Wow! Jesus is Good
I feel better after the last couple of weeks
Jesus did a big thing in my life on the 10th August 09 and then things happened and a lot of things went bang, but I am now back on track and things are good.
I praise God for everything in my life and choose to live in the blessing zone, where everything is seen as positive and used by God, rather than seeing the negative.
I am moving forward with Jesus and the hope I have in my heart grows stronger with every message I hear, but I find it difficult to remember the things to do, so I just trust God to help and he usually does.
I want to have a testimony of God's provision and I guess in many ways I already do but I want to get into the realm of the supernatural.

At home with Mum
Things are great with Jesus, but home is more than a little stressful.
I love mum heaps but her way of being just creates extra friction and stress.
I realise I don't help much but I do what I can when I can and it is so frustrating, and hurtful when she goes off on one. I don't think she realises how much these outbursts hurt me or the damage she does when she does them.
I feel so poorly today anyhow and she did not help by behaving the way she did. It is really hard to let these things pass because they hurt,while at the same time it diminshes my understanding and desire to take these outbursts seriously, because as she said herself, it is just her.
My expectations of what are my responsabilities in the home are very small because she does not allow me to do so much and there are things that I cannot do.
I also have physical problem as well which have never seemed to bother her, as much as she complains about the arthritis in her ankle, and the work she has to do in the garden.
I desparately want things to be better between us, not that we don't have a good relationship already most of the time, but knowing she feels the way she does which causes the outburst today, makes life a little more of a burden.
I am her daughter not a replacement for Dad which is how I feel sometimes, having to live my life in her pocket

Cows and Gas
I just watched Countryfile talking about the methane gas which cattle produce, causeing more problem than planes, trains and automobiles. Those of us who eat meat are made to feel guilty about what we do, by people who believe that that to be a vegatarian.
I understand that there is a problem, but there is an issue with the millions of acres of rainforest which is being destroyed to plant soya beans, which are a staple of the vegi diet, which is the most environmentally friendly.
Using the methane as an energy source is a very sensible way forward, but whatever kind of diet we eat there will be an environmental impact. Stopping one thing, in favour of another thing, may have a detrimental effect that we haven't recognised yet.
We have messed around so much with the planet already, I wonder whether as human beings we have the skills and ability to recover.
As a Christian I believe we can do alot in the way of recycling and composting, but it will take a miracle for us to stop the ongoing damage and have a certain amount of restoration.
The future of the planet rests in God's hands.
I feel sad for the people who have no faith, because it is a very frightening time to live in, if they truly think that the fate of the planet is destruction, which right now it probably is, but what they don't wholly realise is that they are heading on a path to eterenal death and destruction.
