"being the change" is actually easier than it seems.

Hey guys,
how are you all doing?

Since 2009 and being made an admin I have never updated this blog, mainly because I had nothing to write about.

BUT...
I just got back from the Hillsong Women's Conference in Sydney about a week ago and it was AMAZING.

I was mind-blown to see the amount of women at the conference and during worship, women were raising their hands up high in total surrender and just think about it-
God has a relationship with each and every one of these women.
What an amazing God we serve, isn't it?


The auditorium was PACKED to the brim!
 This conference brings women from the four corners of the globe together to inspire us to BE a world changer.
So the true heart of the Sisterhood is more than just sympathising with someone going through a difficult time. It’s deeper than that. It involves compassion, which commands response from our heart, as does empathy– it’s about every day girls, rolling up their sleeves and seeking to make a difference in their world... and not only that but inspiring others to make that difference also.

I was briefed about the human trafficking scene in Greece and Ukraine.
Every second 1 girl is being tricked / forced into prostitution, and the same goes to kids as young as 3! can you imagine that?!

Yes, human trafficking is not something new- it is rather something that has become normal and common.

How on earth did the abnormal become normal that we become so accustomed to it that sometimes, really, we could not be bothered about it?

Can you imagine your sister/mother/yourself having to entertain as many as 50 men a day? Yes, it is a fact.

So I was really moved by this that I couldn't just sit and say nothing about this.

During one of a club meeting at my (new) college, I just spoke for 5 mins about this and an organization that I am currently supporting called 'A21'
and guess what? the committee actually bought my proposal and they are looking to organize a charity dinner (yes, those kind of dinners where the tickets are expensive) to raise thousands of dollars for this.

I really am just an ordinary everyday girl,

Amazing how just opening your mouth could bring about change in the world.
