Recently I’ve been contemplating what ‘agreement’ has meant in my life. I was quite a fearful kid growing up. I was so cautious and afraid of anything I didn’t understand, couldn’t control or had an unknown outcome. Anything that put me out there and could mean I could get hurt (emotionally or physically) was out …
Recently in a community worship time, the worship leader asked us what our ‘bottom line’ is. For her it was obedience - in the context of being a parent. But God had been teaching her that His bottom line is love and relationship. And that this is how we should always come to our children …
The last two weeks has been really hectic. God kind of dropped a few things in front of me and gave me a few options for what my life could look like in the immediate future. This is both terrifying and liberating. Terrifying because making major life decisions is slightly stressful and it meant that …
“Life is a gift and the Giver is good…” This has been a common saying on the YWAM base here recently, especially as we’ve all been fundraising for outreach. There have been some incredible breakthroughs on our school for finances and it’s been so good to see how faithful God is to each of His …

I can't begin to comprehend how much I adore, am inspired by and value who you are becoming. I don't say these things just because I am your sister, or because I am …
EDIT: It's funny how you can think that God is done with those big revelation moments that leave you a mess in worship, but then He's just like; 'Kidding, I'm never done with you'. I wrote this post almost two weeks ago, and at the time I knew I shouldn't post it right away. I …
Tents; not enough cooking supplies; too much food; no showers; wombats; beaches; so many car trips; singing at the top of our lungs; cute, not so sleepy towns; no sleep; humid sleeping bags and the best people in the world.
