I saw a parched, brown desert floor covered in deep cracks and ravines. A light rain … More The water table is rising
I spent some time worshipping and was just putting the hoover round when I heard God say…”keep the home fires burning”.

Recently I felt God challenge me with the words… You have to be what you want to see! I have felt Him nudge me a few times recently as I have been feeling a holy dissatisfaction with what I’m seeing. One of the things I wanted to see was what I was seeing in the … More Be what you want to see!
