I was chatting to one of the teachers at the Montessori Playgroup I attend with my son on Wednesdays, asking for some advice and she said to me, “Well I wish I’d never yelled at my kids, but I did.” She went on, “I vividly remember finding out, that the most perfect Mum at school,…

Psalm 37:1-9
I am loving reading through a Psalm every day. The other day I read Psalm 37. Verses 1-9, I felt, were given to me as mine to meditate on and pray through. Encouraged by my journey through Ruth the other week I decided to break it down for myself. I figured you may like to…
Children of God
When you’re a mum, you need to be all things to all men. Some days I’m good at it some days I’ve got work to do. But God gives me a way and a why. The way is to understand my freedom. I am not slave to anyone, I belong to no-one. I am free but I choose…
A Gentle and Quiet Spirit

What Mind Has Conceived?
A few weeks ago a 90 year old patient of my husband, a prolific artist, asked if could she paint something for our youngest to put on his wall. What a gift! So I unceremoniously, tore a scrap of cardboard from the packaging of a PJ Masks toy and asked her to paint Catboy, Gekko…
Keeping it real
God help me I… began in the shower. A washing. A cleansing. A complete shock to be honest. I was happily having my shower when God downloaded all the chapter headings for a book about sex into my brain. It was not a topic I had imagined myself writing about, so I said to God,…
