He restores my soul...

The last few days have felt rough. It felt like there was a weight upon me and my weary arms could not lift it.

I never have to lift it though, I just need to lean on Him but for those days I wasnt sure if I knew how or if I was or wasnt doing it. It was a struggle to open the Word, it was like my hands couldnt even open it but praise God for recorded teaching, pray and His love which He shows me through my dear dear parents and friends. He softens my heart to a baked potato!

Today I can say He restores my soul. (psalm23) We all have hard days, days when things seem soo big, like there will not be an end to all the little problems..and you know what there may not be in this life..but our hope does not have to be focused on whats around us.

On Sunday at church we read Hebrews11 about Moses, his life and his faith, and in verse27 the Word says 'for he endured as seeing him who is invisible.'

Where do we find our hope?

Though I may despair, or grow weary, or not have answers, He remains the same, now and always.
How sweet it is to trust in Jesus. Whether you love Him or not He loves you. You cant escape that Im afraid.  And for those who trust Him with their lives He says He will never leave or forsake them.

There is nothing more precious to know, that no matter how I feel or what life looks like His promises in His Word will not change. They remain true.

I know how hard it can be to read the Word of God. No matter who you are. But go with me on an adventure this summer and read it.

Lean not on your own understanding. (Proverbs3)
Search the Word and see what its all about.
Do not be afraid, seek the adventure which is held between its covers.

But remember...this is God we are dealing with, He is bigger than you and I, so if you do not understand things, do not be surprised. But ask Him for wisedom.

He will restore your soul.

So yes as Katie Tunstall says in her song Weirdo..."Still a weirdo after all these years"... yes yes I truely am. All my 23 years or at least what I can remember of them I've been unique,quirky even. I think we all must feel that way, that we are extra weird compared to the next person..we see it every day, people trying to fit in , be it with there clothes,lanuage, music, taste in films, hair do's, hair donts, tan..too much tan, no tan at all, friends, opinions, bringing each others group down so the one we are in, the "norm" we fit into seems like the "right" one. Are we..no matter what group we fall under or how much we try not to be in a group.. still trapped in that cycle of not comfortable in our own skin?? Yes some days its easy to say "well yes I am comfortable in my skin and happy with who I am" but how many days are there with the doubt,the unsureness, the self conciousness, the unsatisfation with our own bodies, our own minds, ...

Have you ever noticed things happening in your day or events happening in your life when you say to yourself..that was just weird, not normal or no one could have forseen it..like incidents were planned to happen, ment to happen but there was no way you or anyone else could have seen it coming...or even planned it for that matter! Its weird when that happens isnt it. For me its been happening a lot lately, but I really do think it was always happening in my life and also in your life but we just dont see it, or if we do we write it off as being some odd coincidence. During this summer I've been longing to study the bible more and more..ok so that doesnt sound like everyones cup of tea but it is mine-its like a big mug of barrys tea to me! Friends of mine have and are studying in a bible college in Siegen, Germany (Calvary Bible college). The more and more I heard about the bible college and studying the word, the more I grew excited about having the opportunity to study and tau...

For when I am weak, then I am strong.

The testing of our faith, the trials...to persever, to grow weary...finding our strength in Him. For the past four days I have been wrestling with my own heart. Battling with my flesh, pressing forward even though much of me just wants to stand still but I dont like to stand still, if there is one thing I dont like the most of all is not getting to know the Lord new each day and just giving into self-pity and this want to put a hault on time. Yes, life is ever changing and moves happen, new people come, others go! Yes, family are missed and friends too, and of course I dont have answers for people when I am asked where?... what?.. when? and Why?...but none of that is anything big when my vision is set on Christ. This morning I continued to read in Psalm, amidst Psalm44 there is a gem, in verse 8 it says:  In God we boast all day long, And praise Your name forever. No matter what is going on around us, or how we think we feel, we must be open for ...
