Love in Action Journey

Hello lovelies. I have always been drawn to blogs that share straight from the heart. That was my intention when I stared blogging, to write on this blog an expression of what goes on in my heart. I prefer to live my life out in the open. I remember once reading Lisa Bevere share that she too lives her life out in the open so that the devil never has any of her secrets to broadcast ;-) I love that! I have come to experience that truth truly does set free! (John 8:32). Today is one of those honest posts ... a heart to heart of where I am at in this season of my life. I would so like to get regular posts out there more often, but in truth, I am in a season of learning a new pace. Have you ever found yourself having to reassess your "usuals" ... your usual routine, usual focus, usual places where you give your attention to. That's where I am at right now, realising that a new season is at hand. As  much as change can make me feel uncomfortable, I have learned so many times ...

Soooooooo precious friends ... we finally found out last week that we are having a sweet baby boy!!! Meet Zac Robinson :0) Hubby whooped SO LOUD when the Doctor told us! It was such a precious memory that we shared with our two very excited daughters. They are thrilled to be having a baby brother! It was such an emotional moment to see our son and hear his strong heart beat. We have been carrying two names in our heart ... Gabriel and Zac. When we read the meanings we knew that he is indeed a "Zac". The meaning is "God has remembered". 2 years ago my gorgeousness and I asked Father God for a son and God has remembered indeed! What a delight this little boy is to us already. Brett and I just keep grinning at each other. We feel so privileged that we will be able to parent both girls and a little boy! THANK YOU LORD!!! If you need any encouragement today ... may you be encouraged that God does hear and does remember the desires of your heart! All my love, Jan...

My hubby is full of smiles today. His best buddy arrived from Cape Town to spend the day with us. David is such an encourager. He has a way of changing the atmosphere wherever he goes. It got me thinking ... isn't that exactly what God desires to do through each of us every day ... encourage and be His voice and arms to those around us.  Hebrews 3:13 says "Exhort / encourage one another daily, while it is called "Today", lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin." There are so many sneaky little things that distract us and harden our hearts in this world ... but a simple word of encouragement has the power to soften our hearts and breathe new life into our soul and dreams.  Whatever you do today ... be somebody's encourager! You are God's voice and arms to those around you.  All my love xxx Janine
