Good times

It's been a great month. I went to spain with my girls that was pretty amazing. I've worked an awful lot, and then I went to a caravan with people from my small group. Monday morning I was in a horrenous mood, I felt a little like giving up, not because life isn't amazing but because sometimes I wish I could be in heaven where health is certain, happiness normal, relationship tension impossible, and God abundant. Maybe it's only me, but I get really fed up with how this all isn't the case on earth!

Anyhoodle, as ever, prayer answers all so a good sesh with a friend and then a good sesh on my own seemed to adjust perspectives so that I am reminded of my purposes in this place at this time, even if simply to become more intimate with Him. It's not good just to let seasons pass us by as we wish on the new ones, yet we so often do it.

And now I'm attending the Heaven Touches Earth conference and am reminded of God's promise in Philippians 1v6 'And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.' I have so many dreams of ways that God would use me, to see more people healed, to bring joy where there is brokeness, hope where it was lost... and sometimes, ironically, I lose hope that any of this will ever come to pass. BUT GOD has promised to keep on working on my imperfect self until the day of Jesus Christ. Praise God!

I have also seem tremendous freedom where there was previously unbelief. Did you know that God longs for us to have JOY in His presence. Well, you probably did, but I fail to live it, or I used to.

A man with a nose bone problem that meant he couldn't breathe through it since birth got healed today, and a breast lump disappeared, amongst many other things that my silly mind has forgotten. What a good God.

This certainly isn't a boring lifestyle that I have chosen! There is so so soooo much more to come! MORE LORD!!!
