It’s the first of July, and in the midst of a winter chill, and I saw. How candles can flicker on right through the night, and hope can be served right there when the heart is healed right here, and that the way to see the light of day is to walk through the length of night. Because…
When I listen ted talks such as Dolph Lundgren’s on the healing and forgiveness story of his childhood abuse, I’m moved by the pain he’d have suffered as a child, and challenged to stop that pain from bleeding and perpetuating into a person adult life. There’s a part of you that dies when you’re faced with a pain that…
To us who once believed that our grandest, noblest intention always guarantees our highest and purest attention — We don’t get it at times. We don’t always get the fact that life hurts, hearts break, and love leaks. That we can stand under the here and now, and all that orbiting Sun and stars around…
I used to not believe it. Even doubted to declare it. That the minutia of one simple life and all the infinitesimal moments of an ordinary day could actually add up to one meaningful, momentous and memorable life. I mean — can really flipping pancakes every morning and folding PJs every night lead you towards your calling?…
September 26, 2019Liz.W “Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran.” (Genesis 28:10) Jacob of the Bible — he ran. He ran from the comfort of home. And from the people he loved. He ran with the lie that it’s a birth order that’s needed to make him right in life. That it’s the firstborn right that would set him right…

Because the art of living isn’t mainly about the ending. The art of living is about the waiting. Because it is in the waiting that you allow the…
FeaturedLiz.W Happy happy Tuesday! And no matter what side of the bed you wake up to, you can have a different ending by the night! Believe it — whatever has happened to you that might have broken you or whatever is happening to you right now that is tearing at you — or no matter what is happening in our…
FeaturedLiz.W So, there’d been months of us groping around in the dark trying to find light at the end of a long, trying tunnel. There was no shortcutting it; and we’ve all had our turns. First, our littlest and her battle with severe chronic constipation, then my long-recurrence of fissuring fingers that keep breaking my skin…
FeaturedLiz.W Recently our little home was rocked by the Husband’s sudden health challenges. At the height of diagnoses unconfirmed, he wrote vulnerably, sharing his sobering realisation of our human frailty. Sitting in a hospital room with my face tripping, not being able to smile laugh, let alone smile, and it hit me. If I have…
There’s just something about Lyss, my friend, that reveals the kind of brave faith I know would have only come about through the work of inner surrender. She tells her story; a story she prefers never to have, but one in which she sees pain having transformative power bringing about purpose and peace. With grit…
