    Tuscan is home!

    NiallJuly 14, 2008

    Well, some good news! Tuscan came through the surgery and the recovery and is back home with Tim and Jay and improving daily after the trauma of surgery on his heart. If you’re on Facebook and know Tim and Jay - go check the pics out of the little guy!

    God is great and I thank and praise him for the answers of the many prayers for Tuscan’s surgery and health!

    Don’t aim - Just Rain.

    NiallMay 25, 2008

    I was reading the comments on a Facebook Group about a new book due to come out soon called “SIN BOLDLY: A Field Guide for Grace” by Cathleen Falsani in which she invites people to comment about their experiences of Grace. One comment in particular captured my heart by a guy called Larry.

    And then my wandering mind goes to Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount where he said it rains on the just and the unjust.

    I’m a dope, I want to save my nurture for people I think are deserving. Jesus, meanwhile, says to give your love like a dumb cloud. Don’t aim… just rain.

    I know for me - it took someone showing Grace to me for the word to really become more than a word that we talk about. I knew about Grace from growing up in the church but it was a mate of mine who showed me Grace - and now I feel I understand it more and more - in fact I don’t think I will ever really fully comprehend the Grace that Jesus talks about but for my time here on this planet I can show Grace, and in Larry’s words I won’t aim - I’ll rain Grace over everyone.

    I look forward to reading Cathleen’s book too!

    When did you learn about Grace - and not just the Sunday School or theological definition, I mean understand what it means in your life and heart?
