Faith for Fear
Easy to say. Right? But when you’re an OCD and ORGANISED and SYSTEMATIC person like I can be then even Fear is an enemy. Why fear and not faith? Mmmmmm……….I suppose it’s the next thing to feel? When I recognise fear for what it truly is then I should stay clear of it. But why […]

Change
I do NOT enjoy CHANGE. I do not always cope with it. Good change, bad change and CHANGE that is created by disappointment is probably the worst kind of change. Just like the weather some change cannot be controlled. I write this while I’m experiencing CHANGE. This is a different kind of CHANGE. This is […]

The Way I Feel
The way I’ve been feeling is what “they” say I shouldn’t say. I shouldn’t go by my feelings is what “they” say. So what may I ask is this that beats at me with a stick? This sense of isolation that makes me weak? The way I’m discarded as one who doesn’t “need” The way […]

The Mask
There’s much more than a virus out there. There’s a plague of dis humanity, hopelessness, expressionless, disconnection, isolation, and the plague of fear. Watching children at play wearing masks is the saddest thing to see. I asked a young child in the mall this morning: “why do you wear a mask?”. He’s reply was simple: […]

You are UNIQUE & ORIGINAL
We spend FAR too much time scrolling through other peoples feeds. And these feeds, feed our soul and heart with unworthiness, despondency, depression, lack of living, comparison, compromise, unhealthy perceptions of who we are and who we should be. The desire to have and be like somebody else’s documented life is severe in many of […]

Be…..Still
Psalm 46:10 ‘Be still, and KNOW that I am God.’ In the busyness of life, it’s good to take a moment to see things in perspective. When I stop. I breathe much better. I imagine that I am running for a while. My breathing gets heavier and more harder. If I stop suddenly, then I […]

From Process to Purpose
For every process there is an ingredient. Imagine a recipe for baking or cooking. Every recipe requires ingredients. Without ingredients there is no recipe. Process can be a tiring, challenging or even rewarding thing in any situation. It is not easy to allow processes. Yet, when we do allow and persevere then the process is […]

The gap of time
I am tired…… yes I said it. Tired of waiting. Waiting for it to be different. It’s been years now. This waiting is making me want to stop what I’m doing and just take a shortcut in life. A detour that will take me to a tropical island where I’ll be watching sunrises and sunsets […]

Time……..vs……..Today
“‘I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken’” (Acts 2:25). It’s been a while and SO much has happened! 2nd January Covid positive. Mood negative. Time…it has gone. While going through the waves and torrents of covid including mental, physical and even Spiritual […]

Why should I?
Listening to the rain falling outside my window and seeing the drops on my window pane I realize with certainty again that something controls this feature. There’s no doubt that these drops are not just arriving Whether on a cold or a muggy day like today, the same drops are falling. Yet the question remains. […]

What is Sacred is what is with me.
My heart was pounding with anxiety with the dread of not knowing what was going to happen next. I’m just trying to fix it. I’m just trying to make it work. In a flash I realise that I had failed. Nothing was fixed. It was not working. I step back. I close my eyes and […]

Your Father
A.W. Tozer said “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” Pain and disappointment have a way of distorting in our minds what is true about Heavenly Father. When life gets hard, the temptation is to believe that God is uninterested and uninvolved. Yet, He is near […]

Happiness
What is my happiness dependant on? How is it valuable or measured? Is what I have for happiness ENOUGH? I am sitting in my favourite “hiding” spot watching the ocean. I jump with excitement as I see seals and dolphins playing in the water. Are they supposed to play together? It seems to me that […]
