Welcome

Welcome to a Vivid Life! It is my dream that this will become a platform where women can inspire women to authentic living and where grace will be extravagant. A place where we can encourage one another to run the race with joy and abandon, our eyes fixed upon Jesus – the author and finisher of our faith!

Married, a Mother and a Missionary, often Martha and occasionally Mary, I am afresh struck by SONDER – the realization that everyone is living their own vivid life. Therefore, I believe sharing our stories, and linking our journeys will strengthen us to be and do more. For we all know what it feels like to:

  • Drive around in circles – unable to make decisions,
  • Get stuck in peak traffic – being pulled in opposite directions by home and work,
  • Break down next to a highway – from burnout and exhaustion or
  • Find ourselves traveling alone through a life storm – abandoned by colleagues, family, or friends.

Fellow pilgrim, join me in the Land of Hope, where I have already pitched my tent! En route, we can inspire others to wholehearted living, single-minded devotion, and unceasing prayer. Planted not packaged, our Farmer-Father promises us wholeness, purpose and abundance; freedom, fun, and fruitfulness! Thus, let us remain in the Vine – a planting of the Lord – that He may be glorified!

Proclamation Challenge

Welcome to a new Grace Challenge! Every year these challenges draw me into deeper fellowship with God, helping me to live better, love better and lead better. Before we delve into the details of praying the promises and speaking the blessings of God this year, I would like to honour God for how He impacted my life through last year’s Wisdom Challenge! In His faithful love, He powerfully used His Word to wash, restore and refresh me!

For the next 18 months our grace challenge is called the Proclamation Challenge. Our focus will be the fifteen Psalms of Ascent. As we meditate, study, and memorize these beautiful songs in the coming months, I pray that we will be profoundly stirred to release blessing and life and that in word and deed to those around us! The apostle Paul refers to the Word of God as the Sword of the Spirit. If yielded faithfully, you too can witness its creative, transforming, and supernatural power at work in your circumstances and life – as I did last year.

“What do you see, Jeremiah?”
“I see the branch of an almond tree,” I replied.
The LORD said to me, “You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled.” Jeremiah 1:11,12
