Overwhelmed with life in many ways, my sister and I decided to go for a late night walk. We sang half the time, and the other half we talked. With aching heart's we broke out joining together in song with these stinging words;
"The lights go out all around me, one last candle to keep out the...
As a sidenote: I have chosen to go back to the Hebrew name for God, because I have had it pressed on my heart that I need to be clearly identified with the God of Israel, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. So it’s going to be a bit of a transition to change the habit through my speech and...

So "Mother's day" is around the corner right now and the social media, and multiple industries and companies are fully taking advantage of that. I can't seem to go anywhere without seeing something advertised along the lines of "Tell your mother how much you love her" and poster after poster...
"All I want is love!" I foolishly cry, then wander in circles and heavily sigh.

I'm on my knees now, I look up at His face... "I am love, so what is it you chase?"
"Lydia, you've never been alone, I'm right...
INHERITING GOD’S PROMISES
“And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” (Hebrews 6:11-12 NKJV)
You cannot inherit God’s...
Look at yourself tell me what do you see?
A soul that’s been broken, torn at the seams
You’re so scared to trust, its so hard to believe
that anyone hears you, cos you need a rescue
Pick up your heart and give it to Him
This is the moment where everything changes

but you do not hear my gentle call
I watch as you trip, stumble, and fall
You’re out of my reach now, beyond my grasp
My heart faints within...
Here is a piece of my journal entry today and what God has been showing me...As I was praying I could see short visions passing over my eyes and I was writing down what I was seeing….

Bring us back Lord,
bring us back
Turn us back Lord,
turn us back
The shame...
Tears are flowing from my eyes
All life within me wails and cries
How long O Lord, how must I wait?
I’m wrestling pride, guilt, and hate
In pride I turn away from You
and in anger I sin against You too
I murmur, complain, and grumble
do I realise its against You I mumble?
“Pick up...
Whenever you feel weak (and by weak I mean depressed, angry, frustrated…) go somewhere quiet, take your bible and read a few verses. For me its really hard to focus and read when I am upset but I'm telling you if you force yourself to do it God will encourage you and give you strength. Gods word...
I feel like I'm making an advertisement looking for Christian friends hahahahha
The truth is that the narrow path can get kinda lonely and I feel that we need to come along side eachother and pray for each other and walk with each other as we seek after God.
My name is Lydia, I'm 20years...
