I had a lovely morning, spending time with friends from church at the Women’s Conference. We heard about what it means be an overcomer, and heard how some of the women had seen it in their own lives.
And we prayed.
And sang.
And listened to song.
And then went home to shine a light
in such a time as this.
It’s not been too hot today.
Lovely! 🙂
We’ve had varying amounts of rain, but no flooding here. The place we’ve moved to is near a river, though, and the water comes up from there. While our house has been dry(ish!), the lower bridge into town has been cut off a couple of times, and we’ve been able to see the flooding over the paddock behind the house. It hasn’t affected us, or our ability to get to town, but it’s good to keep an eye on it…
The garden is green, and needs a good weeding. The roses are slowing down considerably, but I did get a nice one from one of the smaller bushes.

It’s been another day trying to deal with government bureaucracy without my head exploding…
I have been enjoying writing up some old notes.
A few years ago I did an online course, which at that time only had one year’s curriculum. They’ve just added a second year’s curriculum, and I was invited back as an alumni 🙂
One of the things I’d been wanting to do these last years is to catch up on my notes from the previous lessons and seminars. I had copied out quite a lot (more than I’d thought I had), but I stalled in the middle of one set of lessons because I couldn’t find my notes, and I didn’t want to continue with something else before finishing that class.
I have searched through my bits of paper many times, both here and in the previous two addresses. I eventually came to the conclusion that the last two lessons of that class were gone, and I would just have to move on.
When I got the invitation to sign up again for the course, I wasn’t sure at first. The cost was discounted (as an alumni, and also because I think we’re guinea pigs for Year 2 😆 ), but it’s still an extra expense to factor in.
We prayed about it, and I didn’t have any clarity, until about an hour or so before the cut off time to enrol. I still wasn’t completely sure (probably because of the money), but decided to go for it… and then I started to get excited about it.
The zoom calls start in a couple of weeks, so I took out all my previous notes to sort them out, and get them finished as much as possible.
…and, after all the searching, and all the methodical sorting into each set of lessons…
there they were.
The two missing lessons, not only clear and easy to read (i.e. not in tatters from moving from place to place), but also in an exercise book, folded back to the right page, ready to be copied out.
I think Someone’s looking out for me.
And I think I might be supposed to do this year’s curriculum.
a bit of creativity, a bit of eco consciousness, a bit of inspiration.... hopefully not a lot of pompousness and blathering :D
i'm not entirely sure what's going on here... let's travel along and see...
