The discipline of exercise – Helen Paris

For a number of months now I have been endeavouring to bring the discipline of exercise back into my life. Like most of us, I do my fair share of walking which I am grateful for, mindful that there are many homebound persons who can’t even make that choice. However I am finding that by …

Trusting in God Alone – Helen Paris

I have been impacted by a book that I received from a friend entitled ‘Jesus Calling’. As the Holy Spirit so often does in our lives, He moves through another person to minister to our individual spiritual needs.
This book has met me where I needed to be encouraged to continually seek the living presence of …

In writing, Graeme & I are down in New Zealand enjoying catching up with our family and friends.
One of those friends is a physiotherapist whose passion in life is to share the knowledge of correct breathing, at rest, which is to breathe into your tummy and breathe less air enhancing the mind and body, also …

We All Have Gifts – Helen Paris

I have been aware lately of the creative gift God has given me and of course given to you.
Naturally our creativeness may come forth in a completely different shape. This is wonderful.  Because God is limitless, we are freely able to be diverse as humans in our expression.
I don’t know about you but because it …

God is Faithful – Helen Paris

I know like me you will be sighing with relief that the pre-Christmas pressure is a distant memory – but I am sure that the actual joy of the Christmas message and the festivities that surround this most important event in the Christian calendar lingers on.

The Meaning of Christmas – Helen Paris

Having had the privilege to attend Christmas school events in the last week, I am forever captivated, enchanted by these beautiful little persons full of chatter, dashing here and there, calling out to friends they see, interacting enthusiastically with each other – such stimulating energy.
As one grows older I think we appreciate more profoundly the …

Noise and Peace – Helen Paris

Recently Graeme and I decided to go to the cinema, a very rare occurrence for us, to see the latest James Bond movie – we had heard that it was good, action packed etc -  not me really, but then it was 007 after all, who couldn’t make that allowance.
However the moment the adverts and …

God’s Provision – Helen Paris

I am at present listening by CD to the book of Hebrews and in Chapter 11:8 it says:-
“By faith Abraham when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.”
This particular scripture in measure I can relate to …

It’s not hard to be inspired by Ben Cooley. That’s what happened when a couple of the Willow Creek UK & Ireland team met him for lunch a few months ago. Here was a man with a clear vision and a burning passion – if you watch the video below, you will see what we …

Where is your home? – Helen Paris

I am sure that you share with me and millions in Britain and around the world, a great love and respect for our Queen Elizabeth 2nd.
For although I wasn’t born in England, it has been the Motherland to my family and our lineage has strong roots in the British Isles. My grandfather left Britain in …
