“I’m going on tour with an African Children’s Choir” said the very white, blonde haired, blue eyed girl. That’s been my favourite way to raise some eye brows lately. You see I am lucky enough to be going on tour with 100% hOPE Choir around the east coast of Australia. I can not sing, I can dance in my dreams and I definitely would trust … Continue reading On Tour
He searches for a pure heart, but where could he find a heart that has withstood corruption? So he gave us a purifier, so that those who would search for Him, could be pure in his sight. You are invited, not restricted, there is no limited access. We have been given all-access, backstage passes, to His presence. You are qualified, identified, heaven has made … Continue reading Unrestrained Worship
I’ve been thinking about the Psalms lately. The songs or hymns of praise written by a variety of different authors. Some offer up praise to God, some lament and many declarations of the Messianic King who is to come. They are used in worship, for encouragement and we meditate on them. I love that some Psalms are raw and vulnerable and we can imagine what … Continue reading Psalms
The old coin exchange: It’s a well known trick among the secret association of older siblings. You coax your impressionable younger sibling to trade their little ‘insignificant’ $2 for your much larger ‘more impressive’ 50 cent coin. Classic. If your lucky they fall for it and you can buy yourself a cheeseburger from Maccas. This Easter it struck me that this ancient practice is reminiscent … Continue reading The Unfair Exchange
When I was in high school I remember joking that if I wasn’t married by the time I was thirty then I’m moving to Africa. It was so hilarious to me at the time because I thought it was a sure thing that I would be married… no doubt in my mind. Now at the ripe age of 27 that joke seems to get less … Continue reading Leftovers
Do you even harvest your hair? It’s come to that time of year where all that growing pays off. It’s time for a chop that counts. A little while back I heard about the Pantene Beautiful lengths campaign. At the time my hair had gotten cat lady long and a friend told me that I could donate hair to Pantene who would turn it into … Continue reading Hair Harvest
How much did your dinner cost? The answer to that question may vary. Did you eat out, stay in or maybe ate leftovers? It could have been more then $10 or less. Well can you imagine for a moment spending the grand total of $10 on your groceries for 5 days? If you can then you may just get a taste of what it’s like … Continue reading Live below the line
Last year I was on a mission. The mission to save as much as humanly possible for my Europe adventures in 2017. In an effort to make saving a little less boring I gave myself a challenge; I could only buy second hand clothing for six months. To some this may seem like a breeze, but to someone with a weakness for shopping it was slightly … Continue reading Six Months Second Hand
One of the school holidays last year (a moment of thanks for a teacher’s life…) I went to visit my grandma. She lives in Bellingen, or ‘Bello’ if you’re a hip local, which is an amazing place were the traditional and classic elderly live in harmony with the new age hippy. It’s beautiful. You can go to the butter factory to lap up your butter … Continue reading Grandma’s House
Saving. We’ve all been there. Whether it’s out of necessity cause you’re a ‘povo’ uni student, or because you’re saving your but off for something in particular (like in my case- getting out and exploring the world). You know what it’s like to scrape the bottom of the barrel. Here are some of my tips that I’ve discovered so far to save without being a … Continue reading Saving Moolah
