The other day I made this comment on someone else’s Social Media in response to a post they did regarding Feminism and Equality. I feel like it needs to be reposted here. It’s truly what I believe about ALL social issues that are prevalent in today’s world! “Listening, really listening to others – to their stories, their experiences, where they have come from and what they believe in – is what it all boils down to, it’s what really matters....

I get to pick her up from school on Wednesday afternoon and now that I realised my error, I can make it right.

(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog) As I was sitting alone in my quiet house the other day, a thought struck me that I can’t seem to shake. I have found myself telling a few people over the past few days too and I’m kind of surprising myself. The more I think on it, the more it rings true. I am really enjoying motherhood at the moment. Okay, so here’s the thing – and I’m gonna be real honest right...

(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog) Have you even experienced a moment in time, as you are going about your business, when you hear a God-whisper telling you “This, my child. It is for this that you were born!“? Oh, how I have longed for this my whole life. I have lived to please others and to tick all the boxes. I have sought perfection with vehement effort and I have failed so miserably, so many times. I have primmed and...

(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog & Hillsong Creative Devotionals) “Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours, O Lord, and this is your kingdom. We adore you as the one who is over all things.” 1 Chronicles 29:11 (NLT) What do you think when you hear the word adore? What does adore mean to you? To me, adore means to stop and surrender every...

No matter what is going on in your life; no matter what you've done, who you are, what you believe about yourself, what your circumstances look like, you are LOVED with an agape love! A love that sees beyond boundaries, race, identity, circumstance. You are loved despite yourself and because of yourself.

Take a walk with me… imagine we’re standing in a forest of trees. Oaks, pines and cedars surround us, standing so tall and majestic. Trunks and branches reaching for the sky. Leaves flutter and sway in the breeze. Dry stalks, remnants of life and colour, crunching beneath our feet as we traverse amongst the greatness of God, expressed in nature surrounding us. What are you feeling in this moment?

God reminded me that my children are only mine for a period of time and that I get the privilege and joy of loving them and the angst and heartache of moulding them into becoming all that God has called them to be. I'm just borrowing them for their formative years and then they get to go out into this big wide world on their own as wonderfully unique individuals...

(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog) Yesterday morning, I saw something that completely shook me. Let me preface this little story with a bit of a disclaimer. For those of you that know me, you know that I am not necessarily an animal lover. I eat meat (lots of it) and I wouldn’t call myself an advocate for animals rights by any stretch of the imagination. I also have participated and enjoyed a bit of hunting in my time too....
