Finding Voice



We all, at one point or another, overstep some boundaries in search of ourselves. When you're on a quest finding your way in this upside down system/world we live in, and you do overstep here and there ~ life will quickly knock you back into place. This is our time to find Voice. To take a time-out and re-asses the way we have been going about. Either you were wrong or the current world system (or whatever you have put your trust in) has failed you (or both :) whichever way your cookie crumbled...this is a good place to stop and find Voice.


We are not a people accidentally banged (the big bang...) into being...look at nature. Perfectly designed and created. As are we.


When we were kids, we knew exactly what we wanted and when we wanted it. We weren't afraid to say it, live it, or dream it. Nothing was impossible. We live in a society of conformity and tradition and all that makes us feel safe and comfortable. Creatures of habit.



Dreams go beyond the borders of safety...


Beyond tradition


and the socially acceptable 


Don't be so "grown up"


that you forget how to dream



Be Brave in a Dream-Devouring world



Find Voice in who You are THROUGH God's eyes




Also learn how to listen to Him



When He speaks... 




"And after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; 




and after the fire [a sound of gentle stillness and] a still, small voice" (1 Kings 19:12 AMP)



Long ago I started CHASING a dream




But God asked me to WAIT ON HIM



Waiting is one of the most difficult things I've ever had to do... 


But in the wait, I have found Voice 


not all of it...i have not arrived 


But I am at a good place 





"I waited and waited and waited for God. At last he looked;

finally he listened. He lifted me out of the ditch, pulled me from deep mud. 

He stood me up on a solid rock to make sure I wouldn’t slip. 

He taught me how to sing the latest God-song, a praise-song to our God. 

More and more people are seeing this: they enter the mystery, 

abandoning themselves to God." (Psalm 40:1-3 MSG) 





So all I'm really on about is;

He is worth the wait

Find Your Voice in the Waiting Seasons of Life












Much Love

other inspiration writing this:

“Speak up for the people who have no voice, for the rights of all the down-and-outers. 


Speak out for justice! Stand up for the poor and destitute!” (Proverbs 31:8, 9 MSG)


Speak out to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, 


offering praise with voices [and instruments] and making melody 


with all your heart to the Lord, (Ephesians 5:19 AMP)

#Bakgat Gesondheidsbeskuit

My ouma het altyd gesê: “As jy kan lees, kan jy bak”. Ek het dit altyd geglo en wyd en syd verkondig, maar vandat ek self begin bak het vir ‘n lewe, het ek agtergekom dat jy meer leer met ondervinding as wat enige resep jou kan vertel. Soos ek dan nou hierdie resep met julle deel, deel ek dan ook my ondervinding, wat ‘n paar vrae dalk vir julle sal opklaar en natuurlik die mite dat beskuit moeilik is om te bak van die tafel afhaal. Bestandele: 1kg Bran Rich Self Raising Flour  (of gewone self raising flour as jy nie so baie van semels hou nie) 10ml Bakpoeier 10ml Sout 125ml Klapper 250ml Sonneblom sade 100ml Rosyne 50ml fyn gekapte neute van jou keuse 500ml All Bran Flakes  (goedkoper bran flakes ook goed, maar proe nie so lekker nie) 250ml Suiker (wit of bruin, maak nie saak nie) 500ml Oats (maak nie saak watter ‘brand’ nie) 500g Botter (gesmelt) 500ml Karringmelk Hierdie is die basis waarvan af ek werk.

Die klippie in my skoen - geskryf deur iskra

Wat 'n knaende verraad! Daardie klippie in die skoen. Daardie ding wat krap en pla en mens soms verleë laat. Dis 'n pes as jy dalk jaag van hier na daar, soveel dinge wat aan jou trek; jou aandag vat; daar is nie tyd nie! Vir jou om net te kan sit, skoen uittrek en die verdomde ding uitgooi! Pfffeeeu...! Wat 'n verligting as hy eers weg is! So klein dingetjie met soveel praat in sy kneuse...daardie klippie in die skoen. (Talk about rubbing me up the wrong way!) Ons het almal maar ons klippies. Klein goedjies wat haak en pla. Daagliks knaag dit aan ons..maal dit rond in ons koppe, laatnag, wannneer ons eintlik moet slaap... Ons veiligheid. Ons kinders se toekoms, gesondheid. Hoe gaan jy hierdie maand daardie rekening betaal? Jou huwelik of 'n vriendskap is dalk op 'n snaakse plek of selfs naby skipbreek? Dalk ons eie gesondheid wat 'n lelike rapport gekry het... 'n finale een...wat jou asem weggeruk het...wat jou, die mense om jou, dae en minute met '...
