Stormy Weather

When it rains, it pours. I take that back – not always. Often in my life there have been gentle rains. Rains that I are not so messy, rains that I have walked through with my children, where there have been puddles to jump into for fun. But other times, it doesn’t just rain; it pours. I have to say, that God has blessed me with what I am doing. It hasn’t been a cruise but busy enough and challenging enough to fill my time. I have seen things that should be done but have left them because they are not urgent and they are not my job. Had I picked up every job that I saw needing to be done, it would have been too much. I believe that God has blessed me with a real picture of ministry over the last three months. Then it pours. I realize that this is a season; only one week really. While the weather is chilly and blustery outside in Brisbane indeed, in my life, the weather is now calm until next week probably when I start work again.
