My friend Jon told me some time ago to set up a blog so I could share my thoughts, ideas and writing with anyone who might be interested and to get more exposure as a writer, but I've only just got around to it since he set up a website for our monthly worship event, Repose - http://www.findrepose.co.uk/
Unsurprisingly, my 'muse' or inspiration in finally getting around to getting a blog up and running was the One that we celebrate when we gather for worship. I am in the process of trying to write a book and it is, at times, a painfully slow process, not least of all when lacking inspiration! But that's one of the things I love most about this life of faith - it's not all ethereal, unearthly, super-spiritual hype - it is in essence living with the hard realities of life, knowing that you're not in it alone. It's dealing with all of the injustices and contradictions of the world in which we live whilst acknowledging that there is One who feels and grieves over them it more deeply than we do. It's celebrating all that is good and beautiful about life and humanity and recognising that the One who created it all rejoices in it with you.
I really hope you'll enjoy my musings, as random and sporadic as they may be, and that in some way, I'll be able to help you connect with the One who has given my life meaning.
God bless!
