like the wind comes - from seemingly nowhere
it sweeps you off your feet - your heart flutters like falling leaves
wirling and swirling around all about
Like the wind goes - to where no one knows
your on your head and off your toes
reeling around with a cry and a shout
shaking and bending like grass in the breeze
John 3:8

My life has been boiled down to one thing - Trusting God.
The most difficult thing a man can face is reality. Every man who is blessed of God faces this, Adam and Eve were blessed with family and an untainted world, but removed from their home forcibly. Noah saw the whole world destroyed but was blessed with family. Abraham was blessed with Gods freindship and did not see the full promise he was given and wandered. Moses was blessed with leaderhip and purpose of delivering his people a wandered the desert for 40 year and was never allowed to enter the promised land. All the prophet were blessed with Gods voice and knew God in a special way, intimately and deeply but were all murdered. Kind David was blessed with being a king and a heart for worship and yet his family was always in disaray. All the apostles, save one - John, were killed for their faith - John had the misfortune of being boiled in oil and not dying and then being exiled on patmos. Jesus himself, Gods own and One with the Father was tortured and killed.
All these thngs - boiled life down to the bone and revealed the truth of hearts and minds and was for our benefit. Somehow we in the western world have been blind, thinking we were untouchible and that we were insulated from truth.
I pray mercy for us all - I pray Gods love and peace for us all - How can we endure life without Christ? (Answer is we can't - unless we are living in denial or in otherwords not facing reality)
Philippians 1:19-26

thank you all for your encouragment and support - About that post I put up yesterday - I should have prefaced it and said what it was about - it was a letter I had written that morning - but to no on inparticular only to the church in general - and not to people in bc - it was meant towards my local community here and the only reason I wrote it was to get things off my chest. I see how it was misinterprated because I did not explain that part.
So I hope you can all see that I meant no offence.
I am sorry if I did offend anyone and ask your forgiveness.

The suffering my Annie has to endure because she loves me is not what I want for her. Yes she is true and loyal and faithful and her love is real - but I do not want her to suffer in her heart anymore. Please hold her up in prayer. She is my love and I can not be there to comfort her. It breaks my heart. But Even more - it breaks hers.
Lord I ask for peace and Joy for my Annie as I can not be with her. Please hold her up and make her feel special - cause she is the most special person in the world to me.
amen
PS I love This picture of her - she will hate me for posting it

The Brumby spoke ;
My kingdom is like hidden treasure hidden in a Field, which you found - now hide it in your hearts - for in your joy over it you have given up all you have to come to this Field.
again My Kingdom is like you two seeking a beautiful pearl and now that you found it you have given all you have for it.
(Matthew 13:44-46 paraphrased)
Keep your heart with al diligence for out of it spring the issues of life.
(Proverb 4:23)
Love one another as I have loved you for by your love they will know me - Now go in peace.
As we stood to leave light faded and the clearing came into view and we saw the brumby leave - but we both knew it was no brumby, but that it was the Lord Himself.
We turned to face one another with Joy and love and told each other How much we loved one another - This came as the deep things in our hearts were revealed by the Lord and we knew what was in the others heart and life experience.
Then we kissed for a very long time.
The End (Just the beginning)

fumbling for the key we both grabbed it together and placed it in the lock - Turned slowly and to our curiosity was a single pearl. we looked at one another and wondered why we were tasked to find this? I was beautiful but also seemed that this journey had been a great effort for such a small thing - and then, just then a white brumby appeared and the clearing lit up with the most brilliant light until all we could see was this brumby - not even our own selves could be seen.

# 10 (The continuing story begining in # 7)into the bush

As we entered into the thick bush we wondered what the currawong had said as it flew over - for it sounded like a human voice. We did not know and for all these things we did not understand - for all we knew, we were dreaming.
At this point there was no path and the undergrowth was thick - so we were unsure of which way to go. I knelt down to pray and a voice said you are going the wrong direction. Look, she said, a man - I turned to look and there was an aboriginal man standing and pointing to the way we should go - He also explained that the currawong was sent by the Father and Father is what it had said. He told us the same bird summoned him to point the way we should go. At that moment he said; Kur-ia-gun - which means soon, then he disappeared.
Now we knew the way to go - so we moved in that direction, trusting that God was leading us - the more we trusted the clearer the trail became until there was a clearing and a case in the centre.
