In 2012, on the brink of entering university but with no money to finance my studies, I applied for three national scholarships. I know what you are probably thinking: “Yes, she definitely got one!” Sorry to disappoint you, nope I didn’t! I got shortlisted for one scholarship and felt certain that this was the way…
In preparing for God’s visions for our lives for the year ahead, my church Transformation Church (TC), has undertaken a 21-Day of Fasting. In beginning my journey, I prayed and randomly selected a Bible App plan about vision to guide me on my journey. Day 1 gave the story of the 12 Israelites who were…

April 16 was my last day as a 23-year old. I’ve been very contemplative as I review the year that I have gone through. The highs, the lows and the in-betweens.
