empty handed, but alive in your hands

I know the word Facebook offends some of you here - but i unashamedly think it's fantastic...and not least, in fact perhaps most, because if this is what is made possible, then... 'Glory'.

If you're not signed up to Facebook yet, you may not be able to follow that link, so here's what it's about...
Basically some guy has started a 'Group', but unlike a lot of the frivilous groups on Facebook like, 'If 1,000 people sign up to this group i'll eat my boxer shorts', or 'Badger appreciation society' (both, made up titles - though, i'd love to know more about Badgers...another day, another post!)
....Anyway, this group's purpose is to raise money for the fantastic charity, Compassion

This guy is extraordinary! I think i might start watching the show 'Britain's got talent' now... just look at the expressions on the judges' faces and the response of the audience when this guy opens his mouth...

i know it's better in the long run...and wiser to 'tame the tongue'...but sometimes i just wanna have a massive rant

Friends...I am torn.

For those of you who don't understand football, you might as well stop reading now and preserve any good opinion you might have of me.

For those of you who are familiar with the cream of life...
Liverpool have quite a big match on Tuesday evening. And the atmosphere for matches like these at Anfield is second to none and nowhere. But i can't watch it.

I do hope Tim H doesn't mind me jumping on the back of his last post - but i happened to have the unedited audio file of this prayer/sermon on my computer so thought i'd attach it to this post - you can listen to it online, or download it to your iPod...

Well, it's been far too long (deja vu)...
I had the privilege of going to the Ugandan Alpha conference last month and had a great time...which surprised me a bit...

Right, so sorry about this but i'm in a super-rush to get home and pack.
Got back from an amazing week in Kampala for the Uganda Alpha conference - more later!
Just about to head off to New York for a week's holiday, my Michelle's birthday (on Wed) and then an old school friends wedding (on Sat) - it's a tough life i know, all this jet-setting!

Goodbye, Kwaheri and Laters,

the prayer weekend was awesome, as you can read here. so thanks to those of you who prayed - still recovering from the 3-5am prayer watch though! It's also astounding how beautiful my wife can look after so little sleep!

"...it stinks, but if you get out of it you'll drown!"

Note: i actually think this is too harsh, having quoted it, i don't agree with it universally, but it made me chuckle with meloncholy - there are some churches doing 'church', or trying to do it as Christ intended... but if we are honest, the above quote would tap into what a lot of people feel about 'Christendom' or 'Religion'... or am i wrong!?
