Spring is upon us!




 
January has come and gone and I am definetly excited that Spring has come. I love the different seasons and the change that comes with them. It's such a blessing that with each season comes new sights & colours & this season brings fresh growth and the beginning of colour which is very welcome in my books.
Thank you God for the changing seasons.
 
This January is what I would call a 'pic n mix'. Such a mix bag weather wise but also with college and motivation and also with my bible reading plan. There has been times of growth and progress and other cold, wintery days where all I wanted was early bed times and to avoid the work ahead but what has been a huge blessing is the 'be creative 2013' incentive and the bible reading plan. They have kept my month colourful and fresh. Thankfully.
 
This year I definetly have embraced the idea of goals. Long term and short term. They can be exciting and help keep focus. They have helped me throughout January to not just get stuck in old lazy ways of thinking for too long and my 'verses in a jar' each morning have reminded me of what the most important thing in each day and month of the year... and that is Christ and what He has done for us.
 
Now we begin another month and a new season.
 
Let the fun and challenges and journey begin.
 
Love from Cork to you this Friday <3


 
Ps todays verse from the jar was:
 
And let us not grow weary of doing good,
for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
                                                                                                     -Galatians6:9&10

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...
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, ...
So..Here I am. First post. A sigh of relief as I begin.I thought the setting up of a blog was going to be painful and long but alas it was easy and quick. I am far from a wiz at technology..I admit to knowing very very very little about the new or even old ipod, iphone, mac, apple..and whatever else is out there. They are mere words I hear in conversations on a daily basis..which is a slight worry..not because I dont have a clue about them (I prefer pen and paper and a good oul cd to be honest) but the fact that its such a highlight of our conversations these days. Anyway...less about all those fandangles... I am glad to be writing. I've always loved to write about this and that... but of late I yern to do so, more and more. My life has changed soo very much over the last number of months and time is going so fastly by that I wanted to write it all down, so that I see it all and remember it all.. all the blessings that are part of my new life, the moulding of my new heart and...
