Book Stuff

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Okay, so I’ve been a little secretive about this but I’m ready to make myself accountable to this small dream I’ve had for a while. I love to write and I’ve been keeping journals for the last 4 years and a few months ago I started reading back through them and it was simply amazing to see the journey I have been on and how God has worked in the smallest of things and the biggest. He is so amazingly faithful. So anyway a few months ago I had this really stong desire to somehow put those thoughts into a book so that others could see that my God is a God that can change lives and give you amazing dreams that makes life thrilling to live. So I sat down and asked for Gods help, and He gave me the words and thoughts to write…so after a few months of burying myself into the laptop I’m almost ready to see a publisher (scary)…so there it is it’s out there now so there’s no turning back or giving in when it gets too hard…I’ll keep you updated…

We’ve almost nailed (again excuse the pun) the music for the Soul of my Feet, it’s so exciting, every time I sing the words I get goosebumps so hopefully others will too. We’re going to start recording next week so we’ll post some updates soon!

“I need something to make me Happy”

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

Just wanted to share with you a moment of reflection this week. My little boy looked up at me with puppy dog eyes yesterday and made quite a profound statement. He said ” Mummy, I need something to make me happy”. Hmmmm I needed a few minutes to ponder on this statement before responding to him…in fact I wondered where he had even heard the statement before? Was it somehow subliminally sent through the TV? Had I said it before? It actually made me a little sad to hear that he needed something material to make him happy but I guess it is simply the battle we all have within us. To either seek happiness through accumulating ‘things’ or seeking happiness through the contentment that comes from knowing Jesus. It was a little difficult to explain to a 3 year old that happiness is free and is available to us through Jesus 24/7 but I’ll keep teaching him and hopefully one day it will stick!
