Ok, I've been on holidays for all of September which was fantastic! B and I went to Lakes Entrance for a week which was magnificent. It is a beautiful spot. I loved being able to go on long walks, which were so relaxing and I was able to marvel at the beauty of our natural world, and spend some quality time with G-o-d.
I wrote awhile ago about my period of struggle, not really having any certainty of where I was called to be and where God was within that difficulty. Now, I can safely say, I have definitely come through the other side of that period. Whilst it was difficult, I really believe that we cannot avoid times of struggle. In fact, I would say that if we don't experience times of difficulty then I don't reckon we're really engaging with a process that is reflective upon one's life. Whenever I go through challenges, I find myself processing where can I experience God in all of this. Sometimes, God feels distant, like a thought but not really a reality. Even in these times, I believe that God is still working within my life and my context, almost in spite of how I am feeling about God, God is still there.
So, I am really excited about the end of the year and seeing all the possibilities for me, in ministry, and looking out for God in the daily ho-hum stuff of life.
Peace
