Hope is greater than despair.
Love knocks fear to the curb.
Joy persists even in pain.
Peace can reside even in chaos.

Jesus can hold all parts of us together.

@davidparkerdv Praise God. You’re always in our prayers, and as it’s from GodsOwn New Zealand it’s close to Gods ear!

Contemporary culture is all about the exploration of the self-my feelings, my dreams, my sexuality. The book of Proverbs is all about navigating relationships well-with God, friends, parents and even fools! The Proverbs-life is way better than the self-life!

Archbishop Justin Welby’s life of prayer (starting at 5am every day) is an inspiring and challenging example for us all.

Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard & unkind. We think too much & feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness & gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent & all will be lost….
