Well, it seems like ages since I last wrote…and indeed…IT IS AGES! It’s my 23rd Birthday in 5 minutes, so I guess by the time I finish writing this to you, I will be 23.
I’m really NOT one for Birthdays. I always find they’re more about trying to make sure OTHER people feel like they’ve helped you to have a nice birthday when actually, I would just rather everyone forgot and left me alone. I’ve no idea why that is and I don’t want to sound depressing, it’s really just me I guess.
Anyway it’s been a good two weeks. The usual trips and falls in all the predictable areas of life…yet somehow necessary in my understanding of how my life is going to be and what areas need to be monitored carefully.
Have completed my CV and covering letter which I hope is the first stage in my “trying the door” of London School of Theology. Have also made some MAMOUTH curtains for my parents’ bedroom on my new sewing machine (a collective birthday present from friends and family). It was a fun project, but a LONG one!
I’ve had several much larger near misses though and continue to be grateful to God for his provision of exits in each of these situations.
Anyway, tiz off to Taunton on Sunday to see a close friend of mine, before returning fully to Lee Abbey on Monday. I hope to be able to settle in quickly and re-compose myself for the task ahead, predominantly that of leading the Roger Jones Host Team which starts on Saturday 5th!
I covet your prayers for this and my life at lee Abbey in general, I guess I’m quite tired by it all now and need strength to complete the remainder of my contract.
Thank you all for your support…I miss you all and love you very much!
