When I first encountered art inspired by faith, I didn’t expect it to touch me so deeply. It wasn’t just about pretty pictures or religious symbols. It was about a journey - a spiritual journey that invited me to explore my own heart, my own struggles, and my own hope. Have you ever felt that pull? That quiet nudge to express something too big for words? That’s where faith and creativity meet in the most beautiful way. I want to share with you how this kind of art can become

There is a melody that often rises up in my heart:🎼 “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and they are safe.”  🎶 It’s more than a song; it is Scripture woven into music, anchoring me when life feels overwhelming. 📖 “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.” — Proverbs 18:10 (NKJV) The Tower That Holds Us Secure We all seek safety. Some of us try to find it in relationships, finances, routines, or control. Ye

The unseen inheritance of spiritual compromise When my husband and I chose our wedding date — 31 October 1992 — we were very intentional. We wanted a day unshared by birthdays or other special events, a date that would belong solely to us. Back then, Halloween hadn’t yet reached South African shores, so the idea of our anniversary clashing with it never crossed our minds. Three decades later, it still grieves me that this day, sacred to us as a celebration of covenant love, i

Healing is a journey we often think of as deeply personal. But what if I told you that healing can be so much more when it happens within a community? 🤔 When we come together, sharing our stories, our pain and our hopes, something magical unfolds. It’s not just about mending wounds alone; it’s about restoration that lifts everyone involved. I’ve walked this path, and I want to share what I’ve learned about the power of healing in communities. Why Healing in Communities Matt

Emotional wellness is something we all crave, yet it often feels just out of reach. I’ve found that tapping into healing 💔heARTs💖 techniques can be a powerful way to unlock that wellness. It’s not about being an artist or creating a masterpiece. It’s about expressing what’s inside in a way that words sometimes can’t capture. Have you ever felt that?🤔 That urge to let your feelings flow freely, without judgement or expectation?🤔 That’s where the magic begins. When I first

Face Everything and Rise Fear often feels like an impenetrable wall standing between us and the life God has promised. It whispers: "...

I’ve always believed that creativity is more than just making something beautiful. It’s a journey inward, a way to connect with something deeper inside ourselves. When I first started exploring artistic practices, I didn’t expect how profoundly it would change me. It’s like opening a door to a room I didn’t know existed - a place where healing, faith, and expression meet. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or just searching for meaning, you might find that creative outle

I never imagined that picking up a paintbrush or scribbling in a journal could change my life. But here I am, sharing how healing through artistic expression has transformed my emotional and spiritual well-being. It’s not just about making art; it’s about making space for your soul to breathe, to process, and to grow. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, this might be the gentle nudge you need. Why Healing Through Artistic Expression Matters Have you ever

When one chooses healing, the whole family begins to breathe There’s a kind of courage not often celebrated — the kind it takes to stand up to patterns so familiar they almost feel like family. The ones that whisper, “This is just how we are,” even when they’re slowly suffocating us. Some of the chains we carry didn’t begin with us. They were forged in generations past — in households where silence was survival, where anger simmered just beneath the surface, where avoidance m

When passivity opens the door, destruction walks in Throughout history, the story of Ahab and Jezebel has echoed like a warning bell for every generation. Ahab, though king, abdicated his God-given responsibility to lead with courage and integrity. His silence and passivity opened the door for Jezebel’s manipulation, intimidation, and destruction to wreak havoc on the nation. 📖 “And so it was, while Jezebel massacred the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah had taken one hundr

A reflection on identity, destiny, and the sacred gift of names A name is the greatest connection to our identity and individuality. Some might say it is the most important word in the world to a person. When someone remembers our name, it makes us feel seen, respected, and valued. It leaves a mark. From the moment we are born, we are given a name — an identifier that holds our story. Some of us carry nicknames, while others change their names later in life. However, the comm

Rejecting violence and the celebration of harm I am appalled. Social media, a place meant to connect people, has instead become a breeding ground for mockery and cruelty whenever someone dies. To watch laughing emojis, careless comments, and even celebrations in response to the death of a 31-year-old husband and father is heartbreaking. There is something deeply wrong when a person is not allowed to freely hold or teach a different view without fear of being silenced by viole

Honouring the gift of life by slowing down Sometimes we need the gentle reminder: Deadlines, to-do lists, responsibilities — these things never truly end. The world keeps demanding, and if we let it, our energy and joy will be poured out until there is nothing left. Yet here is a truth worth holding close: You — your body, your soul, your heart — cannot be replaced. Your health, your soul, and your heart matter more than any unfinished task. Last week, Clive forwarded me a vi

When control disguises itself as love, only Christ can reveal the truth and bring freedom. Witchcraft Beyond the Obvious When we hear the word witchcraft, our minds often turn to dark rituals, spells, or occult practices. Yet Scripture paints a broader picture. In Galatians 5:19–21, witchcraft is listed among the works of the flesh — showing us it isn’t just about the occult, but about the heart’s posture of control. “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornnes

A holy posture of heart, anchored in faith and love The way we think shapes the way we live. A Christ-centred mindset is not about striving harder but about surrendering deeper — allowing the Holy Spirit to transform our thoughts, align our attitudes with God’s truth, and guide our steps in love. These seven anchors of mindset remind us that when our minds are renewed in Christ, our lives can bear lasting fruit for His Kingdom. M — Mastery (of Mind & Spirit) Mastery begins wi

"Because healing isn’t just a process — it’s a promise." What if healing was never meant to be a finish line but an unfolding — a sacred invitation back to wholeness? What if healing wasn’t just recovery, but rebirth ? This is the heart behind Healing 💔heARTs💖  — not simply a message I share, but a movement etched into canvas, colour, and Spirit-breathed expression. A visual reflection of the sacred journey from ashes to beauty, from silence to song. I’ve lived it. Maybe yo

I recently sat with a dear friend in my studio — a space where many tears have been poured into paint — and what she shared broke my heart. She works in a church office. And yet, the words that surfaced were not what you’d expect from a place of faith: bullying, manipulation, dishonour, control. She feels silenced. Afraid. Wounded by the very leaders who should be carrying the heart of Christ. Sadly, her story is not isolated. Over the years, I’ve heard many such testimonies
