THE ADVENT SERIES PART 2 – THE WEIGHT OF A YES
Mary had just finished washing her hands when the light changed. Not suddenly. Not violently. It softened first, as though the evening itself leaned closer to listen. The small clay lamp in the corner of the room flickered, its flame stretching upward, then steadying. Shadows along the wall shifted, lengthening and thinning like breath drawn […]
10 WAYS TO DRIVE INTO YOUR GOD-GIVEN DREAM
I wrote this a few years ago, and it still speaks truth today. May it encourage you as you move boldly in pursuit of all God has placed in your heart. Chasing your dream is a lot like driving a car. There is motion. There is direction. There are unexpected turns, breakdowns, and moments when […]
ACCEPTED AND TRANSFORMED: THE LOVE THAT STAYS
The world has taught us a fragile version of love. A kind of affection that waits for us to earn it. Society’s love is often transactional. It is based on appearance, popularity, and perfection. We see it every day. People are embraced when they perform, applauded when they fit a certain mould, and admired when […]
STAY TEACHABLE – THE SECRET INGREDIENT SOME KEEP IGNORING.
One of the most important but most overlooked ingredients for lasting success is a teachable attitude. You can be talented, connected, well-dressed, or even wildly anointed, but if you are not teachable, you are stuck. Arrogance does not announce itself with fireworks. Sometimes it shows up in subtle pride, closed ears, and an unspoken belief […]
THERE’S ROOM FOR YOU….
“Everyone is doing it.” “There are already too many people doing the same thing.” Have you ever caught yourself saying those words? Or maybe you have not said them aloud, but they have whispered their way into your heart every time God stirred a dream inside you. A vision. A calling. An idea that lingered […]
SILVER NOR GOLD… BUT WHAT I DO HAVE
Today, someone’s life might shift because of something simple you choose to give. Often when we think about blessing others, our minds immediately go to money. We worry about what we lack, what we cannot offer. Yet scripture reminds us that some of the most life-changing gifts did not cost a single coin. They cost […]
SPEAK FROM THE MOUNTAIN, NOT THE VALLEY
Some journeys are sacred, especially the ones that break us before they build us. When you are in the middle of such a journey, you’re confused, weary and still searching for the light, it may feel natural to talk about it. Sometimes you feel drawn to others who are also trying to find their way. […]
ARE YOU MISSING WHAT GOD HAS ALREADY SENT?
The Jewish people were waiting. Longing. Desperate for a Messiah who would deliver them. They knew the prophecies, they held the promises, and they were certain that their Saviour would come in grandeur. A king. A ruler. Someone who would overthrow oppression and establish a powerful kingdom on earth. But when Jesus came, He came […]
THE GOD WHO WAITS
“So the Lord waits to be gracious to you; therefore he will rise up to show you mercy. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.” Isaiah 30:18 (NRSV) This is one of the most beautiful invitations in Scripture. It reveals the heart of a God who […]
IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU
There was a time I found myself constantly asking, “ Why me?” Why did it seem like things always went wrong for me? Why did I carry not just my own burdens, but the weight of others too? I noticed every setback and disappointment, and slowly, self-pity crept in. I began to believe that I […]
