As a boy I always loved the stories of the Bible. In Primary School there was a very dedicated Christian teacher who taught me for three years and her most interesting lesson each day was Scripture. I can thank her for sowing in me the seed of my love of the things of God.

Yet in spite of all my education in things scriptural and regular church attendance over many years, I did not really understand the magnitude of what Jesus Christ had done for me so that I could have a place with Him for eternity. I was well into my 40s. when I accepted Jesus as my personal Saviour. This was the great turning point in my life and I have rejoiced ever since in my walk with Him.

Today, my wife Pat and I live "hectic retirement". We attend the Presbyterian Church where we are both lay preachers and during the week teach Scripture in schools.

Folk who do not know us, when hearing that I am retired say, "But how do you fill your day? Aren't you bored? "

I reply, " There is no chance of that. God has other plans!"
