2 Threaded Spouts
I watched the tiniest news segment tonight where a man went on air purely for the purpose of making fun of Taylor Swift fans.
And it really bugged me.
Not because I’m a Swiftie by any means.
But because it’s yet another example of men ridiculing and minimising female joy.
Leave women alone.

Don't be surprised
when the gaps you see in the way people are being ministered to
become the gaps you are called to fill.
When a great crowd followed Jesus and became hungry, he didn't call down manna from Heaven.
He said to his disciples, 'YOU give them something to eat'.

For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his
shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counsellor,
Mighty God,
Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.

I have a theory. I think the ADHD Spoutans tend to have more spouts than others. In a way, it's like a peek into their brains and I dig it.

The feminine urge to pick a fight with my dad at Christmas because it's never a better time to smash the patriarchy than after a glass of red wine and some mince pies.

It's baffling that we buy Quality Street for Christmas
knowing full well that it’s only 40% of the tin that we actually want.
We know that by the 3rd of Jan, we'll be sifting through piles of orange creams and toffee pennies for a rogue caramel cup.
Nevertheless, we persist.

Did I fall into temptation and indulge in buying presents for myself in the many Black Friday sales this year?
Yes.
Do I now also
at this very late stage in December
have my entire family to still buy Christmas presents for?
Also yes.
Yes.

I wish there were a better word than 'church hurt'.
Because if a group of people have caused so much pain and heartache that it's caused you to waver or even walk away from your faith completely
I would question whether that was even Jesus' church you were in to begin with.

Today I’m thankful for the slow ‘chipping away’ process of unlearning generational body shame.
For feeling free to share photos of culinary delights and decadent desserts.
Without self consciousness.
Without inhibition.
Without fear of judgement.
Just pure sensory delight.

Healthcare and medicine are getting crazily expensive.
When people take time to educate you on things you can do to prevent illnesses, take it seriously, please.
You can't afford to spend the money you're supposed to use to enjoy life fighting illnesses and diseases.

For everything God created is good,
and nothing is to be rejected
if it is received with thanksgiving,
because it is sanctified
by the power of God and prayer.

No theology
No doctrine
No ministry
No denomination
Should exist in Christianity
If its heart and soul is not centred on the
overwhelming,
never failing,
reckless love of God.
