Dear Vashti, we see you.

by Emma Mupdated on August 28, 2020November 20, 2018Leave a Comment on Dear Vashti, we see you.

(It is recommended that you read Esther 1:1-22 before reading this. Or afterwards) Vashti, we are told that you disrespected the king. How is this possible? You were summoned to show yourself in before the king in the presence of his friends. We are not told how many times you were paraded before the friends …

Starting is never easy

by Emma Mupdated on September 4, 2018September 28, 2018Leave a Comment on Starting is never easy

So, about a week ago I started going to the gym. Well, at the moment I’m simply a guest. Previous gym experience turned horrific, then terrible and I’m still recovering from that. But, nevertheless, I’m training again. At the same time, I have resumed my jogging; shorter distance though due to the merger of the …

The Nun: Horrific horror

by Emma Mupdated on September 9, 2018September 9, 2018Leave a Comment on The Nun: Horrific horror

I’m somewhat traumatized. Traumatized just because I watched a movie. The plot is fairly simple. A priest is summoned by the Vatican and is sent to investigate what they suppose to be suicide committed by one of the nuns in a small rural town in Romania. He is told to find and take with him …

What kind of custodian are you?

by Emma Mupdated on September 9, 2018September 6, 2018Leave a Comment on What kind of custodian are you?

When speaking of a custodian, we are referring to a person who has a responsibility over something or someone. This responsibility is for taking care of or protecting the object thereof. In the parable in Matthew 21:33 – 46 we see two types of custodians who are custodians of different things. First, the tenants are …

Breaking through the asphalt

by Emma Mupdated on September 4, 2018August 23, 20182 Comments on Breaking through the asphalt

It’s amazing how much nature can teach humanity without even saying a word. In the middle of my journey through life, I’m experiencing moments where I feel as though it’s enough. As though I can’t take anymore and I should just backdown and stop trying to move forward. Then as I was walking into the …

When the going gets tough

by Emma Mon June 29, 2018June 29, 20181 Comment on When the going gets tough

Keeping healthy is hard work. I promise you, abs look great. Biceps even look better. But, the trouble that men and even women go through to look good and be healthy in general is like a dare from hell. Especially if you have started and stopped.   I have become the professor of start and …

Growth: It’s all in your hand

by Emma Mupdated on June 25, 2019May 24, 20181 Comment on Growth: It’s all in your hand

The thought of being employed and receiving a monthly salary is embedded so deep in our being that we cannot separate from it. We study so that we can get employed. If we can’t afford tertiary education we deem ourselves useless and often worthless. Being employed on the other hand is the best thing ever. …

She said to herself …

by Emma Mupdated on June 30, 2018April 24, 20181 Comment on She said to herself …

Some times we think that there is some motivational speaker somewhere in the world that will speak life into our lives and automatically things will fall into place. I have come to learn that as much as motivational speakers inspire us, the greatest motivation comes from within ourselves.   It’s not what others tell you …

No greater time than this

Listen to the beat of your heart, Hear the song in your soul, Observe the direction in which the trees sway, Feel the force of the breeze, Spread them wings, flap them and go.   You have seen what is to come, You understand what needs to be done, You know how you ought to …

The irony of a teacher

by Emma Mupdated on June 25, 2019January 11, 20181 Comment on The irony of a teacher

I have spent my young adulthood and most of my adult life teaching younger ones to follow their hearts.

All this time I was …
