It comes as no surprise this morning that the scripture at the bottom of my journal reads “ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you” James 4:8. I think many of us found ourselves in a season where we felt so far from God although we know He is the one who sticks closer than a brother. I don’t know about you but for me this season involved a lot of transition. From different levels of lockdown, from church and businesses closing down, to it opening up again, all almost as though it needed to interrupt our daily lives to such an extent that we are forced to do things differently.
Undefined Love
They say you glow differently once you have someone that is taking care of your heart, That you indulge and reminisce in memories that was collected from the start, That your smile is pure and your effervescent personality is unleashed, But for me no, that’s a level of love that I’ve never reached.
The Lost Essence of Society
The souls of this generation are no longer pure,
You’ve indoctrinated our minds with fake impressions and lies that we can no longer endure.
It’s to a point where we hide our depression and sorrow behind boundless nights of outrageous drinking,
Can’t you see... can’t you see that we are sinking?
We are sinking so deep that people are being loved for being fake and people are being hated for being
real,

My dearest one
Pain that I have been recently feeling,
All that I wish for is complete happiness and an immense amount of healing,
I don’t know why, but as I look into blank space above me is the ceiling,
I compare my pain to quicksand as I’ve sunken to a boundless amount of believing.
My dearest one I really can’t compare,
Maybe I’ve met you already, but for now all I feel is despair,
Overwhelmed with emotional madness so let me clear the air,
A Tribute to True Beauty
In each photograph she takes she may not feel beautiful nor perfect,
But her imperfections and resiliency is what makes her worth it.
She utilises each and every day as a gift and journey which emphasizes her importance of visionary,
She may not be what you desire, but surely she is a woman with class at an extreme level of consistency.
She was beautiful, but not like those women in the magazines which is far from their unique femininity,
She was beautiful because she had the ability to make other women smile and assist them in revealing
their true beauty.
She kills her inner critic and silences all the hatred,
She is as beautiful as the rose in June as she remains purely sacred.
She speaks kindly to her inner self because she knows that she is doing just fine,
She does not isolate her weaknesses, but rather embraces them as perfectionist beauty takes time.
Her smile hides more pain than you can even imagine,
Don’t let it take you out.
If you are like me, you at times struggle to understand why certain things happen
and why we never get the answers to certain questions. This is a make or break kind
of season, filled with uncertainties, loss, agony and countless “Why’s “, in this
season you find it hard to imagine that life can possibly work in your favour.
Give it a shot one more time, but this time don’t exclude God
Lately I have been caught between my purpose and the methods the world is using to make living out your purpose look effortless.
I am a creative by heart and I have so many dreams inside my heart, so many visions that I can’t wait to bring to life but less than two months ago I realized the reason I am so exhausted and stuck with frustration is because I didn’t include God in my plans.
What are you afraid of?
A few days ago I shared my fear of driving with a dear friend, I never understood where this fear came from but when I started my driving lessons I was so afraid of accelerating, afraid that I would get into an accident, afraid that I would go around a corner too fast or that I would simply lose control of the vehicle.
It got so bad that I would lay awake at night and be fearful of when I would have to drive on my own.
A handbag is an essential part of a women's life, one that carries her most valuable possessions. The outside often a depiction of her favourite colour or image, and the style often matching her outfit.I can imagine that she wishes at times her life was the very depiction of what is seen on the outer part of her handbag, but more than the outer part, it’s what is found on the inside of the handbag that matters most.
Your True Identity
You have no idea how where you are right now, is preparing you for your next season.
I have to be honest, when I first started my job as a receptionist at my current employer I thought it was going to be smooth sailing; just do what I had to, be comfortable and wait until the Lord decides it is time for me to walk into my destiny and purpose. That was the biggest misconception ever because without stretching and growth we cannot become better people at all.
But I Am Not Perfect
They say the first step to recovery is acceptance. Although I haven’t fully returned to a normal state of mind yet, at least now I know when I am being cuckoo-for-cocoa-puffs. I used to suffer a lot from perfectionism and if things didn’t go as planned, I would throw the proverbial baby out with the bath water, so to speak. A case in point, I once failed one module out three and I was so inconsolable that I decided to quit the whole course, regardless of the three distinctions.
