In life we face good times and hard times. The good times seem to go so quick and the hard times seem to drag on for eternity. Why is life like this? Guess the thing I've learnt through the hard times is that there's always going to be hard times but you've got to get through them. What would life be like without the hard times? I know it might seem strange to some people but i thank God for the hard times. Through them I come to know how incredibly awesum His love and grace is for us Read this song It was a real birth in a real stable In a real dusty Judean town And a real mother nursed her precious baby And a bunch of wide eyed Sheperds gathered round And real angels sang "Glory" For real hope was born that day I Bet all I have on Jesus I will throw myself on Him for the one who died A real death for real sin I bet all I have on Jesus And throughout eternity I will marvel at the real hope ...

Havn't dun an entry for ages, mainly because i havn't been bothered and have been pretty busy, but i have holidays now so i have a little extra time to catch up on things i used to do. The reason why i've been busy is to do with my car, got the twin carbies on and ran into problems such as an air leak in the head that needed to be blocked off because the inlet manifold didn't match up completly, so it was sounding like a lawn mower and a jet wasn't working, the carbies are now fine but the inlet vlave on the first cylinder is gone so i have very little compression, so now the head is getting reconditioned, very costly but its worth it as the car will run alot mre smoothly and God willing i won't have any problems with the head again. For all of you who don't know much about cars and don't really care, that whole paragraph probably went right over your head, thats ok but i hope this next one doesn't Easter was just last week, how many people went to church just ...

life seems alot busier than it was last year, not much free time anymore :(, but thats not all bad, its good to be doing something all the time :). Went to see a band called "faker" last night, they were really good. the three bands before them were ok. Lots of uni students as it was at the uni bar. Anyway the story begin after the concert. I went up with my mate Benje and walked back to the car after the show, turned the ignition and nothing happened, bummer!, was the it the battery? was it the starter motor? was it an ignition lead or could it be the distributor. All of these things were were running through my mind. Convinietly enough i'd left the jumper leads at home because my dad car has a flat battery. Firt option was to clutch start, that is to roll it down a hill wth the ignition on and then let it out of gear., NO LUCK!. we popped the bonnet and there was a noise comming from the positve battery terminal, strange! two guys from the show were walking ...

heaps has been happenin lately. Between tafe, work, scripture teachin and youth group, taekwondo and the gym i don't have heaps of free time. But thats ok, its good to be doing something instead of wasting time that could be used doing something. Guess lately i've just been realising how amazing Jesus and what He did on earth, alot! Karin talked to me about Mark 5:1-20, which is about the healing of the demon possesed man. I never realised how amazing it was. First there was this guy possesed by all of these demons and lived in these tombs by himself. No one could bind the man, because of this super-human strength he had because of the demons 3 This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him any more, not even with a chain. 4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him. 5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with ...

How many of us can accuse God and get mad at Him when things get us realy down? I know I can. In my meeting with the other youth leaders from church this morning I learnt some pretty amazing stuff. I felt some pretty amazing stuff. As Christians we go through very hard times. When I wasn't a Christian I went through some pretty rough stuff aswell, but never called on God. Never acknowlegded Him and if it was it would be "Why are you doing this?" "What have i possibly done to deserve this?", Now I realise that I deserve everything that comes at me, I don't deserve to live. I've rejected God and His word so many times, yet He still called me back. He saved me... As a Christian, rough and bad times can bring about mixed feelings, still, "Why are you doing this?", then you realise. Jesus not only died for me. He suffered for me. Jesus not only was put on the cross. He was beaten. Jesus was laughed at, wrongly accused. How many of us get anoyed ...
