God gave me a word for this year, an overarching theme for 2023 which is… ‘expectancy’. I came to Him every day from New Year’s Day to ask Him what my word would be. On the 11th Jan I felt Him say the word expectancy which made me laugh as I realised I had been … More Gratitude is a key to fuel our….expectations!
I felt God highlight the word ‘Overshadow’ as I looked at my friends painting of a lion standing high behind a female warrior with a sword in her hand. It also reminded me of a picture I’d seen of a lion with its cub (see photo). I felt Him say that “we are overshadowed, by … More Overshadowed
You’re not too far gone! A friend of mine shared a picture of her paint brushes recently and they had gone all hard and inflexible because they were so full of paint and needed a deep clean. As I looked at the picture I felt God say “They’re not too far gone and nor are … More You’re not too far gone!
God woke me last night to talk to me about, of all things, ‘backseat drivers’. Yikes anyone know any? Not me surely!

As I was unpacking this with Him I realised that the first survival tip if you want to stay alive is to build a fire. It is in the top 5 tips in every … More Keep the home fires burning
I was having a conversation with a friend about the fact I always wear lots of colours, all at the same time (I had on a dress like an abstract piece of art you’d see in the Tate Modern as we were speaking). I explained to her that this hadn’t always been my story and … More Stop hiding!
Following on from my blog on ‘Be what you want to see’ I felt the Father say that we all need to ‘play our part’. It can be so easy to be a bystander in the kingdom, standing on the sidelines criticising or grumbling about the things we don’t see happening that we want to … More Play your part
Recently I felt God challenge me with the words… You have to be what you want to see! I have felt Him nudge me a few times recently as I have been feeling a holy dissatisfaction with what I’m seeing. One of the things I wanted to see was what I was seeing in the … More Be what you want to see!
