Tune my heart

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount, I’m fixed upon it,
Mount of Thy redeeming love.
Rotating the pegs
to stretch or relieve the string
 to produce the acceptable pitch

Turning the dial to adjust 
the frequency
to the required signal

Balancing each part
in order for the machine
to run smoothly and efficiently

Altering attitudes and actions
to adjust to a 
new purpose or situation


  Tune my heart oh God, 
remind me of the 
hidden gems 
that are hidden in one's heart.
Fill me with Love;
brimming joy
 that freely flows to others. 
Gift me with words 
to lift up 
and not pull down.
Let me be a river 
of your grace.


Rotating, Turning,
Balancing, Altering.

Tune my heart.

Day 8: A piece of advice you have for others. Anything at all.



This is not my advice of course but it is a powerful one. Sometimes we can get so caught up in our own battles that we forget to look into the hearts of others.

Their feathers are just too bright

Day 4: Favorite quote and why you love it

I am a words-loving girl so I found this day refreshing, yet difficult to choose my favorite.

If I think about it I can have different quotes that mean something to me every single day. But this one I am sharing I know I use a lot.

'I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, that part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up DOES rejoice. But still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend.' 
Red from The Shawshank Redemption

It helps me when I think of friends and family who have passed, lost friends along the way, my childhood and memories.

What I really love about this quote is the part that talks about rejoicing, and how their feathers were just too bright. Too bright to be kept to just that moment. It is reassuring and puts to words how I feel about loss.

And it sure is a brilliant movie. x

I'm nearly caught up!

It is the greatest of all mistakes 
to do nothing because you can only do little 
- do what you can.

A little-big word

How has your new year started? I am loving this year so far and I hope you are too!

For me, 2013 has started off with a bang, especially with the realization that I have lots to learn about being a mum and knowing I will be holding on as our next adventure unfolds. 

I see 2013 as an exciting year of new experiences and growth for us as a family but especially myself personally. 

I want to share an important word for me this year. Instead of making new year resolutions, I choose a word for my year as many others do. 

My word this year is empower. 

 ' To invest with power, to equip or supply with an ability; enable ' 


I want this little-big word to encompass my thoughts and actions on many levels. I don't want to just empower myself by own actions this year, my desire is to be empowered by my Lord and King. To seek his face earnestly and to come into a new confidence through new revelations. 

Being a family of three, is so special right now. I also want to empower my hubby to be the best leader and father he can be. I want to hold to our vows in new and fresh way.  

Lastly, my job is very people-orientated and I want this little-big word to permeate into my working life as well. I want to be a person of influence in a new and unique way ~ I don't know what this is yet but I feel it bubbling up inside me; to develop a new way of supporting people around me. I love to encourage and equip people to be successful and I want to empower people to reach new levels in themselves. This truly excites me!  

Thanks for tuning in here and I pray that 2013 is a year that opens new opportunities and joy to you.

' Just think, you're here not by chance,
but by God's choosing. His hand formed
you and made you the person you are.
He compares you to no one else - you
are one of a kind. You lack nothing
that His grace can't give you. He has
allowed you to be here at the time in
history to fulfill His special purpose for 
this generation.'

Words-Loving Girl // William Arthur Ward

 For me words stimulate and breathe hope and joy into my life. I want to start to share quotes and words with you all. My hope is that you feel uplifted and encouraged through these prose. I am a words-loving girl!

                      " 
I will do more than belong - I will participate.

I will do more than care - I will help.  

I will do more than believe - I will practise. 

I will do more than be fair - I will be kind. 

I will do more than forgive - I will forget. 

I will do more than dream - I will work. 

I will do more than teach - I will inspire. 

I will do more than earn - I will enrich. 

I will do more than give - I will serve. 

I will do more than live - I will grow. 

I will do more than suffer - I will triumph.    
                                                                       "
William Arthur Ward
