In the midst of trial, disappointments and my own failings, that still small voice in my heart testifies ‘I am my beloved’s and He is mine’. I am assurred that... Continue Reading →

Prayer doesn’t change God
My prayer, meditation and contemplation does not change God's mind. It changes mine. God is Clear, Consistent, Serene and Self-Sufficient. There is nothing to change, re-align or take on-board. He is Complete and One. God cannot be manipulated, nor does He need to be. God is not some distant harsh deity that needs to be... Continue Reading →
Embracing Autism
Last weekend was world Autism Awareness Day and we marked it in this household. Actually, we celebrated it with another household, an amazing family that had invited us over to a celebration BBQ. Like us, they have an autistic child and wanted to make a celebration of the day. And what a celebration we had!... Continue Reading →
All you need is present TODAY.
Sometimes we worry and fret about that 'missing piece' in our thinking and perspective. What should I be taking into account that I haven't yet? What should I be doing, or ought to have done by now to stay on track? What I'm I missing? Stop. Pause. Breathe. Have faith, that the world is exactly... Continue Reading →
Love should be the only tie that binds
A note to the 'congregation of Believers' otherwise known as 'Church', 'Club', 'Community', 'Fellowship', 'Temple', 'Ashram' etc The tie that binds is defined as the shared belief or other factor that links people together.

Affirmation – an adoption story
Those seemingly random questions that kids fire at us from time to time, serve as windows into their world. Their questions allow us a glimpse of what they might be processing in those little minds. They are nuggets of insight into what really matters to our kids at a point in time. As I lay... Continue Reading →
The lone journey
Some steps need to be taken alone. It’s the only way to really figure out where you need to go and who you need to be. @MotivationApp This quote from @motivationapp is so true. It has been a hallmark of my journey to date. Have you ever felt lonely in a room full of people?... Continue Reading →

The unholy alliance of our ego, body and mind makes us less than whole. The ego body mind alliance is self referencing, self informing and self reinforcing. At its core, this unholy alliance is one built upon and sustained by illusion, insecurity and fear. To restore balance and wholeness, the unholy alliance of ego, body... Continue Reading →

Gazing upon the face of my 2-year old self, I wondered at the experiences that have shaped who, what and how I process... Continue Reading →

Living life on purpose
Living life on purpose is more easily said than done, but it is not impossible. I believe that it is the Father's intention and destiny for each of his own. It is triggered by a heart hungry for meaning, and involves letting go and allowing ourselves to be led through the process of the Father’s... Continue Reading →
Authentic living
I asked God to deliver me from my fears. He did not. Instead, God delivered me from the fear of my fears. In that moment, I found myself. I found freedom. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.John... Continue Reading →
