Change

So change happens soooo much. and so often. I think it happens too often for me liking. Although i am one to have changes every now and then, I am also a creature of habit. So when massive changes come up.... its hard. but when they are good changes, I tend to get so torn between my feelings of excitement and my feelings of somewhat sadness, or nervousness.

The most recent change that has come up has come soooo suddenly and has all happened heaps fast. My maid of honour Kerrie and one of my other bridesmaids Sally are moving to Gympie. For those people who don't live in Aust, Gympie is about 2 hrs down the road. Although its not that far, its still a massive change. I found out 2 weeks ago. They are going there this Thursday. Sadness was the first emotion that i felt. Kerrie is my bestest friend ever, so it was tough. But at the same time i am sooooo excited!!!!!! God is bringing about alot of change in 2008! They are going there to take over as leaders of the Salvation Army because the church there is in real trouble!!! how awesome is that!!! If u know Kerrie and Sally, those 2 are gonna change that little town around. It's such an amazing opportunity but come sooo fast I have had to adjust very quickly.

This has not come as just a blessing to them, but a blessing to me as well. I have been struggling to pray. Its a gift I have been given but i get so overwhelmed by how much i could pray for, that i dont pray at all. and as my friend Denise says "just do it"... well u will be proud Denise, i have started just doing it. been praying it up for my 2 beautiful friends and its been a blessing to me. i feel very empowered when i pray and feel a huge part of what they are doing up there cuz i am praying. so its a massive blessing to me. and its giving me a hunger to pray more.

speaking of new things.... i have an interview on Friday.... as some of my friends know, it is a passion of mine to do High School Chaplaincy. But i was gonna wait a couple yrs so that Andrew can finish his apprenticeship and stuff. I started randomly filling out an application form online for it, but didnt finish it. apparently it registers on their system when u even start one. so they rang me and offered me an interview for Friday!!!! MASSIVE STUFF!!!! its like God is opening a door that i didnt even think would be opened for a couple of yrs. so its awesome!!!!
