2017 IN REVIEW: 7 THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR Hello, lovelies! In my previous post, I considered leaving a little thank you message at the tail end as I had assumed it would be my last post for the year. How wrong I was- and so thankful I am, because how awful would it have been ending the year without sharing some of the biggest lessons I have learnt this year with you? There really would have been no coming back from that, would there? 😁 So, in the next few lines, keeping it as short as I possibly can, I am going to share seven things I am really thankful for this year. With that will come snippets of some of the things I have also learnt in the process of enjoying these blessings. If you're as ready as I am, let's get it moving. 1. GOD'S LOVE IS AMAZING! In 2017, God well and truly overwhelmed me with His love. I think this was the year that I came to the full realization that when He says in His Word, how much He cares about me, He does mean every single wo...

THANKFUL, STILL It is 01:48am as I type these very words. I have to be up early for Church in a few hours, which suggests that it would be a great  idea to get my hands off this keyboard and channel my  energy into fighting my current state of sleeplessness. But I am stubborn. Relentless is another word that comes to mind.

I will inevitably dislike myself for a few minutes or so for being SO strong headed. Yet this stubbornnes- or relentlessness- that would be the cause of this, is one of the things I am most thankful for.  I feel the urge to describe it as a blessing and curse in some form. You'll under...

RANT:THE BANKY REVEAL Hi, guys! How's everyone doing? Hope life's treating you well? And if things aren't going so smoothly, hope those lemonades you're making out of the lemons are looking good! Keep at it, things will get better. :) I have been away for the longest time for so many reasons. I bet you're tired of my endless apologies- but your girl's trying really hard to sort out her life, you know. I have my first major project out of the way now (God is amazing), just currently working on the other! :) However, today, I did not come here to laugh. I am here for serious business and what I hope will develop into and propel very serious/mature conversations. I, honestly, could easily air my thoughts out on Twitter, but then 280 characters won't do them proper justice. On the flip side, too, the things I desperately need to say aren't necessarily long enough to require a whole thread. So, blog it out of my system, I shall. :) Realistically, th...
