* forgiveness (for everything you have ever done!)! For many, the question “Do you need forgiveness?” results in 3 answers – which reflects you? : “I don’t need forgiveness” “I have to earn forgiveness” “I deserve to be forgiven” The truth is though, we have all violated the rules of the Creator.
