I love this verse - Ephesians 2:10
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, prepared in advance for us to do.
The message puts it like this
He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing.
Tom is from Australia, and Tuu is from Thailand. We were married recently and are now living and serving in Thailand.

back to school
this morning I got the opportunity to return to my old school and talk to the 15-17 yr olds about a few of my experiences... how God changed *my plans* for my life :)
It was a really good time ... to be able to encourage them to seek God's plan, because God's plan for us is better than anything we can engineer out of life. Encouraged them to have confidence in God, and to also to take some time to get to know God, don't put it off till you have a career

Every LITTLE thing is going to be alright
Was just listening to this song by delirious, and I really felt God letting me know that everything is going to be alright while I'm away ... even the little things ... that I don't need to worry, I felt a real burden lifted! :)
Delirious - Every Little Thing
Everything must change
There’s a mirror showing me the ugly truth
These bones they ache with holy fire
But I’ve got nothing to give, just a life to live
If your world is without colour
I will carry you, if you carry me
Every little thing’s gonna be alright
Every little thing’s gonna be alright [x2]
There’s no-one else to blame
I live my life between the fire and the flame
I’ve built my house where the ocean meets the land
It’s time to live again, pull my dreams out of the sand
Let your world be full of colour
I will carry you, if you carry me
When it’s all falling down on you
You’re crying out but you’re breaking in two
When it’s all crashing down on you
When there’s nothing you can do
There is someone who can carry you

late night
was feeling pretty sick earlier with a migrane ... but I managed to sleep that off
today was my last day at work ... so from now on I'll be using my time getting ready to go away
I'm pretty happy with my laptop, which is a real blessing and will come in handy while I'm away
This Friday I'm preaching/sharing (whatever you want to call it) at element

2day
Today though quite busy was quite good, everything came up was fixable :)
Had a relaxing weekend in the end too
Oh and it finally looks like I'm getting a laptop, it was the first one I wanted, but God managed to teach me patience in the process.
I'm sure I'll be able to waste a bit of time messing around with that in the next few days.
I now have my aeroplane tickets in my hand ... the big countdown is on its 31 days or something now, woah

well I had to come down
just when I thought I had everything under control .. God reminded me I don't :)
didn't get the laptop ... long story. I thought it was the one for me, but God didn't want me to have that one.
And I'm going to be busier this week with work than anticipated, but God will get me through it, and the fact I get paid (eventually) is always a bonus :)
