Life and the Single Christian Girl Continues……

Today is ANZAC day and I really want to take the time to remember. Pause and remember.  Thankyou.

……………………………………………………………………………………

Today I have been going through items and sorting out things in my home. 

I find the holidays are a great time to organise my place. I love decorating, organising and just creating a lovely place.

I have also been listening to podcasts and I especially liked one by Holly Wagner about who you are in Christ.

There was a woman who had shared her testimony of recovery from an eating disorder. God is in the business of healing you and restoring you.

This really resonated with me because it reminded me of my journey and what I went through. No two journeys are the same.

I think that there is real power in sharing your testimony, as scary as it can be you never know who is listening.

This is my passion to be able to see girls and women know who they really are, not what society says they have to be.

I spoke a few months ago at a beautiful church about Who You Are.  You may have been told that you are not good enough, that you don’t measure up that you are not worth it.

Don’t believe this, DON’T!!!!!

You are you, an individual, you have special gifts and talents that need to be share.

You are important and unique.

Don’t give up on your dreams, don’t give up on your goals.

Go out and have an adventure.

Let me know how you are going?

Looking forward to talking to you tomorrow.

Life and the Single Girl

I have been thinking about life and being single.

Life and the single Christian girl that’s me.

I feel quite vulnerable even writing this but I want to be able to encourage others.

You are not alone if you find yourself single.

I am wondering how many of us are out there, who have been praying for a husband.

I have been single for quite a while now, I think the last time I went on a date was when Haley’s Comet came past earth. Whoops!

Do I want to be in a relationship yes of course?

When I was younger I dreamt that I would be married and have children by now.

I find myself now in my 40’s single and with no children.

It’s all good though.

I have been on a journey myself and I have learnt to lean on God.

Everything that I have done has led me to this place right now.

I feel stronger, I know who I am in Christ, and I have discovered that I am creative.

I have a great family and lots of lovely friends who really encourage me.

I have lovely nieces and a nephew who I get to spoil. It’s part of the Auntie’s rule book. It true!

I have not given up on the hope of having a husband and children.

I know that a dream placed in your heart will come to pass. It is my prayer.

I think that I get so focused on what I am doing that I forget to stop and look around me.

Now I have decided to work on a new project called-

Life and the Single Christian Girl

I would love to hear from you if you find yourself single, if you need encouragement and if you want to share your dating experiences.

Stay tuned for more adventures.

Adventures

The last few nights I have slept very well, for me this is something new. I have woken up this morning feeling refreshed and peaceful.

I have been thinking about a lot of things that I would like to do.  I have been thinking about what I would like to achieve and also how to make a difference in the community.

I have enjoyed the simplicity of today, doing washing, hanging it up and then bringing it in when it has dried.

I was thinking that I am grateful that I have clothes to wash.

I just want to embrace my life at this moment.

Today I have a sign up that says-

What Would You Attempt To Do If You Knew You Could Not Fail?

I love this saying it encourages me, it inspires me, it challenges me and it motivates me.

The beginning of the year I wrote on a large canvas my Life Adventures I have about 20 things on my list at the moment and I will be adding to this list. I have achieved one thing of my list at the moment which is ice skating.

I have plenty more to achieve. Yeah!

What would I do?

What is something that you would love to do?

Hope that this inspires you?

Good Friday

Today I remember and reflect on what Jesus did for us on the cross.  This is really important to me.

Today also was a time to spend with my family.

We celebrated Easter together. We ate, we laughed, and the children received Easter Eggs and ate chocolate.  We also played soccer, we chatted and we just enjoyed each other’s company.

My sister made some amazing food which we all enjoyed.

It was a great time to relax and catch up with each other.

I love spending time with my nieces and nephew. I love it, I really do. It’s all about creating memories.

I took a few photos which I just love.

School Holiday Project-

Enjoy time with your children take pictures of them, you can use them for your scrapbooking project. Write the date and what you are doing in them. Then you can decorate them with stickers, boarders and coloured paper. You can also choose whatever you would like to decorate them with.

Take your time and enjoy what you are doing.

Halfway

I cannot believe that I am halfway through the month with my blogging. It has really challenged me to continue writing each day. I must say though I am enjoying it, I know that it is creating memories. I already have ideas for next month. Stay tuned for that one, I am looking forward to the next challenge.

Last night I attended my first Tuesday night of Samba lessons, I ended up doing two hours. I did the beginners class and then the intermediate class. The reason I did this was because I think that I would have gone home and then not attended the intermediate class. Whatever I need to do to get there then I will do it. Oh my gosh I love dancing and learning new things. I am really going to have to practise this week for next week.

Today I went to work as a fairy, I did really. I had the holiday program and the class was called- Once Upon a Time. It was about stories, songs, drawings and most of the children came dressed up. I had the 3 to 5 year olds again and they were such a lovely group. Some of them also dressed up as well and I received a few nice comments about my dress.

I love that I am able to share my joy and love of creativity with lovely children.

School Holiday project number four-

Once upon a time

This is a time to be able to read some stories to your children ones that they are interested in. You can also share your favourite childhood stories with them.

After you have read a story or 2 or 3 or as many as you like, then ask them to draw their own story.

This develops language, imagination, fine motor skills.

They are also spending valuable time with you which is really quite nice. You are also building memories for them.

Have fun and enjoy yourself.
