So its been quite a while since I last blogged and Leanne and I were reflecting last night about how it was 3 years ago we were starting Team on Mission. I feel like I have changed a good bit since then and yet it is hard to put my finger on exactly how. I feel slightly shrewder which as Leanne pointed out is coupled with being less trusting. When I started team I had planned that by now I would be entering my final year of a degree in Ancient History :) Instead I have just completed a year of Sociology and Theology and I am now taking yet another gap year from university to move to Galway to help start a church....
"For I know the plans I have for you....plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11
How my own plans change. But I say that with a smile on my face :) Even at the start of this year I expected to be sorted for the next few years- working in Sandy Row and completing a degree. And yet now I can't imagine myself in Belfast this year. Tis a funny old world. But all these reflections have made me decide to start blogging again, to show what God's plans involve next for me even on a day to day basis. At the moment they involve going to Lisburn to hang out with my girls and heading to Michelle's tonight for worship and sharing time about Castlewellan....Sounds good to me :)
