273I have always loved bold pieces of vintage jewellery that make a real fashion statement. I can appreciate the genius creativity, the craftsmanship, the originality and attention for detail. When younger and going out on the town I would often dress up in my hats and peplum suits from the 40s. My outfit wasn’t complete without matching accessories, handbags, shoes and coats from that era. To be perfectly honest I love anything vintage. I thought why not enjoy wearing some of these beautiful fashion pieces now! They aren’t reserved for the young. One of my favourite jewellery designers is Stanley Hagler. His pieces were fun and whimsical although what I am wearing is quite a dramatic piece, but some drama seems to suit me from time to time! I am wearing an original Stanley Hagler N.Y.C. matching floral motif shell, seed pearl necklace and earrings. I love sharing this costume jewellery with you and I hope you enjoy it too. A little sweet reminder of my past. #stanleyhaglernyc #vintagejewelry #40sfashion #vintage #jewelry
9410Today was a brisk day, but lovely and sunny. Had to pick up a pair of reading glasses from a shop on the high street while discovering that pink Ranunculus now rank high up there with pink Peonies as my favourite flowers. They are so pretty! There’s a short cut I sometimes take, a path where there is an old empty derelict home on the corner, but today was different. The abandoned home had been completely gutted, the interior demolished and the exterior completely renovated. I could hardly believe my eyes. The builders did an excellent job and never would have thought it possible, but someone with vision saw the potential of this lonely abandoned building. The new owner could have completely demolished the whole building and rebuilt a new home on the land as it was in a prime location. Instead the owner saw the beauty in this old building that no one else could see and decided to preserve the original structure and clean up the rest. Dear friends when I saw this I thought to myself and so it is with our Creator God and we, his creation. We have messy backgrounds, but he sees the great potential and beauty in each and every one of us even with all of our flaws. The Lord’s love is beyond measure and He just wants a relationship with each and every one of us. It’s a choice only we can make to follow Christ and once we do is when the transformation happens. God specialises in taking broken people and not only transforms them but repurposes them for something Greater just like that derelict home that was waiting around for years to be treasured and beautifully restored. For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made Your works are wonderful I know that full well Psalm 139:13-14 Love and Peace #transformation #transformationjourney

10411Tragically there has been more harm and misery caused by religion because historically religion has been used to control by those in power. So here’s the thing that most people don’t get. Jesus was not religious. He knew the Torah inside and out and was the fulfilment of the law of Moses. He transformed the law of Moses from legalism to a transformation of the human heart. That’s what Jesus does. He transforms hearts. It’s interesting that when the name of Jesus is mentioned it evokes a range of reactions: love, anger, adoration, resistance. Why? Jesus healed the sick, he performed miracles and fulfilled over 300 prophecies from the Old Testament. His heart and actions were pure, yet he had boundaries. He preached nothing but love to the sick, weary and broken hearted. He fought against the religious system of his time- the Pharisees and Sadducees who were the religious leaders, he flipped tables in the Temple when the worship place of God was desecrated. He hung out with the “ill reputes” of society because they yearned for healing, for freedom of the soul and for a better way. Their eyes were opened and they understood what many could not. He willingly sacrificed his life for all human transgressions, was crucified ,and rose again on the 3rd day. He appeared to his apostles and over 500 witnesses. Those who saw his miracles and resurrection fearlessly believed in him as God incarnate. Jesus never waged war against anyone. His resounding message was of love and forgiveness. His followers were transformed with resurrected hearts even though still under Roman occupation. Jesus was a Revolutionary, the Messiah, not just a good man or a prophet. His mission was never to end the Roman occupation, but to free the heart and soul from occupation. I don’t believe there’s a human being on this earth who isn’t broken to some extent. We are all broken, but if you are weary hearted and it’s peace and healing you search for please don’t put off opening your heart to the possibility of Jesus. Ask God to reveal the truth to you about Jesus and prepare for a love beyond anything you could ever imagine. ❤️ and Light My friends

11518Today was a beautiful sunny day. I went out for an Italian hot chocolate with a close friend and it was so relaxing to bask in the sun for a while. On my way home I remembered that there are so many who can’t even enjoy this simple pleasure. As many of you know my heart has been heavy for all of those who unnecessarily suffer in this world and the current genocide in Iran is too much to bear. I continue to pray for the innocent who continue to suffer persecution. At times it is easy to feel powerless as a human being in the face of so much suffering, but then I remind myself that I serve a powerful Almighty God and we are not powerless with His strength. Never underestimate the power of prayer. I always say that prayer can heal when doctors say there are no cures and peace, strength and endurance are provided even in the midst of chaos and violence. I speak only of the peace, strength and endurance that Christ gives. God created every human being to be sovereign, The sovereignty of a human being is non negotiable. The primary responsibility of a government is to represent the needs of its peoole. When a government anywhere in the world harms its people and is tyrannical it no longer deserves the privilege to serve its people. We may have progressed with technology and while everything has changed the reality is that nothing has changed regarding the heart of men with corrupted and evil desires to control and oppress the innocent. However the human spirit can never be destroyed or replaced. We have distanced ourselves so far from God that it feels as though the entire world is falling apart. That gap between man and his reconciliation to God is growing larger and larger, but it is never too late to seek the Lord with an earnest heart and to close that gap. If there was ever a time it is surely now. My prayers are with you brave people of Iran and do not lose hope and like the song goes “Don’t give up cause you have friends” Friends all over the world praying for you and your freedom. ❤️ and Light . . . . . #standwithiran #freeiran #christiansofinstagram #hope #dontgiveup
