A short little note.

It's been a while since I wrote, so I thought I'd just write a really really (seriously this time) short little note to say I'm still well and loving my time here! Time is just so packed and I seem to be getting home at night feeling like the day just went, yet amazed at how much was packed in!

This week we're learning the "Harp & Bowl" model which is the combination of worship (music and singing) and intercession (prayer) they use here. It's really kind of what makes it possible to keep going 24/7 without it getting boring. So I am excited to learn about that. We had a conference last weekend called "Passion for Jesus" which was great. And I got to be a part of the prophetic ministry in it, which was very exciting and I learnt so much.

For some of you it might seem like I'm writing in a different language as you have no idea what worship, interecession, prophetic and all that means, but it's all good, exciting God-stuff. And you're welcome to ask if you want me to explain it to you.

That ends yet another "rapid" entry from the coffeeshop computer. You'll be reassured to know that my Earl Grey is sat next to me, soon to be no more.

Packing...again.

I just folded the last load of laundry and I’m almost packed. Off to the airport at 5am tomorrow morning, heading off to Amsterdam. I’m excited, a bit nervous, and wondering what it’ll be like. It’s been a good week at home with lots of quality time with family, especially the little nieces and nephew. I’m glad I’ll see them in April again. Well, not much to write and packing to be done and a bit of sleep would probably be a good idea too. Next time I write it’ll be from Amsterdam....

Single-tasking September: The art of single-tasking.

To change habits and ways of life, the motivation for change has to be strong, and the benefits outweigh the effort it takes to make the change.  For so long it’s seemed like the ability to multitask has been regarded as a great skill, but is it really a good thing? Recovering from burn-out, one of the effects I noticed was that it was harder to concentrate, and especially tricky trying to focus on many things at once. I’d try to multitask, only to realise that all tasks suffered from lack of capacity to complete any one of them. The challenge is that the habit of always doing many things at once goes deep, and when I tried to focus on just one thing, I found that it was actually really difficult.  As I did a little google search on the matter, I found it seems like multitasking isn’t as healthy as once thought, and that it doesn’t help productivity. Some even referred to it as “switch tasking”, in the sense that the brain isn’t doing many things at once, but shifting rapidly...

Snapshots of life...

Life. What is life anyway? And what does it mean to live life to the full? A little reflection there. One thing I do know is that I am alive and that the days seem to pass by quicker then I would like them to. The month of July has literally flown by... I can’t believe this weekend it’ll already be August. Where did July go? It’s been an eventful month. Last week was my birthday and I felt very loved and valued. Going for a Brazilian BBQ with some friends in a week or so and I am very excited!! I really hope it’s authentic and good, or I think I will most certainly be a tad disappointed. I also got given a car, almost on the day of my birthday. A good friend of mine got given another car and so she gave me her old one. It took a week and a bit for the garage to fix it up and pass it in the inspection, and getting it licensed in my name and getting insurance wasn’t totally straightforward, but I now have it. And it feels so freeing and lovely when I’m driving my own car!!! It’s a golden...
