A Family that Prays together, stays together

A milestone happened last night in our household, I came from work and before I left work I sent my hubby a text asking if we can do some Worship for a few minutes before or after supper. It happened after supper, we put on some Worship and as we were getting into the presence of God, I had a stirring in my heart to pray for a family that is going through what we went through last year. A family that is very close to us and I asked my hubby to open in prayer to get us into that frame of mind. The “we” consist of my husband, myself, our 9 year old, our 6year old and our 2 year old daughters.

I stood in awe of God because our girls worshipped Him in spirit and in truth and our baby girl Sai was having a ball of a time lifting her hands for Jesus, what a moment, Ziara our 6 year old sang at the top of her lungs and as my husband the head of our home opened in prayer we all took hands and formed a circle, it was such an awesome picture of a family in UNITY and as the scripture says “Where there is UNITY God commands a blessing” , I asked that my husband pray for the head of that particular family, the husband, I prayed for the wife, and our eldest daughter requested that she wants to pray for the children.

I thought WOW, what an order that is! As I prayed the tears started falling from my eyes and my girls came to comfort me, God’s presence was so tangible and overwhelming. I write this Blog because I am in awe of God and what He has begun in our Family, I implore you to pray for those who are facing the same afflictions you had so that you may be a lighthouse to them. Our “mess” God turned into His message to give HOPE to others. Your story is not your own it needs to be shared with others so that they may know they are not alone.

Let God in and let Him take the lead. God can only do as much as you allow Him in…I am looking forward to our Family’s next Worship session it is gonna be EPIC!

It's OKAY not be OKAY...

TODAY is one of those days I don't allow myself to have many of... A day where I am extremely emotional and teary and life seems to have gotten the better of me just for today. I don't tend to dwell on my negatives I am known to be the optimistic one and always positive however today I am far from that. I allow myself to be in this space because in this moments of being emotional and allowing myself to cry because they say tears are healing waters. I am very much aware of my surroundings and giving myself this space to just process every disappointment and whatever else I am dealing with. A close friend and mentor of mine told me a few months ago that I should learn to unpack things as they happen and not bottle it all up and then I explode when things just get too much. As a mother, wife and whatever else I am to whoever it all just got too much. Have you ever gotten to a point where you question "Why?"   "Why do I even bother talking non stop with my k...

No one is always busy...

Such truth in this picture. I saw this picture message on a page I follow on Facebook and it made me think and reflect and I shared it on my page but I didn't elaborate at the time because I was still filled with negative emotions. Then this morning a friend of mine shared it on her page and these are my thoughts about this and I am referring to friendships/relationships with family and just relationships in general. So please allow me to express myself.. What is most difficult to comprehend is that we allow people to have so much space in our lives and they give so little of their time to us...It hurts immensely when you know how committed you are to certain friendships/relationships and you get absolutely the bare minimum and that fact is what is making me walk away from many. Zainonesha had this to say about it " So true...then one has to settle with lame excuses as if our lives are depending on it. Be Honest I would say" Yes I understand that we are all in dif...

Being a MOM

While I pride myself in being a Mom, a nurturer and everything that goes with it, I have been feeling much like a failure of late. My girls (especially the middle one and the eldest one) have been struggling in their schoolwork not the understanding of the work but the self discipline that goes with making progress at school. A week ago I sat on one of the benches at the station and just managing to at that time (7am ) of the morning to write notes to teachers in message books as I had kept the girls at home the previous Friday because I forgot to do it the night before. As I went from one message book t o the next I opened the last one that was my middle daughter’s and here two warnings and a nice message from her teacher stared at me. As I proceeded to read the note I was filled with anger and much disappointment... I completely became one of those ladies that just let it “rip” on the train station and yes the “nasty” mom came out you know the one where you switch to Afrik...
