Today I have been thinking about praying for others.

I have been thinking about how I can be there for others.

I have been thinking about praying.

I love praying.

I love being there for others.

So, I am asking you how can I help you?

Do you need prayer?

I would love to pray for you.

Let me know what you need.

This is a place where you can just come and be you.

Where you can just rest in who you are.

I want this to be a safe place.

I want this to be a place where you know that you are worthy, valued and loved.

Message me and let me know how I can pray for you.

We all need someone that can just be there for us.

Who is there for you?

What are your prayer points?

Let me know.

I love Matthew 7:7-8

Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, the one who seeks finds and to the one who knock the door will be opened.

Let us ask, seek and knock.

Do you need a catch up?

I would love to hear from you.

There is something about catching up with friends that want to invest in you.

There is something about catching up with friends that see the best in you.

There is something about catching up with friends that can speak into your life.

There is something about catching up with friends that are just there for you.

I don’t know about you, but I value friends that I can catch up with and just be me.

I love that.

Do you have someone that you can just be you?

This is so important.

I would encourage you to find someone that you can catch up with and be you.

I would encourage you to find someone that you can be accountable with.

Maybe for you this could be a mentor, someone that you can encourage you.

In my journey I have such amazing mentors and friends that have encouraged me and have spoken into my life.

I have loved this.

There is something about being in a community.

Who is in your community?

I would love to chat with you, I would love to encourage you.

Please contact me and let’s catch up for a coffee and a chat.

Yes, I would really love this.

Let’s catch up soon.

Love

There are days that I can get so caught up in what I am not doing and forget about what I have achieved.

Has this happened to you?

We forget to focus on the amazing things that we have done.

We forget to look at the positive things in our lives.

We forget to say to ourselves, well done for today.

We can become so consumed by the negative thoughts that we have.

I have shared before that I work as a primary school Chaplain and I love my job.

I talk to a lot of students who may be focusing on the negatives, who feel that they cannot see a positive in their lives.

I always come back to-

Today I am Grateful for…………………….

I suggest that they have lovely journal that they can write in and a lovely pen.

I suggest to them to write down what they are grateful for today. They can do this just before they go to bed at night.

It can be the little things like-

I have a bed to sleep in

I have friends

I get to go to school and learn

I have a pet.

I need to remind myself as well sometimes that there are so many things that I can be grateful for.

A Challenge-

Buy you a lovely journal

Buy yourself a beautiful pen.

Every night before you go to bed write 5 things that you are grateful for.

Please share what you are grateful for today.

Lately I have been thinking about encouraging others.

Yes, this has been on my heart.

Yes, this has been on my heart for quite a long time.

It is something that I am passionate about.

This is something that I want to embrace every day.

How do you encourage others?

What do you do for others, I would love to hear from you?

Let’s encourage one another on this journey.

We are better when we are with others and encouraging other.

I will be relaunching my YouTube Channel which is – Tracey Buckley, would love for you to subscribe to it.

Stay tuned.

There is so much that I want to do with it.

My heart is so involved in encouraging others.

Let’s encourage and be there for one another.

Encourage others and be there for others.

Random Acts of Kindness

Lately I have been thinking about Random Acts of Kindness.

I love this.

What does that mean for you?

For me it means ask, seek and knock.

What have you been asking, seeking and knocking for?

I would love to know how you have been blessing others?

You are a blessing to others.

For me on my heart lately I have been wanting to bless others.

I jut want to bless them without them even knowing.

I love this the surprise of encouraging others.

I have been wanting to encourage others and say yes you can do this.

How can we bless others and just surprise them?

How can we just be a blessing to others?

Random acts of kindness, what does that look like to you?

Let me know what you do.

I would love to hear what you have been doing.

What if we just blessed others without them, even knowing.?

What if we just blessed others for who they are? Without receiving anything?

What if we just blessed others because we care about them?

What if we blessed others because that is who we are, a person that blessed others?

So, let’s encourage and bless one another this week.

Love this.

There is something about taking a break and being on holidays.

I am on school holidays and I am so grateful for this time.

What do you like about holidays?

What do you do when you are on holidays?

I just love that I don’t have to set my alarm, it is such a freeing experience. No setting of the alarm for two weeks.

I love the space that I have to create.

Space to be creative is really important to me.

Space to create.

My heart for the last two weeks has been on singing and I really miss singing.

Is there something that you love that you have put on hold?

Is there something that makes your heart sing that you have stopped doing?

I can answer to both of these questions yes.

Why do we stop investing in the things that make us happy, that make us whole?

It is that we put other things in place of what we love?

It is because we don’t think that we are good enough?

I love the thought of what would we you do if you/I could not fail?

How would we approach what we love to do?

How would our lives be different?

I want to share something with you, I work as a primary school Chaplain and the children know that I love to sing and dance.

The children have said to me- your life is a musical.

What if we embraced our dream, our desires and what makes our heart smile?

What would our life be like?

How would our life look?

My challenge for the next few days is- to sing.

What will you do?

Be encouraged, you deserve a beautiful life.

Be brave.

Today Beautiful One,

Really wanted to share this with you.

Beautiful One

I have had this on my heart for awhile.

Do you need some encouragement?

Do you need prayer?

Do you need someone to just listen to you?

Do you need someone to just be there for you?

Do you need someone to encourage you?

Do you need to know that there is someone who values you?

Please message me, would love to hear from you.

Will share more soon.

There are those days where your heart feels heavy for others.

There are those days when you reflect on what you have heard.

There are those days where you wonder what is going on.

There are those days where you wonder, what can I do?

There are those days where you say, how can I help you?

There are those days where you say to others, I am here for you.

There are those days where you reach out to others.

There are those days, where we are reminded that we are in a community.

There are those days that you want to wipe away tears from those that have lost something.

There are those days where you just sit with someone who is in pain and say to them, I am here for you.

There are those days where you want to say to others there is no judgement here, this is a safe place.

There are those days that feel difficult and hard.

There are those days that together we are stronger, together we have support, together we care.

There are those days when you say, all I have is in my hand.

It may mean so much to someone that you are just there for them, just them.

It may mean so much to someone to just love on them and accept them as they are.

It may mean so much to someone that you notice them, that you acknowledge them.

It may mean so much to someone to say that you value them.

It may mean so much to someone that you have reached out to them.

It may mean so much to someone that you are just there, that you are just there to hold the space for them.

This week just be there for someone.

This week just be there.

This year I have had on my heart that I don’t want to repeat what I did last year. I don’t want this year to be a copy of last year, I really don’t.

I want this year to be different, I want this year to be one where I will embrace this new season.

Yes, I am really excited about this.

I want to have opportunities to look forward to. I want this year to be different, I want to take risks, healthy risk, I want to expand my world. I want to be able to embrace the creativity in my life. I want to make a difference.

I love my role as a primary school Chaplain. If you have been following my blog you will know this. I love what I am able to do in the school community. I love being available to help, to listen and to care for others. I love and embrace community.

This year I am planning some personal development workshops, I am really excited about.

I feel that there is a season where it is really important to invest in what you are passionate about.

Are you in this season of investing in what you are passionate about?

I would love to hear what you are doing?

Let’s encourage one another.

I am going to share more about the personal development workshops that I will be attending.
