Join me on this journey

Hi and welcome to my writing adventure

I started out with a qualification in finance, but soon realised that though detailed orientated, it was the word kind. I am fascinated by the written word and driven by the Word of God.

As a truth seeker, both have stood me in good stead. Writing has provided a way for me to clarify my thinking and get to the other side of some seriously muddled thoughts addled and stymied by a paralysis of analysis. Journalling has been a life saver as I employed it as a key resource to get me through the various crises and mishaps of life.

I graduated with a major in Communication Science later on, then proceeded to work for various publishers, Writing has obviously stood me in good stead. I am determined to develop both my language proficiency and related skills, all the while delighting in and relishing the beauty and power that words have as they conjure up memories, ignite emotions, convey thought and evoke the senses.

Please join me on this relevantly personal, somewhat vulnerable journey that I have embarked upon. I plan to write about facets of communication and confidence as well as about the importance of balance and boundaries.

Most of the content will be informed from a wealth of lived experiences, gleanings from experts as sought over the years and the resultant musings garnered over the decades and I am so looking forward to engaging with you. My goal is to deliver content that is high quality, verifiable, inspiring, motivational and of value to you.

How it is going …


Believe

“I prayed, the message in my heart was always to trust God.  To trust that He would reward me for the effort I put in and that there would be fruit to show for it somehow.”

Inform

“It is why I also feel compelled to share this with other women. It is why I want to tell my story so that perhaps another woman struggling out there will hear it and have an inkling of what is going on and get the necessary help.”

Persevere

“On this journey of discovery, my meandering path led me to Julia Cameron’s books with Walking in this World of singular importance. I also read some of the classics of English literature in my endeavour to grow and grasp the nuances of the English language.”

Success is a journey, not a destination. The doing is often more important than the outcome.

The Good Shepherd

Psalm 23 country
A soft spot for shepherds
A Shepherd for modern times
The Shepherd loves his sheep
Along the right paths
Sheep listen to the Shepherd’s voice
Your rod comforts me
Why did you doubt?
Faith for the ages
Old-fashioned and out of style?
Master of the universe
Before you go rushing off in faith
What did Nathanael know about the Messiah?
Preventing a crash
Do not follow personality
Simple enough
Hiding in the garden
Not a cookie-cutter faith
Faith that withstands the test
Here I am, don’t send me
Seasons change, praise God
Signing off perfection

Israel

Pray for peace
Cake, coffee and a chant
Land flowing with milk and honey
When first we practice to deceive
First-born sons, barren wives and favouritism
Not Charlie’s but definitely a ladder full of angels
A rolling stone with a domino effect
Deceit, disobedience and death
Judging others
Even kings reap what they sow
The fruition of God’s divine plan
An arresting wrestling match
Done and dusted in Israel for ever
A rose by any other name
Playing favourites backfires

The rich God of Israel
The promise is for you …
Despite everything, hope for us all
Jerusalem anew

Spread the love
