Getting on with things!


Just returned from Worship practice where we all gave feedback about the Conference, how we had overcome and grown in God throughout the week. Then we were talking about the production of a CD of the worship songs that members of the group had written and it’s going to be very exciting journeying with them as this production comes into being.
Duncan is making bacon sandwiches for us as we haven’t had tea yet!
Today after Bible School we went to Canal Walk and did a bit of shopping and then came back and Duncan had a conference Skype with his Uncle David in Las Vegas and his mum in Dewsbury! Technology never ceases to amaze us.
The weather today has been stunning again – bright sun and not much wind, though the nights are drawing in.
Tomorrow the Bible students (that’s us!) are going into a special needs school to perform the extract from Job again. We have to meet at church at 6am so that will mean getting up at 5 at the latest. Then I’ll have a night in on my own as Duncan will be going to the leaders’ meeting in the evening. Saturday we are having a braai at Chantal and Aje’s – that will be lovely as we tend not to see much of Chantal. Samson, one of the Bible students is coming too. He is from Mozambique and has one of the widest smiles I have ever seen.
Mmmmm. Contentment is wonderful. We are very tired, we are very challenged on a number of fronts but we are very happy and contented as we know we are in the perfect will of God. That is the thing you know – God has a perfect will for your life, not just any old will, any old way of serving him. Ask Him to reveal it to you and then go, go, go!
Must go, bacon sandwich calling!
The picture was one taken when we went for our walk on our beach! Awesome. This is the most beautiful place on earth!

  1. Sometimes God just overwhelms us with the beauty of a place and our response is a heartfelt 'Thank You Lord'I know where we live is far from being the perfect places you describe there, but I had a moment outside in the garden at 5a.m. this morning, when it was the time when all the birds sing and the sun was low over Crackenedge , but very bright and it gradually flamed up into the sky and lit up all the garden and the beautiful spring flowers. It was so wonderful and a perfect start to the day. I believe I am where God wants me at this precise moment in time but tomorrow - who knows? Only God knows. He is wise enough to give us one day at a time.Enjoy every moment of every day. Love to you both from Pam/Mumxx

  2. It was a great conference and it takes ages to take it all in. I had a couple of e-mails responding to the word I shared on the Wednesday which shows God was working. It takes time for fruit to develop.

    E-mail me the feedback on the Conference sometime. Enjoy the time there. Weather here 25 today and Sunny!

  3. Talking of Skype, I bought a headset yesterday, now I've just got to work out how to use it :-) (Hopefully will soon!)
