Cleaning!

I have been doing loads of cleaning! It has occured to me that some of you may think I never clean!..Well..

I do clean, of course I do, but I have been doing the sort of cleaning you may call 'spring cleaning'! I probally do it about 3-4 times a year but now I have a house move in mind I am being more ruthless!I have been here almost 32 years and I am sure I have not kept everything for that long..well maybe some of it!

Some of the things I have found were in strange places! You know like I could not have put them there so maybe someone else did!
It must have been me really though..surely?

I am pleased I have made a positive start to sorting out! the house move won't be for a year or two but it might take me that long to get sorted!

My thoughts turn to Christmas..now where are the decorations.. they must be here somewhere..

Choices


I have been thinking about the choices we make and how it affects not only us but the other people we come into contact with.


I was sitting on the Tram on the way home from work. I was tired and the Tram was busy and all I wanted was a cup of Tea! My mind started to wander and I started to think about the choices I had made in my life. I have met some great people because of those choices. I have also seen some great people go from my life because of choices I have made. It was then that I started to think about other people and how their lives would have been different if I had not made the choices that I did make and met them!


I met my lovely Chris because I was taken to a party and I nearly did not go! Meeting him brought his lovely children and grandchildren too. How strange if he had been somewhere else and not here with me.

This also meant that I have talked to them about Jesus and the church. For me I want everyone to know about Jesus and have the chance to make their own choice about him.


What other choices will I make and who else will I meet in my lifetime? I pray I will not miss anyone that God wants me to meet...
