I'm going paintballing soon.
It's Jade's birthday... I don't know how I feel about it. The paintballing, not the fact it's her birthday...!
I finished babysitting after midnight and couldn't switch my brain off so I watched a movie.
Bride and Prejudice.
I liked it.
I had some weird dreams last night. Not bad... just weird.
So many random people from different parts of my life were in it.
And it was weird.
And it just got to a pretty poignant part... And my dad came in and woke me up asking me what time I was leaving.
I hate that!
Then when I fell back asleep I was back in the dream.
Different part of the same dream.
And I was just getting to the part where a friend and I were going to have a "grown up talk" as I like to call them (you know the ones where you have to be real and open and actually talk about stuff? Maybe even slightly confrontational? yeah.... Im not very good at those...!)
And it was funny how my dream was something that could actually happen in real life.
And then the house phone rang and I got a text at the same time.
And I woke up...
Today I wish I had a big sister. I mean, there have been different seasons in my life where different friends have kind of taken on that role... and it's been good... needed
but
seasons change.
I love my little sister. I think she's the bomb.com but it's different... I'm her big sister... And I love it!
But it's just different.
I've been reading. I havn't done that in a while. But it's interesting... It's about how women are created to be warriors.
I might blog on it soon.
Today, if I had a car, I would drive away with my guitar and journal and go to either of my favourite places (in this part of the world anyways!)
and just... spend time with God.
Away from here.
I'd probably go to the Wye Downs... Hills that overlook the whole of my town.
A couple of weeks ago my pastor mentioned about how sometimes a yearning for the Holy Spirit can have similar "symptoms" to depression.
Lonliness, Irritability.... generally low spirits... Tiredness... Lot's of things.
I need more of Him.
Less of me.

12-14So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It's your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.
15-17Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.
Colossians 3
