ABiDE Spiritual Direction with Vanessa Vermaak

A quiet, Christ‑centred space to listen, to rest, and to abide in God’s loving presence.

Welcome

At ABIDE, spiritual direction is a gentle and prayerful relationship where you are invited to slow down, breathe deeply, and attend to God’s presence in the real places of your life. Our times together offer a peaceful, grounded space to discern God’s invitations, explore what He is doing beneath the surface, and grow in intimacy with Jesus.

Many describe our time together as:

– Calming

– Deeply Encouraging

– Spirit led

– Biblically rooted

– A place where you feel fully seen and held

This is the heart of abiding—remaining, dwelling, staying connected to the One who gives life (John 15)

  • “Vanessa creates a sacred, unhurried space where I felt deeply listened to. It brought clarity, peace, and a renewed awareness of God’s presence in my life.”
  • “I felt held in a safe, prayerful space where I could slow down, breathe, and name what was stirring within me without pressure or agenda.”
  • “Her gentle, discerning questions helped me notice God’s movements and gave language to things I sensed but hadn’t yet understood.”

Sessions are designed to meet you where you are, fostering a deep connection with the divine.
