Happy New Year!



 Life for me is safest lived day by day and step by step. I cant really do more than that. Naturally I stress really easily, I over think often, I dispair far to much. So day by day and step by step is the best medicine for me!

The most wonderful thing is..thats how God leads us to live, day by day and step by step.

I am very thankful for the year that has passed. Its another year of life lived, people I have had the pleasure to know and places I have been but most of all I am thankful for Gods grace in my life and in those lives around me.

Life can be tough...but one thing remains the same...this year, last year and the one to come...and that is Him. Thank you Jesus.

I know at Christmas we are to celebrate Christ birth...but the New Year for me brings more celebration of Christ and His life than Christmas does.
The New Year to me represents a new year to live in the grace that Christ has given..at a huge price for Him but which comes so freely for those who come to Him.
The New Year makes me grateful that by His grace He has brought me through another year.
 Christ makes the year make sense.


My heart overflows with so much joy, thanksgiving and gratitude when I think of the New Year and that because Christ lived, died and rose again that I get to live and be free.

This is priceless.

A perfect gift from above.

Happy New Year friends...do not be dismayed His grace is sufficent. He is the same yesterday, today and always <3

Find rest in Him.

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...
