Well it's Sunday afternoon and a lovely crisp sunny winters day
and we have just cruised home from Church.
On the way home my Babe received a text from a friend of ours who
was stuck at the bottom of the hill that leads up to where the
Church we go to is. She had a flat tyre and kids in the car and
my babe was able to call up the AA' service and get help for her.
This friend of ours has been to Church a few times and people
know her and in was interesting, as we were waiting with her for
the AA' to arrive, she said that a number of people from Church
had driven by and not stopped to offer her any help! I am not
saying that we are anything great in stopping to help, but one
thing that this crazy: amazing Journey that we have been on has
taught us, is never be to busy to care and the seemingly small
every day things of life that often pass us by in our hurry to
get from A to B, to so count!
dirty and even our Sunday best gets a few marks on it, in caring
for others, so be it! As we start to notice ? moments and become
more like the hands and feet of our Like, a greater sense of
fulfilment in our lifes journey will happen and hopefully less
importance on rushing madly from one appointment to another,
thinking we are achieving great things! People matter and what we
sow into other people really does count for this life and beyond!
As we rush less and ask God to help us be His hands and feet to
this hurting world of ours, believe you me, your life will never
be the same again and like the song says, "In touching heaven,
you will change earth".The small things are often very impacting
and often have a roll on effect to other people, one kind deed
more often than not, leads to anther kind deed being done by the
person rcving! I totally believe that God is so keen for us to
pickccup on ? every day situations that arise and if it means our
programmecctimetable has to be changed a little or our hands get
a little

Well as promised, I am back again with more updates.
My brother inlaw has been staying with me in the evenings, while my famil
have been on holiday and in the morning before I depart for work as we call
it, he has been reading me a Proverb for the day and I am goung to share
some of them with you, as they are very cool and so true.
"The greatest essentials for life, people need something to do, something to
love and something to hope in"
"To achieve great things, we not only need to act, but also dream, not only
plan, but also believe"
'If you want to cheer yourself up, start by cheering someone else up"
"It not important whether you fail, but how you rise when you do fail"
I believe these Proverbs and I believe it is so important what words we sow
into our lives, words have the power to grow us oe destroy os. I remember as
a kid, we used to say, 'sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can
never hurt me"that is so untrue, bones can be repaired and can be completely
healed. The damage that can be caused by words, can be life long if we allow
it and can hinder us from being the people that God wants us to be. In my
journey, I have had a number of words said to me and at times they have
rattled me a bit and hinded my recovery a littlt and I have learned not to
let aome words take root in my life and I have chiisen to totoally trust
God's promises cotanted in the good book, the Bible and I also believe it is
an attitude of the heart and even if we aren't feeling on top of the world
and life has dished up a bowl of pain and hurts, start sowing some good
words into your life and believe in them and what God can do through them
and see the power lf that acting and believing come alive in your life. I
can guarantee you, it will not be easy and at times you may feel like giving
up, but don't, that is the time to believe even harder and sow even more
good stuff in. In time it will bring a harvest in your life and you will be
in a place where you can help sow into other peoples lives who are
