When was the last time you just stopped and took a moment to breathe, process and enjoy your surroundings?

Conny’s Constant’s – 19th June, 2019
I felt, for a moment, that I was connected directly to God. I was acutely conscious of the life He was breathing into me and aware that this body, this vessel that my soul abides in, is His work of art, His masterpiece.

Let Heaven and Nature Sing!
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?

Another Duck Story…
(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.

I also have participated and enjoyed a bit of hunting in my time too....

Taking a Moment…
I didn't realise how just simply stopping and being can miraculously cause time to slow down too.

Sunset Selah
I think we all need to be reminded of that. In everyday life, it's so easy to be busy, distracted and caught up in everything going on around us. We fail to just 'pause and ponder', to take a moment and reflect.

Vibrant Colours of Spring
I love Spring! The brilliant colours of nature, so lush and full and bursting with life. The glorious hues of red and green as the trees erupt with new life.

Crashing Waves
...I reflected on the amazing power and force that was within the waves. I felt kinda helpless for a second there in the midst of the wave as it crashed over my body. Who would have thought that water, simple salt water would have that much strength to knock a person off their feet...
