"You are the only true and good Lord of Your field, my heart..."

Carthage500St Augustine - "Confessions" (Book II)

"You awaken us to delight in Your praise, for You made us for Yourself, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You...." (St Augustine, Book I, Chapter 1)

I'm back! After a short break...lent my laptop to my boss. But good to have my dear iBook back. Missed it!...It dawned on me a few days ago that there are only about 6 weeks before I set off for home (KL, Malaysia)...I'm looking forward to it but I am also petrified. It's a huge step to take...After being here for a good 8 years, it's gonna take a lot of getting used to, especially the weather. 6 weeks! And there's so much to do...So much to pack! This has been a decision that has come upon me by surprise but yet, I have a peace in my heart that it is God's timing...6 weeks! 6 more Sunday services and one convention to go and I will be heading home to KL for at least a good 6 months. I'll be back in Melb for a while to settle the new house here. People have asked me, "What next??" To be honest, I don't know. But God knows and I will cling on to Him! And let him direct my path...And surely, there will be a DELIGHT at the end of that path...I will trust and I will claim! Every promise that You made to me and showed me. For you are my Lord and the strength of my heart...the air that I breathe. Lord, how could I live without you? Thank you for picking me up and making me Yours.

"Direct me in the path of your commands, for there I find delight." ... Psalm 119:35

Anyway, foundations for my future house in Melbourne is under way!!! Very excited! This is what it looks like...only in beige and browns instead of grey. Really thank God for His blessing! Will have a house warming end of this year!!! All invited yah?! BBQ and watch the migratory birds fly across in the air...hehehe!

Next few weeks, busy busy trying to round up things at work. But will still do some free-lance consulting for boss...work off site from KL. Not a bad arrangment at all! Thank God for such an understanding boss too. He was all empathetic and supportive of my decision to go back and to take some time off to travel...Even making suggestions where I should go in Europe. Lord, I commit my boss to you. Please continue to guide him to you...I know You love him and cares for him. You've given him a second chance at life...and I pray that He will discover You as he continue in his journey. Amen.

Will miss Melbourne and will miss you!.....HUGS!
