A little update from the warmth and sunshine!

Yes, I did write warmth, and that isn’t written in a “it’s nice and snugly inside” way. It’s actually really warm today. Around 20 degrees Celsius! Not bad taking into consideration that the snow only melted yesterday. So I’m sat here with my laptop on the kitchen counter, perched on one of the high stools. The veranda door is open and I can hear birds twittering away. It’s lovely. Reminds me that I really do believe I was created for warmer climates!

I realised I had a moment, and then realised I hadn’t written on my blog for a while, and so I thought I’d might as well combine the two.

Life is good. The other day we were driving along when 6 or 7 deer decided to cross the road as we were speeding down it. Thankfully we weren’t driving too quickly and could calmly slow down and stop to watch them crossing. It was spectacular- reminds me that we are not in the thick of the city. I’m just surprised they don’t get scared off, but then I supposed they’ve had to get used to traffic and people since they probably don’t have many wildlife places to be anymore.

Today is the start of our 3-day “Passion 4 Jesus” conference and so some extra healing and prophecy teams for me. This morning at our 6-8 am healing rooms session I think we had about double the normal amount of people come. It’s cool when people come in with pain and leave without it because we prayed and Jesus healed. I am excited that people can come this weekend to experience God more and get a deeper relationship with Him. It’s all about building up the church so that we can see His Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.

Other then that I don’t think much has happened really, not that I can think about at the moment anyway. And writing this I must say I am very tempted to make the most of the nice weather and pop out for a little stroll. Thing is here, that even if the weather is absolutely stunning, most of my day is spent inside (and actually the prayer room is pretty cold so I forget it’s warm outside)- but there is nothing like a few sunrays to bring out a smile.

On that note, I shall post this onto my blog and head out.

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....

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...

Small moments that mean a lot

Walking home on the crunchy snow that lights up a December evening,  I felt so thankful. The revelation that fellowship and being together is the best gift you can give someone, and realising that although it might seem small, it can turn into something big when a person feels seen and valued.  Yesterday I helped out with a crafts workshop for a group of lovely women volunteering for Crux where I worked before (well, in all honesty: they were making angels while I ate Christmas cookies, Quality Street chocolate, and chatted). I love walking alongside people in conversation, and realise sharing life for 2 hours can last so much longer in value and experience.  This evening we had our Christmas dinner for volunteers and people who are part of my current job. It was a delightful evening with many nations gathered around the same table…. eating the same food… and for a few hours creating a small fellowship moment that will become a good memory for the future. Often in my job ...
