Hey I'm so excited that I finally have a proper place that I can share my thoughts with you all! As you know I am a writer but I also do have other interests too and I felt it was the right time to branch out a bit. I will still be writing and blogging (I couldn't stop even if I tried too) and I will try to be more regular with the blogs too. There are so many other things that pique my interest too but I don't want to speak too much as actions speak louder than words but if you care long...
On paper my 2016 felt like a sequel to how 2013 was for me; terrible. It certainly was not one of my best years however I know it was preparing me for my future which has great things in store for me. Everything wasn't bad and I really have experienced highs (Kilimanjaro, my Baptism), and lows (go figure ;) ). I know that I will look back on this year as a foundation year and the year that really brought out characteristics and strength that I never knew I had. We all want the success story but...
Hey everyone! So I decided to strike whilst the iron is hot and blog about my Kilimanjaro experience now. It’s definitely been an interesting one and one that I have enjoyed I’ve learnt so much about myself from this experience that I don’t really know where to begin but here goes…
So recently I was sitting in my room reminiscing about life as you do and I came across a beautiful quote (on the left). The part that jumped out to me was the friendship part. I just felt a strong conviction and God really asking me ‘What kind of friend are you?’. Woah. That caught me wayyy of guard. Like. I would like to think I’m a good friend but then wouldn’t we all? Maybe it’s time we removed the veneers and really take a look at how we’re really like. Try as I might to shake...
Hey everyone! As many of you are aware I put on a charity spoken word event for the 18th of June. I’m happy to say that I raised over £200 for the charity ‘Dig Deep’ which is great news! So. It was the first time that I’d ever planned an event independently before. How did it go? Well, it was interesting to say the least! I’ll leave a few flyers which will further buttress my point:
Hey everyone! I hope you’re good? I’m gonna do some ridiculously last minute promo on an event that I am running this Friday!
Hey everyone! I hope you had a great week? The highlight of my week was going to the ‘Holy Desperation’ Conference this Friday which was hosted by Heather Lindsey and her husband Cornelius. She is the founder of the ‘Pinky Promise movement’ which I am a part of in London and it has really been a blessing to me. You know when you know that a word is just for you and is so apt for the season you are in? Well that was me on Friday evening. I won’t lie, I wasn’t too excited about going...
Hey guys (and girls, just to be politically correct ) something great happened today! Today is the day that I was baptised😀 Of a truth one can say that it is long overdue for me to do it but better late than never. I had an opportunity to do it years ago but I didn’t because I didn’t really know what it actually meant and I didn’t want to just go through the motions of it. Considering the fact that I gave my life to Christ when I was 14 and I’m now 21 it has definitely been a long...
I don’t want to fall in love I want to walk into it A few steps at first and then a marathon ahead I need to enter with my eyes wide open and my heart intact you can’t always rely on those things called feelings. I’ve been looking for love for a long time and my heart is not the best sat nav constantly leading me to dead ends and sometimes sending me over the edge It’s high time I used something else to guide me an ‘upgrade’ of some type forget the heart, I’ll use my mind that...
One of the things I’ve always loved about the Bible is that there are different types of women in it. From wives to prostitutes and much more they are all there and I find it beautiful because it shows that there is nobody that God deems ‘unworthy’ of His love and forgiveness. I was reading Genesis 21:10-14 but as I was reading it something struck out to me. Is it fair to say that Hagar was the first single mother in the Bible? What makes it ‘worse’ is that God seemingly allowed it to...
