Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone, I hope you all enjoy this day, and just remember one thing.

Some of us stay at the cross,
some of us wait at the tomb,
Quickened and raised with Christ
yet lingering still in the gloom.
Some of us 'bide at the Passover feast
with Pentecost all unknown,
The triumphs of grace in the heavenly place
that our Lord has made His own.
If the Christ who died had stopped at the cross,
His work had been incomplete.
If the Christ who was buried had stayed in the tomb,
He had only known defeat,
But the way of the cross never stops at the cross
and the way of the tomb leads on
To victorious grace in the heavenly place
where the risen Lord has gone.

Annie Johnson Flint.

Many Days...

I thought i might blog, i haven't in while and quite a lot has happened as of late. Last Monday, Jen, from the Chaplaincy came round to my lovely flat at Singer to bless it, along with a few others in the block. We all have been having a run of bad luck as of late, and it was a good idea to get the place looked over. Was a interesting experience, from my point of view, I could defiantly feel a difference, before and after. Not to mention the miraculous disappearing cold spot in my room which is nothing short of amazing! I guess thats God for you, always working in the ways you don't realize.

On the God side of things I have been getting on quite well with my old pall Jesus, managed to keep my Lenten promise, tea with no sugar, quite hard, and has caused one issue, I now cant drink it! Oh well, nothing to worry about. I am certainly a lot more trusting in him then I was, it occurred to me a few days ago that if I wasn't meant to be doing this I wouldn't be, yes I have choices to make in my life, as does everyone, the only difference, is I have someone to ask, which the right one is, and it is my duty to carry out that decision, wether I like it or not. Its a strange way of looking at it but it works for me!

Charli was down for a few days was lovely spending time with her, even if it was only a few days. I really do cherish her, and love her with all my heart. She went home, back to Gloucestershire on the wednesday (19th), sad to see her go, I miss her a lot, but i know in time will get to see her again. On the thursday I went to go see tutors about my course, and the problems therein, not that helpful to be honest, as most of it boils down to fiscal problems, not a lot they can do, but in essence, I am resident in Coventry till the end of the academic year, (June), unless something BIG comes up job wise. Fingers and Prayers people! :)

I've come home back to the good old 'tage for a few days, Dad picked me up on Friday, and went out that same evening, was strange being out in my old town, there were new people in the places I used to call home, it was like looking into a book and all the words being different. Nevertheless I met up with few old friends, had a good old natter and a pint, well deserved I think. Going to Church tomorrow (well today as I write this!), Easter service, should be good. :)

Back to Coventry most likely the Wednesday after easter, have a family thing on tuesday, not really looking forward to it at all, but it has to be done, for the good of the family.

Ill leave you with this quote, I cant remember were I heard it, or who said it, but It stuck with me:

Only the destination is known Not the Journey

Appently Im Intelegent....

Long time no update....

Well well well, been a long time since this place has seen a fresh post, so I thought Id do one here, been blogging at my other blog, for a bit, but I will be using this one as well now :).

So whats happend to me in the past fewweeks and months? Well, I have decided to leave universty, yes I know that might sound a little brash of me, but Ive come to the decision that it really isnt for me, the course Im on really isnt teaching me anything, and Im not getting on well with it. Ive decided, that I am going to stay in Coventry for a while, as a means of looking for a job, in esessance untill the ned of the year, but after that Im not too worried about it all.

At the moment Im at Charli's came up on Thrusday, sort of suprised her a little. not much though as I had to tell her I was comming so she could make the spare bed! Been really nice spending time with her, even if she has been feeling ill the past few days. I on the other hand have been feeling ok last few days, sholder still aches from time to time, but who does have an old war wound?

Going back to Coventry tomorw, going to see everyone from that end of the world, Charli's up on Sataday, cant spend too much time apart! :). Then its off home for a bit, I mean, my brother doesnt have time to anoy my dad properly! Big Smiles :)
