Retired, married to Juliet, and a Christian who loves books, writing, music, nature, and photography. I'm exploring prayer and spirituality, using my photos to reflect on God and how faith fits into real life: and I hope to stimulate and encourage others to meet with Jesus.

Change is hard. I’ve been thinking about necessary changes, and I don’t like it much. Our wonderful National Health Service is brilliant, and the staff I have met have been marvellous. But they are saying things like “You will need to change x and y…” On one hand, they say it is to help me … More Big Changes – Look, See, Pray
