Who's Coming With Me?

Beloved Daughter of The Most High God,
it is time for your voice to be heard.
The keys to eternal promises and truths lay in your hands waiting to unlock the treasures bestowed upon those who are called His Own.
You have the ability to draw others to your side in all you say and do. You have virtues that surpass the pretentious and the pious. 
Redemption has made you whole, and in your fullness there is a richness that extends beyond the wealth of this world.


Priceless is your value,
Divine is your calling,
Treasured is your soul.


You have a creativity like no other and you outshine the stars when you smile with all your heart. Those beautiful eyes have seen much in their lifetime, but nothing compared to His Glory that awaits you. 
Take heart oh lovely one, for your hero is coming, and is already here. Having fought the battle through mockery, brutality, resistance and thorns just to get to you, to rescue you. Who are you that He would come for you? unworthy, unwanted, fallen and damaged you say. 
He thinks not. 
His eyes are fixed on you for you are all that He says you are - 


Beautiful. 
Adored. 
Cherished. 
Wanted. 
Redeemed. 
Righteous. 
Set Apart. 
Chosen. 
Lovely. 
Brave.


Galant, courageous and splendid he comes, ready to tear down the fortress that would have you imprisoned for eternity. Ready to save you, ready to take you on a ride into the unknown, into adventure, into freedom.
Come sweet beauty, 
Listen, 
for He is calling you, though you are weak, He makes you strong. There is nothing to fear. That tower built up around you is not safe, but His loving arms are. Fall into them, let Him love you. 
In even a whisper your Saviour will come to your side, for He knows just where to find you, you are never lost in His sight.
Feel the wind in your hair, warm sun on your skin, let Him lead you my dear girl, for He is The One who knows the way.


'He rescued me because He delights in me' - Psalm 18:19

a Beautiful book indeed!

So I finished a book last night. If you saw the size of it you might laugh coz one could read it in a day, but it's not that kind of book. This little book was the kind I picked up sometimes at the right time, and sometimes at the wrong time and when the latter happened it would always put the 'wrong' into perspective and help to bring me out of wherever I was stuck. It's the kind of book I'd pick up on the evenings the kids were in bed and Mr Bright Spark was out and I'd run myself and lovely big bath and sit and soak, book in hand, (dry ones of course:) bubbles up to my chin... ahh bliss! 
It's the kind of book I aspire to write myself someday. 
I have bought it for many friends and family members, all up I counted 17 purchases from the shop that sells it!

Every page is rich in beauty, love, truth, hope & promise. The writer knows the cry of our human hearts, and better yet, she knows the heart of our beautiful God. I am changed because of this book, and I don't say that lightly.

So now that I am finished means I can start it all over again! oh and it's the kind of book you can pick up and read wherever you open to and know that it will resonate within your very soul.

If you don't own one, you should - here it is .... Enjoy!
