So it has been several days since i last posted anything relevent, so here we go.
For an event at christmas I am helping to organise what can only be best described as a nativity party. My part is truly the nativity, but I have had to mould it to our post modern world. I started with how I saw and wher I saw the events surrounding the nativity taking place. Well, anyway, I have had the great fun of manipulating the story without becoming a heretic (always fun), thus changing the events that they happen in a way that is relevent to our generation. It has been a real eye-opener to see how God works in our lives today. For example, the bit in the story proceeding the magnifict, when Mary is told that she is going to be pregnant, I have had to manipulate it that she is already pregnant so it makes it easierto believe, and instead of Gabriel appearing, a guy comes up to her in a night club and says he has got to take her to a private place so he can give her a message from the manager. Anyway what doing this has done is brought to ligh how God has acted on my life. I believe in angels, not neccesarily the mythical creatures, but those who God sends along just at the right time. Thats not to say I don't believe in the cheribim and all those, but that I believe that they do work on different levels. Or maybe I'm just a being a heretic (someone please say if I am).
Well, tomorrow I am going the deerhurst old peoples home, guitar in hand to help them engage in worship, and sing to them how good God is. Two days ago I was thinking this is rediculous, because there are tims at the minute where God doesn't seem so good, but praise God I was shown his goodness in the past and present, and that satan was out to get me down. Well, tomorrow I'm walking in with my head held high, ready to witness and worship!
Into the world I go.
The world for God, I'll give my heart, I'll do my part.
