One of my favourite hymns, , is a song I turn to often when I simply need to remind myself that God loves me just the way I am. God loves each one of us just as we are, with all our faults and failings, all our joys and all our fears. God will always love us just as we are. I personally find verses 3 and 5 of , are those I turn to for reassurance: Just as I am, though tossed about With many a conflict, many a doubt, Fightings within and fears without, O Lamb of God, I come...

My Love of Music

I think my love of music started at a very early age as both my Mum and Dad were always very musically minded. My Dad is a big fan of jazz/big band music and as a keen musician has played in many bands over the years. He also spends a lot of time arranging/composing music for some of the bands/soloists he knows. On the other hand, my Mum's side of the family grew up attending the Salvation Army and as such were heavily involved in both the singing groups and the bands - My grandfather... Read Full Story

When I was in my office on Friday last week, during a general conversation that was based around the closure of Borders and specificly the one at the Glasgow Fort, the word " hoaching " was used to describe the Borders during it's final days before closure. I knew exactly what was meant, but one of the other folk who is not Scottish did not understand what was " hoaching " meant, despite having lived in the West of Scotland for quite a number of years now. So, now I've given you a clue that... Read Full Story

I've been here a thousand times before Face down on the floor Wondering how I even reached this place again But, You have shown so endlessly, how Your love pours over me No picture can re-create the beauty that I see Show me what it means, to live my life a sacrifice If only I would realize how much it took to pay the price I know I'd always give, everything to You I want this world to see Your perfect majesty Reflecting from my life this brilliant poetry Written...

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 (The Message) If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love, I'm nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God's Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, "Jump," and it jumps, but I don't love, I'm nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I... Read Full Story
