For mother's day my mother decided to buy me a locket necklace (complete with "mum" engraved on it). Which brought me to the question: "am i a teen, (18 at last) or am i a woman?". I decided i was neither as i thought i couldn't be defined. Since all this i've felt that i don't belong to any group at all, i'm uniquely individual (although there's got to be some other people in my position).

I am Monica. I am an advisor and a warrior, a spiritual sniper -I may listen, and seem hesitant to reply, but when I do, more often than not, His wisdom hits you between the eyes. I am a literary craftswoman. God helps me to process concepts through imagery in literacy. So I use my words to create pictures, and pray best when I have a picture in mind. I am a chaplain. God uses my chaplain heart to easily relate to those who are lonely, hurt or rejected. In the past, I have been through significant hurt which allows me to empathise with those who also hurt. He has shown me that he is with me through it all - not in a distant, watchful way, but in a way that resembles an intimate dance. He is my life's breath. I am Seen. Seen by my heavenly father, even when others don't see me - and often they don't. My weakness and frailty, my anxiety and reluctance is often the conduit for God's strength to be seen and his glory known. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Matt 5:7
