Job vs Church

Posted by admin on October 25, 2009 None comments

I had to work today instead of going to Church, It pained me to go to work rather than church, the Leadership is incredible and so are the friendships.

While I was at work and actually grouching in my mind about missing out, two things came into my mind, it’s only for a season/one Sunday and also that I should be praising God even while I’m at work, even when I dont feel like praising in my circumstances, even when the customers are complaining, stick a smile on my face and deal with it.

I was running lyrics through my mind all day for Example…

Moving with the Father spirit and the son
Flowing with a power that’s springing out of love
That You’ve shown for me
When You poured out mercy
Choosing now to serve You following Your ways
Knowing that You’ve saved me calling me by name
To worship You my king foreverO what You’ve done for me
You’ve set my heart upon a rock
Washed and forgiven me
And now I’m free to give You glory

With Joy joy!
Lord I dance with Joy
Jumping in Your presence filled with
Joy! Joy!
Lord I dance with joy
Jumping in the presence of my God

Your mercy’s new each day
And shining like the sun
You’ll be my song of praise
Until my race is run

With Joy joy!
Lord I dance with joy
Jumping in Your presence filled with
Joy joy!
Lord I dance with joy
Jumping in Your presence filled with joy!

And then just after I’d finished work I got a text from one of  my friends saying that I was missed at church and that she hoped I’d had a good shift.

Later on I also got two more messages saying that I was missed at church.

In all its been a weird day but been trying to Praise HIM in and through it all.

A lovely afternoon

This afternoon I had a friend come by who Ive not seen in at least six months, granted I talk to this person regularly online but its nothing as good as face to face contact.

We spent a bit of time together at my house just catching up on how each other is doing and just generally having a laugh and a giggle.

But it was just so lovely spending time with said person as I really have been worried about them recently, just to see that they are OK and such like, they in my prayers and thoughts everyday and I know they have a lot of friends thinking about them

Friendships

I’ve come to realise just how much I rely and trust my friends, especially those I have known for a good number of years,  its a strange feeling, I can go ages without chatting to them face to face and yet when I do get the chance to meet up again its just as though I’ve been gone a moment and am picking up the thread of the conversation again.

I totally love my friendships old and new.

Treasure and Value your friends because you never know what life will throw at you.

Move…Part two…

Posted by admin on June 3, 2009 None comments

The Saturday we came to move, we wasn’t at all sure how many people that would come to help us move house, I’d sent out a appeal over Twitter,and sent out a lot of text messages asking for help, got a few back saying that people where already busy etc etc.

So anyway, come 12pm, there was 10 people there including myself and hubby and it was a good job really that nobody else came to help as they would have just got in the way, by 4pm we had more or less finished and only just in time as the heavens opened just as we where getting the fridge inside the new house.

I went to borrow one of the Xcel Church vans with my dad, been going to aycliffe for ages now, guess what…….I got us lost haha.

We eventually found it and picked the van up, its quite a huge van when you look inside so we could fit loads of things in.

A few people turned up with food or went out specially to get food and drink for us, so there was lots of food going around as people helped.

It was a good fast move, if we had not had all those people helping it would have took us at least a day to move everything.
