Take Heart – Slides from the Video

In this episode, I'll be sharing poems that explore God's faithfulness to me through the 32 years I've been a follower of Jesus – and how He's there for you, too! 

I'll also be sharing the results of the questionnaire – huge thanks to everyone who filled it in! – and, based on those results, my plans for future episodes of This Now. (I'd still love to hear your feedback, though! See contact details below.)

I hope this episode will help you to find Jesus – and His love and faithfulness – in whatever season of life you may be in right now.

Welcome to episode 9!

A Knight's Tale (excerpt)

I step away from the smouldering ruins.
I set my face to the Sunrise.
For the One who called me calls still…

He steadies my weak knees;
He lifts my feeble hands.
His strength fills my fearful heart, for He comes to save me.

He is the River in my desert;
The parched land will bloom again.

And It Was So

As You spoke 

light into darkness,
order into chaos,
form into the void,
life into the barren earth –

So You speak

light into my sorrows,
order into my confusion,
form into my future,
life into me.

Finding the Rainbow (excerpt)

The massing vapours fill the sky
And tower high above the plains.
Beneath their shadow, here am I,
Disquieted by the coming rains.

Too soon, the thunderheads awake,
As tremors shake the shrinking earth.
I wonder what this storm will take,
And will I break, or find rebirth?

There will be loss. There will be pain.
And yet the Rainbow still remains.
