‘DEAD SEA SYNDROME’
We were created to be relational and relationships that work calls for giving and receiving. If you refuse to give, you will not create room to receive. Just like the Dead Sea, you will die without the ability to produce anything. A balance must be maintained in your giving, but our lives should always be a revolving door…

EMOTIONS
Temporary or Permanent? Valentine’s day is almost two weeks in the past. It was a quiet one for me maybe because I’ve come to realise that the expression of love should be an every-day occurrence. I’m not knocking those of you who have celebrated in big or small ways. It’s your prerogative to do so, and I hope…

GREAT EXPECTATIONS VS REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS
It’s a couple days away from Valentine’s Day and I had the occasion to speak with one of my sister-friends who has Great Expectations for the day. She is a hopeless romantic and therefore would like for her husband to pull out all the stops plus the ‘red carpet’, in celebrating her and the day. She has…

BE STILL!
A command and not an option, if you want to successfully navigate your life. Recently something happened to me that disrupted my life in a way that made me angry. I had plans, exciting plans and they had to come to a screeching halt because there was no way around the disruptor. I was very unhappy, and…

FERTILISER
Growth not Waste Organic fertiliser (the one that we collect from the animals in the field) does not smell good, but it’s just what a plant needs to grow. Sometimes when we are bombarded with negative words or vibes, we need to, instead of responding in kind, express gratitude to the person responsible for shovelling…

FOCUS
So, I have this new project that I’m working on, and delivery is in a couple of weeks. Everything is coming together nicely. I’m pumped and most of all I’m focused. This project takes advantage of my natural talent and creativity. It’s been taking up my head space and physical energy as well. Then bam! Out of nowhere I was…

PROVERBS
I’ve been reading the Book of Proverbs as part of my reading-through-the-Bible-in-a-year challenge, and I’ve marveled at the truth of the phrase, “reading is fundamental”. Outside of direct personal revelation from God, wisdom was handed to us in the pages of the Book of Proverbs. In order to receive it, one would have to dedicate himself/herself…

WHO ARE YOU CALLING ‘HOAR’ HEAD?
Grey is the new black I walked out of the sanctuary, and just as I anticipated someone asked me, “So what’s going on with your head/hair?” “What are you doing?” I turned right around to an attractively attired sister in the Lord that I regard as my friend and said, “I’m letting my hair grow exactly as…

RELATIONSHIP WITH BENEFITS
Man of God (MOG), God is watching you and you are found wanting. Why do you think he created you? Why do you think he created you first and then formed woman out of you? Think about that for a minute. (And for the women or others who would like to come for me because…
