A warm welcome to my website
Hi, I’m Lyn, author of Royal Birds: God’s Overcoming Daughters. I have a vision I’d like to share with you- and I invite you to become part of it in your own unique way....

The Vision

I see many dazzling white swans swimming on a river- these beautiful birds are full of God’s glory. The birds have come together from many brooks and tributaries and the river is becoming a wide estuary as it meets the sea- but the swans are not afraid.

These glorious swans are strong and resilient birds; they are not weak, but are well able to complete the journey that lies ahead. Their feathers remain pure white, as day after day, the river of grace washes the dust of the earth’s atmosphere away.

They have an inward compass and know that they have been created for this journey. As the waters rise, so they rise- they are supernaturally anointed to thrive as the water  becomes deeper and deeper and wider and wider.
The river is immense, and the birds look small by comparison, yet they swim with confidence. They swim on and on, finally completing their journey and landing at the foot of a throne, where Jesus is sitting and waiting to welcome them home. 


The meaning of the vision

God is calling a generation of women to live powerfully for Christ because they know their true identities as  precious, royal daughters.  

These ‘royal birds’ are beautiful in their Father’s eyes and they know it. 

Because they are secure in their identities, royal daughters do amazing things for God and live with a sense of purpose and destiny. They reach out to others with love and generosity, spreading the good news about Jesus and making a difference to society. 

They know their Father intimately and draw their strength from him. They have a God-given resilience and can survive even through tough times.
