Never realised that God could still use a person while they are in pain. I guess I figured His will is only for those who are trending, slaying or in a good space mentally, emotionally and spirituality. My perception changed when Ps. Vera (the lady God sends emergency whatsapps when I “wander off”), asked meContinue reading “Reflections: Purpose during Pain”

Reflections: All Comes Down To Love
It would be an injustice if I didn’t acknowledge the role sisterhood plays in shaping great women. If you have been following my blog you will note a point where I once did such. But, there are two women who have shown me that sisterhood transcends differences in character. First there is Tshego Machaba whoContinue reading “Reflections: All Comes Down To Love”
Sermon Time: Nothing Wasted
I have read or listened to Matthew 14:13-21 quite a few times and only today I got my AHA! moment. The scripture was more than just the miracle of multiplied fish and bread loaves. Its the process.. So Jesus was told by the disciples there was lack of food. He decided to work with whatContinue reading “Sermon Time: Nothing Wasted”
Sermon Time: Misunderstood
After reading Luke 18:34 I realised how like Jesus, most of my life is not understood by those I love. I now realize that it’s because it is hidden from them. I have spent most of my life trying to explain myself and since I realised most people don’t get me, I would sadly justContinue reading “Sermon Time: Misunderstood”
Sermon Time – STOP the cycle
Yep! You guessed right. I just love the Old Testament. It’s like those stories were written for my spirit! Some notes I jotted from reading Ezekiel: Ezekiel Chapter 16 V3: Origins – it is VERY important to know where you come from. Some of us are stuck with fruits of seeds we didn’t sow andContinue reading “Sermon Time – STOP the cycle”
Reflections: Forgive and Heal..
Ever had those moments when you feel fragile all the time? Its like a fly passing could easily set you off into a darkness of grief? Well, this morning was one of those moments. I can’t even remember the actual topic between my younger sister and I. I remember feeling this choking, trying to holdContinue reading “Reflections: Forgive and Heal..”
The Father’s Love: LOVE
So I’ve always wondered why Job said “thou He slay me, yet shall I trust in Him”. I was very confused about continuing to trust God when all I seem to be experiencing is pain and suffering. Recently it just felt like God forgot about what He promised me or simply didn’t care. I amContinue reading “The Father’s Love: LOVE”
The Father’s Love: Arise and Live!
Ezekiel 16:6 V6: Live – remember those times when life itself had no meaning? When the pain was so unbearable you desired death? When you cried from the depths of your soul? The bleeding spoken of in scripture may have been self-induced due to foolishness (everyone has had a run in with foolishness) or inflictedContinue reading “The Father’s Love: Arise and Live!”
The Father’s Love: Grace
Genesis 38:6-30 V6-11:1. Tamar was chosen by Judah2. Tamar’s purpose was clear by now – raise up a heir for Er, Judah’s firstborn3. Er and Onan are the ones whose wickedness is mentioned that led to their death. It is interesting though that Judah blames Tamar for their deaths hence he sent her home toContinue reading “The Father’s Love: Grace”
The Father’s Love: Criteria
Up until I accepted God’s love I really had no criteria of who qualifies to have access to my heart. I was foolish. I now realise how much pain I exposed myself to for letting people who just meant no good into my heart. I forgot to guard my heart. What I have learned thoughContinue reading “The Father’s Love: Criteria”
