After spending six, very life-changing, precious months in beautiful Uganda, a dear friend suggested I should start a blog. I toyed with the idea, and then life, just somehow, without me even realising, took over and time escaped.
I am never sure about what to write on such a site... Having looked at a variety of 'Blogs' there is so much I could choose from... Personal matters, affairs of the heart, general chit chat, baking idea's and recipes, travel entries, work, play, sport, tea, you name it, it's there, the list is endless.
My blog, is gonna be my blog. I don't know what I'm going to write about, but I know I have to write something.
I think about so many different things, and right now, changing someone's world is on my mind.
The time I spent in Uganda was mind blowing. Even if you were there with me, you will never know what effect it has had on my life, my heart, and my soul. It has stirred up this passion deep within my heart, so deep I barely allow people to see, so deep it scares me.
I have questions... What if these passions and desires of my heart are not met. What if I can't change the world, not even for one person. What if I can't change my world?
My hearts desire and my dream, is to see children all over the world, rise up and be the victorious sons and daughters of the Most High God. "To bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They WILL be called oaks of righteousness... Isaiah 61:3"
I want to serve others. I want to be a voice for the voiceless. I want to see children rise up and beat all odds, for them to accomplish great things. I want to see change in a broken and fallen world. And above all, regardless of age, race, background, gender and ability, I want us all to be treated as one, so devotedly loved and adored as the true sons and daughters of the Most High God. Treasured and precious in His sight. For our "worth is far more than rubies and pearls... Proverbs 31:10"
Many songs speak to me, touch my heart, for my soul to cling onto them. For now it is Hillsong United and Hosanna...
"Heal my heart and make it clean
open up my eyes to the things unseen
show me how to love like you have loved me
show me how to love like you have loved me
break my heart from what breaks yours
everything I am for your kingdoms cause
as I walk from earth into
eternity"
I do not know what my life entails, or on where the journey will take me. But what I am sure of, is that I am destined for great things... I am destined for change.
