Live it well
Start right here
I have been challenged with how quickly life has seemingly resumed back to normal after such a heart-breaking and traumatic week for the nation. We have all been so quick and eager to return back to normal life and resume where we left off, to our lives of comfort. I feel convicted to challenge my…
Spirit of Ubuntu
It is so easy to ride the wave of negativity. To get caught up in negative conversations and become disheartened by the often very negative portrayal of media. This post is a follow on from my previous one. Again, I want to highlight the choice we have during this time. It’s not always easy to…
Facing Goliath
What do you even write in a time like this? How do you even find the words to express yourself? My heart is broken for our beautiful country, for our people. I find myself at a crossroads with my choice of thoughts. I feel a very strong compulsion to turn towards anger, frustration, prejudice and…
Freedom in uncertainty
I’ve been reading Wild at Heart by John Eldredge again for the third or fourth time and much of what I have written in this blog post has been inspired by this book. If we succeed in our pursuit of control and security against all forms of risk, we will land up getting caught in…
Seasons – the mountain top
If you’ve read my previous blogs, you’ll know I’ve spoken before about experiencing seasons in our life and how this is something we all experience just as nature goes through the cycle of its seasons. Seasons are temporary, and each season of life affords us the opportunity to learn lessons about ourselves. I have spoken…
One step at a time

Seasons – the wind and rain
Ecclesiastes 3:1–8 – There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: 2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear…
Past and future, or present?
Navigating the planes of life is not always easy. Our thoughts are at constant war with themselves in our mind and often revolve around thoughts from the past or about the future. How many of us can say we are actively living in the present with our focus and attention being on the now rather…
Defining success
What is success? Where do we gain our definition of success from? Who or what determines our level of success? I think the question, how do we define success, is an important one. We live in a world where many of the beliefs and thoughts are skewed and need major adjusting. It is important not…
Same boat?
We’ve all heard the analogy of us all being in the same boat I’m sure. We’re all in this together right? We are all having the same experience at the moment. I recently made the mistake of speaking about how we are all in the same boat during this time. Yes, I am aware of…
