It has been a long time since I posted. I guess I felt like I created blog this so I could let people know about my preparation for my missions trip over a year ago. And then after I returned I didn't really have anything to say. I suppose I could have mentioned the Beach Mission I went on over the summer and what lead me to do that, but I didn't. I just felt like this account had become redundant and I didn't really have anything to say that people would be interested in hearing or that I could be bothered sharing. I felt like anything I put up needed to be related to missions as that what I created it for.
But I realised that it doesn't need to be about missions trips or to be written for people to read. It doesn't really matter if people read what I write. And according to my stats people have been reading this over the past year of no activity. So I can only hope that what I write brings glory to God. And to achieve that I might as well write.
I doubt that I will have much time to write this year, but it is worth at least trying to write. So I am going to start by saying that I was recently introduced to a group called BlimeyCow! If you ask any member of my family they will tell you I am obsessed. I prefer to say that I just really appreciate and enjoy their videos, especially their Messy Monday series! Every Monday (US time) they post a new video on Youtube. These videos address social issues and serve to challenge and encourage viewers. They are aimed at teens and young adults, but I know that many people of all ages enjoy them. I think part of what I appreciate the most is their honesty, reality and partly their sarcasm. Their main purpose is to encourage people to think about the way they live, especially whether it glorifies God.
I would encourage everyone to have a look at their stuff, so here are some links to their pages:

I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do!
