sheep feel funny

Many of my posts remark on how quickly time flies. It is true though and it somehow always amazes me. Think about it. What were you doing a year ago? How many people hadn't known one another or the idea of another? Babies, future husbands/wives?

Well this week I had the wonderful privilege to step into the shoes of most Kiwis and feed baby lambs. Here are some pictures below taken from one of our students named Natalie. Good eh?

We have learned so much this week from a man who helps run the Tauranga House of Prayer (ever heard of the International House of Prayer; this is the New Zealand branch). This guy is unbelievable, here is his blog. I will see if I can put up some of the mp3's of his lectures. It will make your heart and mind explode. He talked about the mercy of Jesus in Peter's life. Have you looked at His mercy? He desires it. How can the Son of God desire mercy when so much of what we do involves an epic fail? I consider myself truly blessed to be doing what I am doing (even if I can't have Mexican food every day).

I'll leave you with some Coldplay lyrics. Music speaks so much to me about life, about God, about His love, and people.

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Fix you by Coldplay
