Questions...

I know there are no answers and that I won't be able to comprehend because it's God's own timing - which we can't comprehend yet.

Buuuuuuuuuut...

Revelation 12:7-9.

Why did God throw him down to earth?

Genesis 1:31 clearly says God looked at all he had created and saw it was good.

So....if God threw him down to earth...did God made earth bad by doing so?
Or was earth already bad?

But for it to be bad, it would have to have Satan in already...so he must've been there before.

So now I'm really confused.

The Jeans

Life can be a bit like a new pair of jeans.
This scenario always happens for me.






















I finally got down to my last pair of favourite, most comfortable skinny jeans with the huge hole in the knee. It meant that every time I put them on...I would accidentally put my foot through the whole and not realise half my leg would be outside the jeans until it got to my thigh.

So...I take an afternoon to go do some shopping. I find one pair of skinny jeans...that aren't that amazing as the hole-y ones...but they'll do - plus, they're cheap.
I get home...they come halfway up my back!!! Yes I did try them on, but they stretched somehow on the journey from Crawley to Horsham in my car!


The second pair of jeans I buy are gorgeous...they have washie blue all over, three cleverly placed buttons and they hug my bum. Just what a girl wants.
...
I get home....wear them to work the next day...and I don't even need to unloosen the 3 buttons or the zip to take them off!!
Somehow...Ive either lost weight extremely quickly or they've stretched aswell!
I eat breakfast properly...a bowl of Special K Honey & Oats normally...this morning...an English breakfast (which I cooked if I may say!).
So theres no way I could've lost weight...infact...I should've gained weight!


Somethings wrong. Either me...or the jeans.
What do we think?

Make me more like Jesus

There's always a degree of wanting more in my heart.
When I'm not close to God...I want more.
I want to know him better, understand him better, so I do everything I can. Speak to him, pray, read, meditate...everything.
And then when I'm getting closer (and by my arrogance I feel like I'm close) I slowly and discreetly back off without realising.
Now I've gone in a circle!
I want to know God again and get closer.

How silly of me. Why do I have this floor? So that God can show me time and time again how amazing and breath-taking he is.
And I happily allow him to show me how amazing he is.
Of course I am...I dwell in his grace!

I start Impact monday and I'm so syked bout it.
I thought I knew exactly what was happening...then I read Andrew Wilson's email and then I knew what was happening. Except I still don't know a real lot.
Starting Impact means I move out...so my blessed mother bought me some pink towels as a moving out present.
This year isn't just a change for me, it's a change for my family. We has only just clicked - see, arrogance.

Lord! Destroy me! Make me see!
