Finding balance and looking ahead-a quick update from me! 

I’m so sorry for not writing much lately. Life has taken a busy turn with a new job and a pretty demanding role. It’s kept me on my toes, and I’ve missed connecting with you all through these posts. The days seem to blur together with meetings, deadlines, and trying to keep up with everything. I’ve always loved sitting down to share thoughts on faith, life, and what God’s been teaching me, so this quieter spell on the blog has felt strange. Thanks for sticking with me through it—I’m hoping to find a better rhythm soon, though it might take a bit of juggling.

In a few weeks, I’ve got the privilege of preaching at church on Micah chapter 4, and I’m really looking forward to it. It’s a powerful passage about God’s promise of hope and restoration, packed with vivid imagery and big ideas. Here’s a taste from the early part: “Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the Lord’s house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And peoples shall flow to it. Many nations shall come and say, ‘Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths.'” What a picture of unity and peace—a time when people from all over will come together to seek God and live in His ways. There’s so much in there to unpack, and what’s fascinating is how many different ways folks interpret it. Some see it as a literal future event, with a physical temple and nations streaming to Jerusalem. Others take it more symbolically, pointing to the church or even Christ’s ultimate reign. I’m excited to dig into those perspectives, wrestle with the text, and see where the Spirit leads. It’s a chance to explore what this hope means for us today—how we hold onto it amid our own challenges. Keep praying for God’s kingdom to come as I prepare!

On another note, don’t forget you can catch me every Thursday evening from 6 pm UK time on Pure 24/7 Radio for the 90s show. It’s a blast spinning those tunes—think Oasis, Spice Girls, and maybe a bit of Take That—and chatting about life and faith. There’s something special about music that takes you back, isn’t there? It’s a chance to unwind, reflect, and connect with listeners who share a love for the era. Tune in at pure247radio.org—I’d love to have you along for the ride. The team at Pure 24/7 does an amazing job, and it’s a privilege to be part of their lineup. Whether you’re driving home, cooking dinner, or just chilling out, it’s a great way to spend a couple of hours.

While you’re at it, check out Pure Media’s magazine. It’s a free monthly download packed with inspiring articles that I think you’ll enjoy. Grab it here: puremediafamily.com/magazine. They cover all sorts—faith, family, culture—and it’s a brilliant resource to keep you encouraged. One piece that stood out recently was an article on finding joy in tough seasons. It featured a story about a family navigating loss with faith and resilience, woven with practical tips and Scripture. It hit home for me, especially with the busyness I’ve been feeling, and I reckon it’d resonate with many of you too. The magazine’s got a knack for blending real-life experiences with hope, so it’s well worth a look.

I won’t promise I’ll be back writing loads soon—this job’s keeping me busy, and I’m still figuring out how to carve out time for everything. But I’ll definitely try. These posts are a way to process what’s on my heart and share it with you, and I don’t want that to slip away completely. Thanks for your support—it means a lot to know you’re reading, even when I’ve been quieter. You’re all in my prayers, and I’m grateful for this little community we’ve got here. Keep seeking Him, and maybe I’ll catch you on the radio or in the comments sometime soon!
