Wednesday night and in 24 hours time I'll be winging my way over to the USA with MaryAnn beside me sipping on a wine and hopefully not worrying about the kids back at home. Very excited at the prospect of connecting with Erwin McManus and the team at Mosaic, LA.
Really aware of the privilege that has been afforded to Maryann and I by our church in Nelson, City Church, and know that God has got stuff in store for all of us. A friend back here in Nelson, Dave Lee, rang to say he had picture of MaryAnn and I treading a path scattered with gems that God had gone ahead and prepared for us. I was wearing a shoulder bag and we were just leaning over and picking up these glistening, precious things, looking forward to bringing them home to Nelson and letting them shine amongst the family here.
I'm taking my guitar with me and trusting that there may be times where sharing my story with a song may be the most appropriate thing. We will be connecting with our mates, Jim and Linda Sawyer and their three boys, in Denver and Jim has asked me to lead a chapel time at the high school where he works so that should be cool.
Maryann and I have just celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary and the chance to hangout with one another for a couple of weeks, exploring God stuff together feels about as close to a second honeymoon as I can imagine. Adventures ahead - next stop LA.
