Being Still


Last night I was thinking of being still. I opened a book that I haven’t used in years to write some notes, and right there in front of me were some notes I had made from a long time ago. Exactly what I was thinking, ‘Be still and know that I am God’. 

It was my thoughts exactly echoed back to me. A tiny message to hold on to and focus on. In the midst of turmoil, strife, negativity, cravings and the other earth battles we face, sometimes just to be still, let go and allow God his will be done.

The creator of heaven, earth, land and sky breathed life into us. We have power on our side.

I Will

I will 

I will be still

And know that Thou 

Art God 

I will be still 

And know that I am

Your child 

I will be still

And listen for your gentle

Quiet voice

I will be still

And wait for Thee 

To lead 

Open the way for me

Oh Lord 

I pray 

Be Still 

“And in the quietness

Hear my voice

Be comforted

For I will never leave you

Nor will I forsake you

You are my child

I will protect you and

Love you forever”

Little by Little 

I take back my own power

Growing slowly in strength 

I am dreaming new dreams 

Until a new dawn appears 

And I will be ready 

Back to the Eighties 

One of my favorites from when I was like ten, and running around streets of Joburg. It was a hit in South Africa.

Wishes, Hope and Dreams


Catch my dreams

Wherever they may float

Catch my wishes 

Wherever they may land 

Catch my hopes 

Wherever they are blown

Keep them safe

While I sleep at night 

So when I open my eyes 

My wishes and dreams

Hopefully come true

Feather 

A soft, delicate feather wafted down from above, catching my eye, and before I could touch it, the feather was gone.

Encouraged


It is impossible not to feel encouraged and hopeful when surrounded by so much love. Yesterday, having a bad day and being tired at work, a colleague offered assistance via another colleague who saw that I was struggling with something, and my manager offered for me to go home early. And then So many kind, wonderful, caring, amazing friends here at WordPress, I can feel the love and care, and it is so much needed and appreciated. And it has definitely encouraged.

So to all my friends, near or far, thank you! You mean the world 💕🌸💕
