Its Finally Arrived

My iPhone has arrived today and so far it is a brilliant piece of kit, only Apple could come up with an item that syncs, activates and does all the other neat things we like to do with PDA’s/Phones.

My Dentist has decided that I can’t have my tooth taken out by them and has referred me to the local Dental hospital, I don’t know why? (Maybe the getting carted out in an Ambulance was the killer?)

Am feeling sad because England have not qualified for the European cup. Because Numpty Mclean decided to put an inexperienced Goal keeper in a vital match, was he drunk when He picked the team or did he use the blindfold and pin method. I think He will be getting his P45 tomorrow or some time in the next week.

Day after Delirious?

You know what my throat is still hoarse,my back,knee and elbow ache, But I am still buzzing about the encounter last night!

I have now decided that I am going to help out as a reading buddy in my kids nursery and Infants school, they are short of male role models apparently. I start next week lets see how it goes. That’s enough for today I am still shattered after a really busy week and I am not likely to get any relaxation this week either as it a busy one again. Heah ho, no rest for the wicked. At least I’ve got my iPhone to look forward to on Wednesday!!!!!!!!!!

Delirious? What a Group!!!!!!!

Wow, Blimey, flippin’ ‘eck, awesome, bloomin’ marvellous, mind blowing, these are just some of the superlatives I could chuck at you right now! I am sitting in bed still buzzing after seeing said band live for the first time ever! For those who don’t know who they are, they are a Contemporary Christian Rock Band, and Boy do they know how to pull some riff’s. You know I’ve been to one other live Christian worship event and it just increases the connection to the almighty. I can’t wait till their new album is released in March 08. I can highly recommend the Plug @ Sheffield for any concert of this sort. The only problem was getting coats after the finish, Big deal I say!!!! I want more in fact I’m about to put my iPod on and go to sleep listening to Access D: Live worship in the key of D. Curious go to http://www.delirious.co.uk.

Summary of the week of Prayer

It has been almost a month since I enjoyed the week of accompanied prayer, and I thought now would be a good time to revisit the journal I made of that week and evaluate what I learned and whether or not I have been sticking to the promises made.

For me there was several things that came out of this week.

Obedience
Trust
Faith
Stillness
A Need for quiet times with out prayer just listening for God (cf Ps 46 v 10) Be still and know that I am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth)
The need to read the bible more often than I am
That We can ask anything in His name
That the only calling on our lives is to come and worship him.

I have moved forward since these sessions, in how I read the Bible, I still do not read it often enough, I also still do not spend any quiet time with him, but I am trying. I have already been blessed tenfold for obedience in worship when I really don’t want or feel ready for it.

Lord God,
You are Alpha and Omega,
You are the beginning and the end,
Help me to serve you to the best of my abilities,
Help me to be more trusting and faithful to your message,
Lord, above all, give me the wisdom and discernment to spend time alone with you.
Let me open my ears, eyes and heart to the messages you have for me,
and give me the strength to keep going on my journey with you.
Thank you for the many blessings you bestow upon me and my family
In Your Blesséd name, Jesus Christ.
Amen.

The things that brighten our lives.

A mate of mine from church has just phoned to check how I am, he and I had a talk on Wednesday night about my day and I have to say I really let steam off at him. It had not been a good day. Anyway I found out that his Father has just been diagnosed with an inoperable tumour and was wanting some prayer for his father and his adopted daughter. I went round after having my flu jab! Anyway we prayed together and it was great how just some pretty small words of comfort seemed to brighten him, and if I’m honest myself as well. Dear Lord I thank you for friends, family and the ability to talk to you as not only our sovereign Lord but our Father. Take your servants and wrap them in your love, strength and peace today and for the coming weeks.

Yeah Just been given a ticket to see Delirious? play live tomorrow night @ the Plug. Yeah great band, great worship I looking forward to it!!!!!!! Will post when I get over the exicetment tomorrow!!!!!

New Month, Same Stuff Happening

You know just for once Lord , I would like my life to be as simple as it would have been as a child. I am fed up with having no money, no work and just generally feeling pants!!!! The Bright party went ok last night. There wasn’t as many children there as last year, however, because of holidays I am sure that this was the reason. I felt that the graffiti wall did not work very well with the age group that we had! If I am honest it left me feeling a bit let down and not as praise full as I was hoping!
