Twice a Daddy’s Girl

Anyone who knows me even remotely knows how much I love love, and if you know me closely, you will know just how much it has changed me over the years.

Another thing I love is writing. Undoubtedly, I read more than I write, but early last year, I got into journaling, and it changed my life. Before I did, I forgot just how much I loved writing and how much I learned through it. In the past seven months, I have realised who I am and to whom I belong. I have lived slowly and enjoyed smelling the roses. I have lain back and watched God fight several battles for me. Above all, I have basked in the beauty of being loved wholly, truly, thoroughly and unashamedly.

I say that I am a Daddy’s girl twice over, and if that is not the truth, I do not know what is. My dad, Saint, as he was called by his guys way back when, is one of my favourite people. He has written for decades, sharing God’s word with as many as will listen, with occasional ‘drags’, humour, and everything in between. Growing up, most conversations with him always ‘circled back’ to how much God loves us and how He is our Father. This is something I am very grateful for.

When you add the first man I ever loved to my love for writing and my love for Love (1 John 4:16), and throw in the decades between us, you get La Vie Sauvée, a triple-braided cord formed by two very imperfect people and their perfect God.

It is an absolute honour to do this with Saint, and while LVS will not last forever, I know that for this season and for as long as God permits, we will share what He wants us to.

Our earnest prayer is that the love of God seeps through every piece we share with you, meeting you at your point of need and being exactly what you need to read or hear in whatever season you are in.

Till we chat again.

We love you; however, God loves you much more.

We love because He first loved us (1 John 4:19 NIV)
