Bible Reflections are triggered by my current reading of Scripture from the Holy Bible.
“Once upon a time…The End.” I loved the old Walt Disney stories. But the greatest love story ever written is found in the most read and produced book in the world – The Holy Bible. It starts with, “In the beginning…” and there is no end for those who understand it and obey it…there is…
The recent death of people, like Michael Jackson, and the associated hysteria and the outpouring of grief for such a loved one who has died, is tied up in the loss of that person from here on Earth. Funerals to me are either profoundly sad or joyful. Joyful, only if I know that they were…
Imagine if you were given a glimpse of the future… your future. So many people want to know, must know. They chase after fortune tellers with crystal balls, visionaries or even prophets. But, I have come to realise that if God were to have shown me some of the things I was going to do…
Have you watched the show, “Where are they now?” I have often wondered where some of the people I have come across over the years, are right now. It is also interesting to observe the rise and fall of celebrities as they enter the spot light and then exit stage right. Michael Jackson just died…

Whilst Outback – the middle of the Australian bush – I stumbled upon a rare field of Maltese Crosses. Here is the Mud Map to finding them. You would have thought I had discovered Gold! To me, on that day, it was one and the same. These little crosses were fascinating. A Maltese Cross is…
The Bill is due today! “Oh, it’ll be fine… I’ll let it go for a while longer and wait until I get a Reminder in the mail“. It is the Reminder. “Oh, that’s okay I’ll wait until I get a Final Notice.“ So many people live this way. I met a man who put all…
“Yes, I’ll be there next Sunday.” The good intention of, “You have my word on it!” A commitment sealed. Then Friday comes and a better offer is made for Sunday. “Hey, here are free corporate tickets to the Grand Prix on Sunday…want them?” What to do? Just like King Darius, who was trapped by his…
