When I sat on Victoria's driveway and surrendered When I sat on Victoria's driveway and surrendered my season I expected fireworks, not a bomb site. Here's what I'm finding: there's a perfect plan, an outrageous love and the promise that He takes away to establish. 
It's been really hard to publish this but I really feel that God works through my vulnerability so hope it helps anyone who's facing decisions, struggles or confusion.

I've learnt a fair few lessons over the past 6 mon I've learnt a fair few lessons over the past 6 months. I'm sharing them in the hope they might encourage, be of help or teach somebody something. I feel a bit weird about literally publishing the content of my journal... But if it encourages one person, I feel it's worth it. #linkinbio #distinctivemode #faith #discipleship

This weekend I’m head deep in training with Just Love as I’m taking on a committee role next academic year. It’s been SO good and I’ve learnt so much just in the first day. If you know nothing about justice, take a small step to learn more today. The bible is full of love and also systems, provisions and calls to favour the poor, sustainably steward the world we have and restore broken social relationships.

TRENDY OR TRUE? What is 'social justice?' How do w TRENDY OR TRUE? What is 'social justice?' How do we define 'sustainable living?' Let's explore this ambiguous term and talk about the holistic picture. It's so much more than donating to charity, recycling and following social trends. We make 35,000 decisions every day. This blog post explores some of the ways we can make moreof those decisions count and considerate to others.
This post has come about as I've joined with Just Love, in reading through Tim Keller's Generous Justice. You'll find a link to his book on my site. As always, link in bio!

We make 35,000 decisions everyday. How many of the We make 35,000 decisions everyday. How many of them are sustainable? More importantly do we truly understand what ‘sustainability’ and ‘social justice’ means? I’ve been learning that it’s a lot more than just saving the environment or giving to charity. And, it’s been encouraging to learn that we can start living for more holistic justice right where we are, with whatever we have! Curious? I’ll be talking about this in more detail on the blog very soon. But for now, do let me know what you think ‘social justice’ really means. (Because I myself have always struggled to define it) ⬇️
