Deliberate Kindness
I had an interesting conversation with someone recently about the difference between ‘being kind’, and ‘being nice’. As a passing thought, we often put both those things in the same box; for example, we tell our children to be nice and to play nicely, and even as adults, we are expected to be nice to … Read More
The Cost of Freedom
The 25th of April, Anzac Day, marks the anniversary of the landing of the Australian and New Zealand troops on the shores of Gallipoli in Turkey, in 1915.

‘Australia Day’, or ‘Invasion Day’?
Australia Day, the 26th of January, is a controversial date but the reason behind the celebration isn’t what a lot of people think. There is so much to unpack here, so I hope you will take the time to read this.
The Weight of Conviction and the Breath of Life
I don’t know many people who love the feeling of conviction, especially when it’s heavy and makes you buckle at the knees.
Here are some thoughts about the weight of conviction and the breath of life- the divine breath of God and His Word.
Here’s the Thing:
Okay, so here’s the thing, the biggest ‘confession post’ yet: I have the truth, and you need to know it.
The main reason I haven’t done any posts lately is honestly that I have had so many things to say, and I have not known how to begin. There are so many things that I want to tell you… not only things I want to tell you but things that you really need to know. It might take me a while to get them all out to you, but we have to start somewhere, and where better to start than with the basic truth?
What are You bringing into 2020?
It’s that time again… not just the ending of another year, but the end of another decade. This is a time where many people are making their new year resolutions, and talking about fresh starts.
2019 has been a year of ups and downs, and tonight, I’m considering what I am going to take with me into not only 2020, but this new decade, and the future. I wonder what you want to take with you? What are some things you’d like to leave behind? Here are a few things to think about:

R U OK?
Whether you call it R U OK Day, or Suicide Prevention Day, this is it. The 12th of September. This is the day where we want to message or call every single one of our friends and family and ask them, are you okay? How are you doing? How is life, and are you really … Read More
If you died tonight, would you be satisfied?
Often people are living life working towards big goals, some are completing bucket lists, others are living in the moment, some people are working towards saving to have a good retirement, and there are some who are great at procrastination, too. But, to put things into perspective, ask yourself this question: If you died tonight, … Read More

To Hold the Grudge, or Let it Go?
Dear Friends,
It’s been a while since I have posted here, and I apologise for that.
This is something that has been in both my mind and my drafts folder for some months now, and I hope that someone is encouraged and able to find peace instead of bitterness the way I did.
