Today’s blog will sort of be a summary of my thoughts on Ezekiel chapter 8. To tell you the truth, what first drew me to Ezekiel was the fact that I couldn't really recall if I’d ever read any part of the book before, and let me tell you; when I was reading it I... Continue Reading →
Day 1 as a Seoulite
I’m back (finally)- I’m rested and finally ready to get started on this travel blog! Life is going much better lately, adding more fuel to my energy (😂). So... Gyeongbukgung Palace (경복궁). Gyeongbukgung palace is situated on beautiful grounds, surrounded by picturesque mountains. The palace also houses the National Palace Museum of Korea. Walking around Gyeongbukgung you’ll notice many people dressed in... Continue Reading →
Be Yourself: Lessons from the life of Mordecai
Going through the book of Esther chapter 5, I believe that there are a lot of things that we can learn from the life of Mordecai, especially by the time we get to verse 13. Mordecai showed the importance of being yourself, and being okay to be yourself. He refused to bow before Haman who... Continue Reading →

Hey all, I thought that I would do something a little bit different in this blog and share my experience of travelling in Seoul, South Korea as a black Christian female.

I don’t have enough…

Personally, I’ve come across this passage many times and have heard messages preached on it however,... Continue Reading →

The story... Continue Reading →

As I mentioned in the previous blog, it can be really easy for your expectations for a certain occasion, person or situation to quickly turn to disappointment and whilst it’s impossible...

Expectation — Disappointment: The Narrow Line
Erm... I don’t know about you guys but I’ve had to take many social media breaks this year and in the past years whether at the suggestion of close friends or as I personally felt led. Overall, I used to feel like I was immune to the effects of social media on one’s mental health... Continue Reading →
Reflections… take 2
Following the end of my degree I've had some time to think and reflect...one of the things that have been going through my mind is the need for me to be intentional and proactive. Thinking through my years at University I found that there were some things that I thought I could have done differently and better,... Continue Reading →
Titus 3 & Doing Good
Today’s blog is going to be a little bit different in that I will be writing about something that really hit home for me and was a revelation to me in a way (if I may be permitted to call it that) after randomly stumbling across Titus. The book of Titus is a weird one-... Continue Reading →
