World Prayer Centre

Was up at 4:30 this morning to go to Birmingham for the day to the World Prayer Centre training day. Just arrived back (10pm) a little tired. It was a day that made me feel at peace and confirmed that I was going in the right direction. Whereas before I felt an urge, a pulling in this direction, this seems to have shifted to another level. I now feel connected, as though I'm not now just on the fringe wondering what or where or when. But I feel more that I've arrived at the first stage of the journey and I am now part of it. Feels good!

A busy weekend

Tomorrow I'm off early to Birmingham to the World Prayer Centre for a training day for all who want to be in a prayer team with a view to travel in Britain and abroad. I did join 150 others in Scotland in July to pray for the G8 summit. For some time I've been sensing that this is the direction God wants me to take so I'm looking forward to tomorrow with an open mind and see where it leads.

I have been asked to speak at church on Sunday and the Bible reading and theme I have been given are right on the lines of some things that I have been sensing God saying to me over the past few weeks. This will be an opportunity to share these thoughts with the rest of the church. And it is a reminder that when God gives us something, it's not just for our own benefit.

Afterwards we have Diane, Ben and Tabi for lunch and a relaxed afternoon. Let's hope the weather is fine so we can go for a long walk.

Quite a while

I realise it's quite a while since I last posted anything on my blog. I have enjoyed some time on holiday and have now upgraded my PC to Broadband so plan to get back blogging soon.

I have just had my first instant chat online with Christ Hogben who is at the moment in Bethlehem. (Check out his link on this blogspot) I feel like a child at Christmas with a new toy. Isn't this technology stuff amazing!
