Living Water
My husband and I like to go walking. We usually do short walks on account of the kids. Sometimes they are not as excited about the prospect as their parents are. On a recent walk we encountered a small waterfall. The water gently fell down the mountain side into the stream. As I reflect on…

Lilies of the field
As I started this new year, I kept on feeling prompted to think about the scripture about the lilies of the field. In Matthew 6:28 – 29 Jesus said to the people that they didn’t need to worry about their clothing, but that they should look at the lilies of the field which blooms without…

Abundance
When we came to New Zealand in 2020, I didn’t know what my purpose was. I distinctly remember feeling the Holy Spirit prompting me to write. I began writing a book about my life starting with writing my name and the meaning thereof, as a starting point to simply start. As I wrote about my…

Not abandoned
I like watching short videos about abandoned houses. I find it interesting to see that many are abandoned while the furniture is still inside. It gives you a glimpse into the lives of the occupants. I like to guess why they have left so many things behind. As I watched one such video, I felt…

Under His wings
Have you ever had a dream of doing something so big that it brought tears to your eyes? Dreaming of reaching possibly the highest goal you have ever set before yourself, but humbled because you know that on your own you cannot achieve it? Fiercely knowing that you are called to do it, but afraid…

Fearless
Being without fear seemed impossible to me at one stage of my life. I was afraid of so many things, that I even dreamt up some extras. I’m not going to share all those fears with you, as I think we all have at some time or another went through fearful situations. But I would…

There’s a song in your heart
In 2021 I wrote a song called “There’s a song in your heart”. I was thinking of ways to inspire my piano students to start composing their own melodies and it just popped inside my head. As I was praying about what my next post should be, the song came to my mind again. Not…

On the sideline
Definitions of being sidelined are: “cause (a player) to be unable to play in a team or game” and “remove from the centre of activity or attention; place in a less influential position.” (reference: Oxford Languages) We are called to work together as one body of Christ. In 1 Corinthians 12:12 it says, “The human…
