Moving is hard. There is so much stuff you need to organise and to get done within a short space of time. It’s really stressful. How do I know? Well, I just moved interstate for a new job. I don’t know if it was the right decision to move, but I made the move to…
There are days where I feel like I am not where I am supposed to be. Inevitably, there are moments where I feel stuck. Dealing with the brokenness in my heart and the emptiness that I carry around. I also know that no matter the places I have gone or the depths I am in…
There were two very important trees in the garden of Eden. The first was the root of all evil, both literally and figuratively, AKA the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The second- its far less talked about counterpart -was The Tree of Life. The first takes centre stage, not only in Genesis…
After my great-grandmother died, those sorting through her possessions were surprised to find a little book full of writing. The contents of the little book were even more interesting- it was, rather than the expected recipe book or a personal diary, it was something even more fascinating, a log. It was a meticulously kept list…
As the years pass, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018– and now 2019!! I have begun to realise the reality that this world is not my home. The saying “I’m just passing through” really hits home… I feel now more than ever the calling that I have been given to reveal the endless love of God to…
How is it that so many people manage to be devoted and consistent with their worship of Jesus, while I fail so often? My devotional life is reminiscent of how I try to breathe quietly while walking upstairs so that my friends don’t realise how unfit I am. I want to appear as though I…
Regardless of the pivotal role it plays in our lives we often unknowingly think of grace as something that we should avoid, hear me out. We as humans tend to strive for perfection, we don’t want to taint our reputation even though we all have and will continue to fall short of the glory of…
At the end of last year, I decided that I was very much over my sweet tooth! After I ate junk food, I felt sluggish, slow and tired, none of which felt particularly good. ‘Enough was enough!’ As I tucked into my last bowl of ice-cream I could not help but think of how much…
God is the breath of life and breathing is key to our health – we must breathe to live, and right from a baby’s first breath, God is there. After months growing within the warmth and safety of its mother, a baby who endures hours of labour while being squished and squeezed is born. Despite…
I’ve heard it said that when Jesus died on the cross, Satan thought that he’d beaten God. It wasn’t until three days later when Jesus rose that it was clear that God had won. This never quite made sense to me. Romans 6:23 says that the “wages of sin is death” so when Jesus died,…
