Reflections of 2015

Can you believe that in a couple of days time it will be December already? How has your year been? Are you excited and ready for 2016. I love this time of year, I love to reflect, to sort and clean my home for Christmas and to have a good break after a hard year's work. As it gets colder it seems to get more magical. Before the autumn leaves disappeared we had a family photo shoot and we had so much fun!

Daniel and Amy love to climb trees so we have several photos of them up in a tree or just hanging around like in the one below. They are such monkeys!

Can you see the little bump on Lorah below? She is PREGNANT so I am going to be a grandma in January! It is so exciting and I can't wait to meet my first granddaughter.

Here is an amazing photo of Samuel, Lorah and the bump taken today. Ooh I am so excited I could pop!

2016 has also given us two litters of kitten from our precious cats, Muffin and Poppy.

It could be so easy to reflect on the struggles and difficulties we have faced this year but equally we have the choice to focus on all the good times which is what we will do. The struggles have been many and I am always honest with you here on my blog and share them freely along with what God is teaching me. But what a joy today to be able to post some of the amazing times that we have had this year.

How about you, what has brought you joy this year? I would love to hear from you and see your photos too.

Love

Saved by grace, a new creation, on purpose for a purpose. I am free with a future and a hope!

I've considered deleting this blog many times but can't seem to let it go for some reason. Perhaps because it contains such an important part of my life and I'm hoping that somehow my 'scribblings' can inspire and help others going through some of the things I've been through. So, I continue to hold onto it for a little longer. Tonight, 31st December 2021, I reflect on not only the year that has passed but the many years before that too. I love to look back and reflect before plotting the way forwards into a new year. So I've pulled out all my journals and as I flip through the pages I am in awe of how far I have come. Only today I found myself chatting with Jordan about the importance of not comparing ourselves with others but without past self, and as I look back I am amazed and how far I have come. I can't help but go back to that day. The day that I hit rock bottom. I had been a Christian for 10 years at that point and yet still found myself on the

Conference Feedback

We had a beautiful day together on 8th September, thank you so much to you all for your incredible support and prayers. Feedback and testimonies have already started flooding in, have a read of some of them here . Also, keep an eye on our YouTube page as we update it with the speakers messages and conference highlight videos. We had the stunning Instruments of Praise gospel choir lead us in worship and it was truly heavenly. We also had Daughters of Davis who absolutely blew us away with their fantastic acoustic folk/soul vibe. Our Women in Business section was a real treat with stalls offering all sorts of beautifully displayed goods. Jill Chitty from the Entrepreneurs Circle spoke to the women in business offering practical tips for business growth.

Daniel Fast - Odours, Tiredness and Pains

These are some of what can occur during a fast but don't be alarmed, it is only worse case scenario. Many people don't go through all of this so don't worry. This info is merely so that you understand what is happening in your body and that you don't become concerned if some of these symptoms present themselves. Odours, tiredness, dizziness, headaches and other pains - these are some of the things that you will face during your fast. As you continue to fast you body will begin to cleanse itself and eliminate toxins. These toxins will come out of your body wherever they can which will mean that you might sweat more and your sweat will have a stronger smell than usual. You breath will also be stronger than usual and so will you urine smell. You may even get a funny taste in your mouth or feel that your tongue has a thick coat on it. It sounds nasty, but for a while you will face unpleasant odours from your body, so brush well with a natural toothpaste (as you don
