Jeanne & Dylan's Engagement

I was blessed to share in Jeanne & Dylan's engagement on Friday the 25th September. X and I had fun helping where we could. Congrats you two, all things beautiful and blessed in your new adventure together!

spring clean!

It's Spring and everything around me seems to be singing along! It's the most beautiful thing when life and people reflect the season you find yourself in...

Outside my bedroom window the bare Jacaranda tree is releasing the first purple petals, the sun wakes me up with it's heat at 6am, the smell of jasmine and yesterday/today/tomorrow welcomes me as I walk to my car, fruit and water and all things cold seem the most welcoming on the menu, swimming breaks my week with frequent visits...all of these seem to be the natural 'fruit' of this new season.

And spontaneously the lives, hearts and faces of friends and family around me seem to follow the change of season too; hearts are blooming, engagements and declarations of love are being bravely pursued, dreams and hope for the days that lie ahead sing full of promises in the conversations I find myself in, pink, green and orange are worn in t-shirts, floral dresses and eyes, God's promises for this country, for this continent ring in my ears over and over, letting go and allowing God to bring growth and blooming is inevitable - I can go on!

And finally we're moving office's this week which means - spring cleaning! Never has it been such a pleasure (the housewife in me making an appearence, hmmmm ;) Today I've had to pack up and sort through 9 months of work, memory and growth from within my Link media office. As a church this year as been one of tremendous growth, and it's the most amazing thing to reflect and remember all the moments while sorting through my office.

I'm reminded in this season, and in the packed boxes in front of me that it is truly beautiful to place one's life and heart in the will of the Lord. He creates the most beautiful and perfectly timed end products!!!
