Sunrise, Shopping and Spiritual Nourishment (A good combination!)

Hey all!
Well, not wanting to rub it in or anything for all you working folk among us, but i'm just back from a wee shopping trip to Belfast and it was fantastic! So many shops, so little time! I think shopping should actually be classified as a sport, i mean theres all that power walking around and then theres the skill involved in finding the best bargains and fighting the fellow shoppers for your size of top, before the quick sprint to the checkout! Anyway, i managed to get a few bargains, so i'm happy, shopping gives you such a buzz!!

Oh, on a completely different point (yet related to my last blog), i saw the sunrise on wednesday from the train! Yes, thats how early i was up, hope yous are impressed?! And it was so so pretty! Even worth getting up for every once in a while! Although, you've gotta pick a good clear morning, like wednesday, but i'm sure Callum would be able to tell you when its gonna be a good day!! Have to say i've really enjoyed my last week off, before I start placement- scary! You know i've been off that long for summer hols (Nearly 5 months actually- how jammy am I?), but yeah, ive been off that long that I really can't imagine working full-time- it's like an alien concept to me! lol! I reckon itll kill me to start off with!

Before i go, one of the wee footnotes in the Life Application Bible made a class point. It said we get spiritual nourishment not only by what we take in (through bible study, prayer, church etc), but also by what we give out (through doing Gods will, his work). And it's so true, we've gotta have both in our lives, taking in aswell as giving out. One last little quote:
"Faith is a gift that grows as we use it."
Thats me for now, but i'm sure ill talk to you all soon! Have a good weekend!!
xoxo
