I had a great time on the weekend. I think I've forgotten the value of having a good night out. I attended the Masquerade Ball organised by NG with a couple of Eurekan lifegroup mates. Was a blast! Well. Mainly because of the baby above...my new baby!!
It was the prize for winning the best-dressed competition! Well. Honestly, I didin't really think I was outstanding. It was a decent outfit and mask[pictures will come when Messias passes them to me], but there were more creative ones. However, the tables voted. And this baby is mine!
I thank God for providing something like that. For a while, I have been praying and asking God for more affordable ways to obtain small things. Like an ipod to store more music and a generally trusty compact digital camera, laptop etc. They are small but pricey. I don't earn much. I do what I can with the money and try to save for a rainy day, as well as give to the Lord's work, and still try to enjoy life.
Jehovah Jireh he is indeed! My awesome friends provided the camera. The ipod has fallen into my hands through favour. My still awesomer friends are lending me their cars. Really, what more can one ask for?
It's been such a tough week. Struggled so much spiritually trying to fight off attacks of anger, despondency and discouragement. Just going out with good friends, dancing [learning the cha cha and just simpleround the circle dancing was great fun!], good meals, dressing up was just relaxing to the mind and soul. Should remember to do it more often.
Of course. I just invested into a heap of books in Koorong. Had a great trip and breakfast with Kev, Nat and Ravi...my Saturday breakfast buddies. Reading John Piper now. It's starting to convict. OUCH. But GOOD OUCH. Hope to move in deeper with God this new season.
Special thanks to 2 brothers who have been so generous to me and to the household as well. Thanks for the cars, the concern, the servanthood, the love and the jokes. And thanks also to YY and LL for the fixing of the hot water system!
Of course, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to SOPHIA. May God bless you heaps and draw you closer to Him and into your destiny. Love lots. XX. Haha.......XX
