The reason we came to India
Sunday. St Patrick’s day and my birthday. When we planned this trip and we realised that it would coincide with my birthday I thought what a place full of wonder to end my 40th year in. My lovely sons where less than enamoured by the fact that I wouldn’t be celebrating my birthday with them,Continue reading “The reason we came to India”
India part II
Apologies to begin. I have been attempting a daily blog but my first world problems of intermittent wifi and a fight with Evernote that I did not win mean that I have failed. We arrived mid morning on Thursday to our hotel which every day is becoming more like the one from the Best ExoticContinue reading “India part II”
Day 1 travelling to India
In the queue at security in Abu Dhabi Jason got chatting as he always does to the man next to us. Turns out he’s English been living here for 3 Yrs on his way home and then on to another job oversees. In the short 5 mins we were talking he drops in the conversationContinue reading “Day 1 travelling to India”
India here I come
We leave for India first thing Wednesday morning. I’m almost packed. The laundry for all 5 of us is close to complete. Tomorrow’s to-do list is standing by. Passports. Visas. Money & cards. Insect repellent. Innoculations. Talks almost there. And then this morning I realised that I had omitted a very important detail – weContinue reading “India here I come”
I love how our lives and loves are intertwined

In February I have watched and observed how the people that I’m joined to have cared and loved each other and extended that toContinue reading “I love how our lives and loves are intertwined”
My ‘one thing’ for 2013
My  husband did a great talk at the start of January which in a nutshell challenged us to choose a ‘one thing’ to spend our lives on this year.  I loved the text from Nehemiah 6:3 “I’m doing a great work, I can’t come down” I was very challenged to determine what my ‘one thing’Continue reading “My ‘one thing’ for 2013”
this sheep hears her Shepherd
I believe that God still chooses to speak to us today. I just want to put that out there. God speaks to us today through His Holy Spirit. God speaks from the inside of us in whispers, shouts, pictures, impressions, feelings, dreams, visions, sensations, smells, tastes, words, and more. Each as individual as the personContinue reading “this sheep hears her Shepherd”
why write?
This blog was born because I wanted to be a more disciplined and frequent writer. Â The jury’s still out on how I’m doing so far. Â I find myself making excuses. Â Just how disciplined is disciplined? And how do you define frequent? Â More excuses abound, I have written 2 talks in the past 3 weeks soContinue reading “why write?”
intentions pt II
 There’s a flip side to intention. We all know it, feel it, fall into it, fall foul of it.  This intention that I speak of is the intent of the heart behind a word, an action, a comment, a deliberate act.  I’m pretty sure you have at least once been offended by something orContinue reading “intentions pt II”
