I am still alive

Hi!!! Just thought i'd let you know that I am still alive... I really suck at this. I have so many thoughts (which of course I think are amazing) and things to tell but I never sit down in front of my computer and write them out! I'm sorry. If anyone still does bother reading this, thanks for your patience.

I had a bit of a realisation last night, which is going to sound silly but for me it was a big stepping stone... Since December I have been under spiritual attack. Its been pretty full on and I haven't coped very well. My realisation was firstly that I have been under spiritual attack, and secondly that despite my feelings of God abandoning me God really was with me. Problem was I was so caught up in handling stuff that I didn't see Him right behind me. As it says in Psalm 23:6 - Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life... He was following me, because He is goodness and love! It sounds kinda silly, or possibly simple, but when you are so caught up in these things you don't see it. And then you just get even more caught up! Now is the challenge of making it all better! With God's help of course.

Anyway, other stuff... I love my job still, it has its annoyances but in general I love it. The training was great, the trainer was really good i got along with her well, and there were a few ppl in the class I got along with as well, nothing as bad as I expected... I've been to a training breakfast and dinner as well and have fit in reasonably well. I have one in July for PNG, i'm so excited about it. If you haven't checked it out yet I recommend you go to Brown's website - there's a link on this page, it has a clip from U-Tube for Ukarumpa. It gave me goose pimples watching it... that place is so special, and somewhere that despite everything I'll still feel like it's home.

The last two days I have been on a motorbike training course. I now have my motorbike/scooter license, which is exciting. I'll start riding the scooter at work tomorrow. Eeek! Hopefully I'll get more confident really quickly! The idea of traffic scares me!

This Friday I have my final exam for the semester, which I really should be studying for now. And then next week I'm off to Auckland for two days (one night) as a training thing. We are flying Emirates and doing some fun stuff over there as well as doing our own thing a little... It's a quick visit but I'm excited, I've wanted to go to NZ for ages!

So that's my life. I am going to get better. I have to get better, otherwise I should give up altogether...
