closer to sea level

Quick note to let you all know I miss you all,

For 6 weeks I've been away on a mountain away from al the comforts, it was a farming village, but it was great to be away from the distractions that we place in our life, and to get back to nitty gritty lifestyle, as much as I am a technology buff, it really brought me closer to God, working amongst his Creation, getting dirt under the nails ;)

This DTS school will be all wrapped up in 2 weeks, then there will be goodbyes, but there will shouts of praise to God for all that we've learnt, for shouts of joy for achieving what felt like the impossible to some, rejoicing for the victories, and looking forward to more.

I am waiting expectantly to hear back from Penang, Malaysia, to know if I have been accepted to the Bible School there for the next few months, if I haven't then thats cool, if my application got lost then that is fine, God is just trying to get my attention to go another direction.

As Is already my experience, God doesn't always take you to what seems logical or benefical to do. Maybe I'll be back up the mountain working there, working in a studio, maybe spending time down south chatting to people living in tents, with nothing left to call there own.
