But I love it!

Once again today despite getting up at 530 am and leaving the house at 6 I come away from the conference room in Coventry after 3 pm really thanking God for the privileged job I have. I am so lucky and so grateful.

Apart form anything else I am always prompted to thank God when I leave early in the morning. The absence of cars, clear skies, quietness and stillness make it virtually impossible to ignore God’s creation. It is there staring you in the face and make some form of worship activity very easy with so much to bounce from. I really should get up earlier on the odd morning to experience it from outside a metal can!

Actually the day got off to a good start in my appraisal with Richard in the sun at Coventry at 9am. It was a good time – targets are being met and I still have a job!! Richard is very good at telling me when I do something that is good. It’s so important and I think we all need to hear that – and the more the better.

The rest of the day was talking again about the integrate mission strategy of YFC and how we wish to listen to the dreams of centres and see if we can work together to move those dreams on to becoming realities. Taking local evangelism one step further!

It is just great to be able to meet with my friends from YFC who have a great passion for the young people of this country. I even got to meet new people today, and possibly added another blogger to my friendship list. We may also have converted another person to blogging … we shall see.

I did also see a great paper blog – yes such things would seem to exist and very good it looked too. I think I may have just thrown a comment gauntlet down to a good friend!!
