About The Writer
Barbara Harry
BARBARA HARRY. Raised in Hamilton, New Zealand, Barbara has discovered through her experiences in nursing, pastoral care and burnout, that waiting has a purpose. “It’s how we wait that matters,” suggests Barbara. Learning how to ‘be’ rather than to ‘do’ is a journey Barbara has been on since experiencing burnout. Observing the life-cycle miracle of the monarch in her garden became a personal metamorphosis. “The butterfly won’t survive if it’s assisted out of the chrysalis before due time!” Barbara admits that she loves words, especially puns, and The WORD, being strongly influenced by her paternal heritage. “I’m painting pictures with words, and giving images a voice.” Barbara is amazed at the creative juices flowing in her latter years. “I’ve been like a lady-in-waiting ... through prayers and tears for years!” Barbara’s creative juices flow into providing reflective spaces for people. This exudes from a passion to lead others, especially weary, battered pilgrims, to learn to reflect and experience Yeshua Messiah’s rest. Barbara currently resides in Hamilton.
