“Are you okay?” The words are being thrown around left, right, and centre today. The school children are wearing yellow. Businesses send out emails to their employees. Supermarket and retail employees sport their yellow wristbands. If only people took it seriously every day, instead of just one day a year…
Australia Day, the 26th of January, is a controversial date but the reason behind the celebration isn’t what a lot of people think. There is so much to unpack here, so I hope you will take the time to read this.
I don’t know many people who love the feeling of conviction, especially when it’s heavy and makes you buckle at the knees.
Here are some thoughts about the weight of conviction and the breath of life- the divine breath of God and His Word.
Some of us are dealing okay, but some of us aren’t. I guess that’s the same everywhere, right? Some of us heal faster. Some of us heal slowly and gradually. Some of us begin to heal and then it catches up with us again and we come crashing down. Some of us don’t even know how it happens; one day they’re fine and the next they’re not.

A poem, by Julie Priebbenow. You were on His mind before the world began;In the darkness and space, you were part of His plan.As He created the world and all things good,And when He punished the evil with a world-wide flood.
