God, Have Mercy on Me, a Sinner

It’s difficult to answer this one. I failed my driving test on the first occasion. Then, I passed when I did it again. Perhaps it made me a better driver, but I don’t know. And I would have failed to get jobs that I applied for, and I’d get another job instead. But I don’t … Continue reading God, Have Mercy on Me, a Sinner

Hymns: King of Kings, Majesty

I’ve been exploring some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy πŸ˜€. But now, I’ve decided to alternate between very modern hymns, old hymns, and in-between hymns, namely the worship songs from the 60s to the 90s that feature in hymnbooks such as Mission Praise. Today it’s the turn of the in-between … Continue reading Hymns: King of Kings, Majesty

I Was Born Twice

Let me think. I could write “It was the best of times, it was the “blurst” of times”. But maybe Charles Dickens would sue me – or the monkeys from the Simpsons.

I assume that this question relates to things that I’d be sorry to lose rather than something that would literally cause your death, such as losing access to essential medication.

Simple Twist of Fate

I’d like to thank Bob Dylan for today’s title. That’s from his 1975 album, Blood on the Tracks πŸ˜€. I knew little about Dylan until I heard that he’d become a born-again Christian in 1979. I was on that path myself in 1979, and Dylan helped to give me the final nudge to commit my … Continue reading Simple Twist of Fate
