Welcome!

Hi, I’m Karen. Thanks for calling in!

I started this blog as a place to write about some of the lessons I’ve been learning as a Christian woman, wife, and mother. I hope there will be something here to encourage your heart. Grab your favourite hot (or cold) drink, find a (semi) quiet corner and join me as I remind my heart to look up to God as I journey through this life.

My life verse is Psalm 27.1. “The Lord is the strength of my life”. The tagline, “relying on God in real life” is a reminder to me to put my trust and hope in God for the ordinary things of life and the different challenges I face. I hope you will join me on this journey!

About Me

Hi, I’m Karen. Grateful to be… a Christian woman, wife to Paul and mum to four boys who are now tumbling into and through their teens. I enjoy… reading, playing the piano, chatting to my boys and husband, the quietness of early mornings, and catching up with friends for some good conversation.

I am far from being or having everything perfect, but so thankful for a Saviour who forgives, redeems, renews, restores and whose strength is made perfect in weakness.  And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (2 Corinthians 12 v 9)
