wow

Has it really been that long since I have contributed to this page? And so much has happened too!
Ultimately- despite the challenges, for it has been challenging, I can just say that the Lord God- Jesus Christ is GOOD and takes care of me.

that girl

wants to be that girl who the boys want to kiss
wants to dance in the firelight on the sand
in the waves under the night sky
wants to be that girl that laughs from her soul
who invites others to share life with her
wants to be the girl who is not afraid to love
wants to be the girl who is loved

Be Blessed and Relax

I am so blessed. The Lord Jesus has provided me so much this week. Friends have visited me, and shared their lives with me. I have been blessed not only materially, but also with their friendship. What a privilege it is to see into the lives of others. It contains an element of trust. That they would trust me to share with me what is going on in their lives is such a privilege which I do not deserve. I only pray and hope that I would honor their trust, and love them just the same.
Monday I bought a car. It's kind of ironic that as a student I live in one of the nicest areas of the country and then on top of this I have also been provided with the means to buy a car. One that would hopefully last me for a long while yet. Thank you Jesus. I pray that I would be responsible with this car, and use it to the Lord's glory. Maybe it can be used often for carpools? I know that God has a plan for it :)
Last night friends came to visit from not where I live... and we watched the Lion King at the cinemas.. it was so much fun! Even though it is animated, it spoke to me spiritually.. Scar is like satan, telling lies so as to disempower us and to make us afraid-- if we believe the lies! Which lies am I believing? What truths do I need to tell myself?
And then when Simba rose to the challenge and took pride rock, as was his responsibility, it just sent shivers down my spine. There is something attractive about strength, and I guess.. manliness.. Ha hA!! But it was also a moment of glory- of having overcome obstacles and challenges and stepping up into the position which we are destined for. Let that apply to us. That when we step up to live the lives that God has planned for us, into the works, the grace, the authority we will enter into a new purpose. I'm so excited! May we live the lives we were meant to live!!
Blessings

uitdaging

Die laaste twee weke is 'n bietjie van' n brand! Ek moes by die huis kom vanaand en net slaap.
Ek is mal uitgehang met mense, ek is lief om mense te leer ken, maar ek is meer en meer vind dat dit nie die voorreg dat ek een keer om dit te wees. O Heer! Dat my hart kan tender aan U wil.
Hoe vreemd dit is dat die moegheid, of moegheid so 'n hindernis kan wees. Maar dan, wanneer ek voel soos ek besef hoe geseënd ek het so 'n ongelooflike mense rondom my om pret te hê met my lewe te deel met is.
Indien slegs dat ek nie neem dit as vanselfsprekend aanvaar, selfs al dikwels Ek wens in my grot om weg te steek en nie om die dag in die gesig staar. Maar hier is die uitdaging. Het mense weet dat ek hulle waardeer? Hoe sou ek my waardering oor die deel met hulle gaan? Miskien is 'n begin sou wees om te kyk na myself, selfs al het ek voel moeg, en in gesprek te betrek, ten spyte van wat my brein is stadig en my innerlike wese wil net alleen gelaat moet word. Miskien kan ek 'n meer vrygewige persoon word. As ek net nie so baie dat my Huisgenoten gebruik my goed-miskien as ek net 'n bietjie ontspan gedagte, die vrylating van die sfinkter en net laat wees ... mhmm ..
Ek is nie in die klagte. Ek is net ongelooflik geseën en wil te ontvang en ook om dit te deel, om erkenning te gee aan diegene wat my seën. Laat my nie skuldig te laat ander voel geïsoleerd. Maar eerder, kan diegene wat saam met my in aanraking kom, weet hulle die moeite werd, weet dat hulle is kosbaar en voel verlig en aangemoedig. Mhmm .. whoa, wat is 'n moeilike taak. Ek dink dit alles begin met my doelbewuste keuse en pogings verder te kyk as my eie wêreld en om te waag om iets te sien in die anders ...
