Gratefulness

I was recently overwhelmed by the feeling of peace and happiness I felt whilst at work. I know what you might be thinking...what is she on about?! I have worked in many different environments, schools, shops, offices and even in dingy basements with no windows.

I think God puts us through tough times, so that when he gives places us somewhere great we thank him. We recognise how much he changes us and how much we have to thank him for.

In my new job I have through him been able to accomplish things I didn't know where possible, I know that is God working and not me. So I am going to try whether good day or bad to continue thanking him for this job. 

When we are starting out in our careers or studying it can feel daunting and scary. You might feel like you have talents that are not being recognised, maybe you don't feel like you are gifted. Please know that you do have something to contribute, sometimes it takes a while to figure it all out.

1 Corinthians 12 v 12 says " The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body.

We all have a purpose and different skills and talents, keep pushing and trying and you will find the place God wants you to be.

Wedding Bells....

I had the privileged this summer of being a Bridesmaid for this wonderful girl, the new Mrs B!

A beautiful start in scenic countryside, cooked breakfast and flower arranging. I helped put the flowers around the arch..see below! (whilst taking my life into my own hands up a ladder)

The Bride being Argentinian made sure her roots were acknowledged with Spanish being involved. The buffet style food was, well epic and speeches timed perfectly. Other Bridesmaids and I had such a blessed day!

All matching in Coral, we loved being able to encourage our close friend with her special day, and she is now happily married to soon to be Dr B!

1Thessalonians 2:11 " Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing".

Friendship is key to keeping us going in the faith, going through different seasons with people and seeing them through each one. I love that I can go to a friend any time and explain how I feel without judgement. " The road to a friends house is never long".

Happy days and Happy Friday..stay blessed. x
