Unleashed? Definitely!
My childhood was not an easy one, due to an undiagnosed disease since birth.

How I Came To Faith
How you come to faith may be an immediate event, or a struggle over a long period of time. For me, it was the latter. Born with an undiagnosed disease, which had me screaming in pain as a child, I was constantly told off.
A NAUGHTY LITTLE GIRL
'For goodness sake be...

Thank You Father: For Your Gifts
Have you ever thought about what led you into a certain career? Or whether you've wished you'd taken a different route?
My longing, as a teenager, was to become an actress, but my parents thought otherwise. My father wanted me to go to university, an aspiration my mother shot down, telling...

Thank You Lord: For Your Healing Hands
'Your daughter needs to go to hospital, so I shall have to send for an ambulance,' said the doctor.
Close to tears, I stood at the foot of Sarah's bed, where she lay, semi-conscious.
'She has encephalitis,' the doctor explained. 'It's a serious condition – inflammation of the brain.'
I'd only recently recovered...

Antidotes To Vandalism
Vandalism! Is it fun? Well, it would appear to be so.
Strolling through the parks, on our usual daily walk, I pointed out to my husband a young tree that had been damaged.

We then saw two more....

A Miraculous Moment
Have you ever experienced an episode in your life that was so thrilling you'll never forget it? Perhaps it was the healing of a friend or family member whose death seemed imminent. Or the acceptance of a job application you didn't think you would receive? Or perhaps it was a...

God Has A Plan
Born with a painful intestine disease
My childhood was anything but a breeze.

'She's seeking attention, naughty and bold.'
Reprimands and smacked bottoms followed,
Banished to my room, I hollered and hollered.
But God had a plan, he helped me break free
