so much for a new year promise to keep this upto date, here we are almost 6 months into 2011 and not made one posting...either laze or more interesting things to do, you can decide.
Been a busy 5 months so far, a few friends called home to glory, my godson gets married in June and I am the celebrant so that should be fun. Church is growing slowly but against all human rules still growing and life goes on.
Had an interesting sermon in my morning church not so long ago. The sermon was really on money but the Pastor spoke on the "love of Stuff" basically anything we build up for ourselves and put before God. Applies to more than money, and the question that falls out for any one who claims to be a believer is this , just what do you put before God? Have to realise that I do need to let a few things go and change some priorities.
We had the long bank holiday weekend, well two bank Holidays back to back with Easter being very late and the following weekend being the "Royal" wedding and them mayday. take the 3 days in the middle and hay presto all but two weeks off work. Got stuck into the Garden, and part of the garden got stuck in to me, cuts and scrapes all over the body...totally knackered but it looks a lot better now, and rather than bin the majority of the Garden waste 80% of it recycled as compost so quite chuffed about that.
Oh yes and i have taken to sponsoring a child through a charity called "compassion", more on that another day but this is the url to the main sight http://www.compassionuk.org/ have a look around you never know you may decide to take part yourself..
