Communication

TGF Him reassuring me yet again... telling me it will all happen if I just Trust Him and am faithful (book called 'My Dear Child' this time).

TGF a much needed talk yesterday.. one I was dreading, but that went through difficult and tears to leave us parting much closer. Think God is letting me know what I need to do, and reassuring me that He is doing the rest... I've learned that when I'm not in control God is free to do His stuff.

TGF the talk on Tuesday that I would never have made happen.. but through "chance" God made it happen. I hope I said what I was supposed to. I seem a bit more sure too about the path God has mined up for me. Its a scary one, but I don't think I will walk it alone. God made all of us. He made all of us different. He made us exactly how we are for his purposes. Its a slow process learning to go from hating how he made us, and how it makes life difficult for us (would often give anything to be straight, NT etc) to seeing that maybe these things give us a unique position from which to fufill his unique purposes for us.

Great.. but I do need some sleep!

TGF the thinking and talking together we do in the early hours. TGF how he uses what seem at the time like bad arguements with people to help me see things more clearly.

Read it... read it now

TGF the shack. Just finished it. Tears. Probably written about in on this blog before. But again.. TGF the shack.. and how it has helped me understand God, and how our relationship with him works, how we communicate, how his plans and our choices work together.

God puts people in your life..

TGF wise words from Wendy..

and TGF my first ever open and honest conversation with my Mum... who knew everything anyway cos I am incapable of hiding my feelings.

Answered prayers

TGF answering lots of prayers that my MT arch would hold out and my tummy would behave.. did good in the Race for Life.. 21:37.. third place.. better than last year. Happy to have achieved my target.

When you need it

TGF how God uses all sorts of stuff to help you when you really need it..

Angels and Demons.. p532.. on answered prayer and God talking to us..

"Sometimes, divine revelation simply means adjusting your brain to hear what your heart already knows"

The Ark

TGF the Ark and all the lovely people there. The Ark is the group I went to with Luke last night at the church in Woodhouse Eaves. Most of the people there had learning difficulties of varying degrees. I felt really touched by them, how friendly they were and how they shared their news with each other. I loved how they danced in the worship songs and how they laughed at the drama sketch of Moses' story. I finally gave up and just cried near the end, during the prayers when we were passing round a cross.. and one person just thanked Jesus for being her friend and her saviour. Have to admit tho that I did laugh when one guy told God the date and time and address for the concert he was playing in. Bless.

This was the best church thing I have been to in ages.. because we were all coming to Jesus... as children.. just how he wants us to.
