Keep looking up!

What does faith look like when things don’t go as planned? What does it mean to trust the Lord through times of fear, frustration or uncertainty? At this very moment, we are playing the real estate waiting game. We are waiting for offers on our house – and none have come yet (and it’s 4pm). To make…

Look what I did!!!

Posted on May 11, 2017November 8, 2023 by Norm

Being Dutch, I am too cheap to hire a plumber. So when the P-drain snapped off from rust, I was determined to fix it myself. What you see here is the finished result, and its not leaking! Some of you may be snickering, ‘that’s not a big job’… or ‘that’s not the right way!’ Nevermind,…

Staged or real?

Posted on May 10, 2017November 8, 2023 by Norm

As part of the process of selling our home, our house has been staged. In the above photo you can see part of our staged bedroom. The pictures, chair, wine glasses, blankets, etc… none of this is ours. Our whole house looks and feels so ‘nice’, yet so fake. I left the closet open for a…

Only with His help!

When I was a wee child, only just 6 years old, I made a Go-Cart. I had no money, so I put my creativity to work. Using jam jar lids for wheels and nails for axles, I assembled my very own Go-Cart. The idea was brilliant, or so it seemed at the time. Obviously, the whole…

My heart, Christ’s home

Posted on April 29, 2017April 28, 2017 by Norm

Have you ever read this: My Heart, Christ’s Home? If you are a follower of Jesus, it’s worth reading. If you are not, it will still be good to read, you just may not like it as much. I thought of it when I was reflecting on Solomon’s building the temple for God. It asks…

Following Jesus — changes everything!

Posted on April 18, 2017April 19, 2017 by Norm

Actually, I think I disagree. Yes, hollow worship is harmless and risk free. But true worship, in spirit and truth, actually changes everything too. I would argue that worshipping Jesus and following Jesus are the same thing. But we have too narrow a definition of worship; we think of singing songs. Paul spoke of offering…

Jesus calling!

“Trust me, and don’t be afraid. Many things feel out of control. Your routines are not running smoothly. You tend to feel more secure when your life is predictable. Let me lead you to the rock that is higher than you and your circumstances. Take refuge in the shelter of My wings, where you are…

A reason to weep!

Posted on April 14, 2017April 14, 2017 by Norm

“Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.” (Galatians 3:1) I remember watching Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” (2004) in the theatre. As Jesus’ suffering and death was clearly portrayed before me, I wept like a baby. It was not just that I was sickened by the violence and gore… I…

think about it!

The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: “If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?” But… the good Samaritan reversed the question: “If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?”

— Martin Luther King, Jr.
