Back again

Wow its been a while since my last blog and I made a commitment to write one every week. Nevertheless here I am. With Christmas around the corner we have so much stock arriving every day its frightening. Spreadsheets, invoices, costings, bank transfers and delivery notes fill my days.

I walked down to this river every day.
It did all get a bit much so I went off to the mountains for a week all on my own. It was a very special time for me. I spent time praying for my friend's health (and her birthday), people's marriages, my husband and children's futures and direction for Fat Tuesday. My plan was to shoot the breeze with the Lord and get some guidance, input, revelation... something! Well we shot the breeze but the revelation only came once I was back in my car driving home with my music playing on loud. The revelation was that God can only use me when I am in my business being around people. Hiding in the mountains I am useless to Him.

So here I am back with the noise and the people and hopefully of some use to someone.
