Faith Works
Since 1983 when Jesus made himself know to me, he has taught me through natural things I have seen in Creation, rather like parables, as well as from The Bible. This is a selection that I hope may encourage you.

Authority from Jesus
Created in 2013
I have been considering how the disciples were able to heal the sick and drive out demons before they had received the Holy Spirit. The answer is simple: Jesus gave them his authority. When he sent them out in his name, he literally meant that they could act in the same way he could. Jesus said that all authority in heaven and earth had been given to him. He was sending his disciples out in exactly the same way the Father had sent him out. (c) Copyright Peter Wrigley 2013
Assurance: One Word from God can change us

Bat's Head: stillness when all around is turmoil
Created in 2013
Bat’s Head, near Durdle Dor, Dorset: Stillness when all around is in turmoil. I was walking along the Dorset cliffs on a perfect October day: sunny, warm and windy, windy enough to knock me sideways once or twice. Clear skies gave me long views down the coast. From the top of a headland called White Nothe, I looked down onto Bat’s Head, a small and narrow promontory projecting out into the sea and into the full force of the south-west winds.
