We have just returned from a 10 day holiday in Inverloch. It was such an incredible time for us as a family and so very significant for our marriage, family and ministry.
TO BE HONEST.. I am blown away by God. In His love and grace towards us, our holiday was a time of refreshment, reconnection and reflection. And we come home with way more than we bargained for.
God has spoken (yet again) into our hearts and I believe He is STILL speaking. It felt so much easier to hear Him where there was time and space to do nothing but listen and sit. And I don’t want that to stop. So on the last night we were there, I sat up and wrote some things that God has been saying to me… some things I never want to forget.
I want to remember that our house is our home, given by God and I want to put some more love into it.
I want to remember that my parenting of my children is not about me and is a demonstration of the gospel to them.
I want to remember that God is taking me through a process of letting go of things/people very close to my heart and together me and God are making room for something beautiful to arrive in my life. (more on that in the next blog)
I want to remember to hug my kids for longer, pash my hubby more and appreciate life.
I want to remember that God loves me so passionately.
TO BE HONEST… I feel like I will never be the same again.

Ohh I love those revelation moments; I’m all about enjoying my family and appreciating the now; my mum, having lost my dad at the beginning of the year, says it makes you realise you need to appreciate it all; even the hard times, because before you know it, they are gone. It was a recent revelation to me that marriage might not just be here to serve my every fairy tale fantasy, but actually to shape me and to be a blessing and serve someone else! A bit of a different spin on what I had in mind when I signed up, but amazingly liberating, peaceful and so God!! lol xox
