New season, new mission

Wow its September already, last blogged in June and just being honest didn't accomplish my mission of reintroducing myself to that girl from church (stink) but I'm going to keep an eye out for her just in case she turns up at church again.  Have done some other stuff been through new things like graduation!! wooo! and now in the search for a job, but considering post graduate options because finding work with an Arts graduate has been extremely hard!! NEVERTHELESS its still a degree and represents hard work, time and effort so ptl for what God done for me and will do through me with it :))) gone through some heavy family stuff too but God's helping us work through that too so definitely at a point in my life where I've truly only got my struggles to offer to God and learning that's all He needs :D having a lack of control and being soooo humbled these last few months has taught me and truly is showing me that God is all I have & all I need so gonna keep giving Him glory through this season too!! life's never meant to be easy God is definitely ENOUGH!! BUT yes back to my new mission since I have all of this spare time I've decided to try and empower woman especially all the single ladies ;) created a page on Facebook emphasizing the need to focus on God and being content with ourselves while growing too (hard I know) instead of compromising and settling for less in a relationship for the sake of it! so will be blogging about my journey of singleness real and uncut cause its the unclean and struggles that we go through is where I think God gets the most glory!!

First thought
Being alone doesn't mean you're lonely, felt this a lot in my siblings who are all in relationships apart from me, but realizing that I'm stronger for it, yes I'm the fifth wheel a lot but instead of looking at what I don't have I've learnt to appreciate my independence, and strength God's given me.  At times I feel embarrassed, stink and lonely but at the end of the day they're just feelings they come & go, resting in the fact that God's  always with me and never leaves me (simple but true) its in His word is what gets me through!!

When noone listens

So have felt like I've had the busiest last few months ever.   After mum left had a break then was back to helping out with our young adults ministry at church since we decided on our faith goal of 100 people going to retreat its been really busy.  I've felt so angry, frustrated, tired, annoyed (still am now) at the amount of work that's been happening but no one seems to listen to me.  It's frustrating but I know when I step back the 100 people we take represent the 100 potential God encounters that can take place at our retreat.  When I'm tired, and alone and only doing it with a few faithful people and it's getting too much I get reminded of the verse in Galatians 6:9-10 Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary. 10 So then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.  I'm not going to have this opportunity forever, seasons will ch...

Thank you Mum

Dear Mum, I write this post in honor of you for the woman that you were to me and the impact you continue to have on all of us.  You have been my Nurturer from conception to your passing, your love for us never ceases to amaze me.  Your selflessness is one thing that I know I'm always going to be thankful for.  You were always putting our needs ahead of your own even right to the day you left us.  You were an amazing mother that always went beyond what you needed to some people would say you babied us but that was just you and I'm always going to be grateful for.  The laughs, growlings, hidings and the pickups and dropoffs are things that I'm missing the most. Your loud voice is what I miss a lot of too, and your out of tune singing and me growling you about the way you pronounce cold!! I know where you are and when I eventually do see you again mum I want to make sure I made you proud.  I remember lying with you that night and you telling me how proud yo...

A revelation of love

Last night during quiet time I really felt like the Holy Spirit made me realize the value of God's love for me during the worship song of like incense.  I've always known that God loves me, but I really felt God's presence show me this love through it, and it's stuck with me for most of the day today.  As you can tell this season's so full on.  I'm more appreciative of the time that I just get to sit, sometimes  I do struggle to just sit and do nothing but I know its for my benefit.  So this revelation of love, came fully to me after just feeling tired and overwhelmed by everything retreat.  The good thing about it is that I'm learning that its not my strength but by His spirit could feel His love for me last night and just felt so thankful for everything He's done so far for me and my family.  I've been stressed, worried and anxious and felt so good just resting in Him. Could really feel God's presence last night in the quiet.  Really realize ...
