Well, I’ve started my blog and I think a little explanation is in order. I am an elder of a church in Keighley, UK, and am in the habit each year of reading through the entire Bible in my daily devotions. I find that often the Spirit will draw my attention to some particular verse or thought. I follow this up sometimes immediately, and at other times I make a note to follow up later. Quite often I use these musings as a short devotional comment in our church weekly bulletin/newsletter. I have done this for many years, and it has been clear that on occasions they have been a blessing to some people.
It has now been suggested by a friend, also a fellow elder in our church, that I need to make my musings available to a wider constituency – so here I am!
I am not a theologian. Nor am I trying to come up with some new spiritual revelation which will make the church more effectual. And I most definitely am not trying to make a name for myself. I am simply sharing my God thoughts. Sometimes they will be in the nature of worship, at other times they may be prophetic and possibly provocative – in the first instance to myself. Occasionally, they may be aspects of revelation by the Spirit to me.
I hope that you enjoy sharing something of my musings with Father.
