On Saturday afternoon, the bell rang. My mom opened the door, and I stood behind her. I got the fright of my life: Standing in front of me was a 6-year-old girl, wearing a clown mask with a clown outfit. For a moment, my mom and I were confused. What on earth was going on? …
Throughout the years, I’ve identified with many characters in the Bible. At first, it was the life of Joseph. Then it became Esther, then Joseph again. Then it was the tragic story of Tamara, and then I identified with the beggar who threw off his cloak of identity. I also love the story of Jacob …
What a year this has been so far. I started focused, ready to take on everything that came my way. But then… I got distracted with other things, and it kept me occupied for most of the year. I couldn’t understand what was happening. That’s why it so so great to listen to prophetic leaders, …
In September, I attended a conference in Hartenbos. One of the themes for the weekend was ROAR – that it is time to ‘make our voices be heard’. I didn’t pay attention to the theme until I started walking around town during the breaks. In almost every shop I went into, people commented on my …
‘The pure in heart will see God.’ Jesus Every night, I light the candles in my bathroom before taking a bath. It’s a relaxing ritual, and it is something I look forward to doing every night. When I light the match, I pay attention to the whooshing sound it makes, and the smell that comes …

These comments come especially from married women, because ‘they know what they’re talking about, for they’re married…’ and I’m …
‘Idols always break the heart of their worshippers.’ C.S. Lewis At the beginning of this year, I received a strong prophetic word regarding a season shift that is meant to happen in my life this year. I started getting confirmation upon confirmation until I couldn’t keep up with all the signs. It became overwhelming because …
This week, keys have been popping up everywhere. On Tuesday, I had coffee with a friend of mine. She told me of two separate incidents that involved keys: The first was where she had moved into a new house. She found a key lying on the floor, but it didn’t fit anywhere. It didn’t open …
Sometimes a prophetic word will keep repeating itself until you finally get it. In 2016, the word ‘royalty’ kept popping up everywhere. People prophesied that word over me, some drew pictures of crowns and gave it to me, some simply wrote the word ROYALTY on index cards and gave it to me. I was in …
