real mobile computing

well I think the era of real mobile computing has really come. I am writing this on my N97. I have just read someone elses blog, posted a comment on it, and now I am writing this. My callender and address book are updated to my phone over the 3G network and I can access all sorts of info via the web. Information is truly ubiquitous. I am truly amazed!!!!!

Deliberate Living

Well there are a few things that have happened in the last few weeks, one of them being several nights with Dr Peter Daniels at a conference at World Harvest. One thing rediscovered for me was the phrase "a sense of Destiny". Sometimes we need to rediscover things that get lost in the whirl wind of life.
If we are not careful we can fall into a "subsistent lifestyle", Living from day to day and waiting for a set of predetermined parameters to to occur before we can start "living life". In doing so we give up our control and decision making to some external source. Something that makes us truly human is our ability to make decisions about how we live our lives. A consequences of living subsistently is that we can often start to feel trapped and caged in, and then frustration sets in.
One of the gifts that God has given us is the "freedom of choice". I am also convinced that He has an ultimate plan for our lives and that we have the freedom to choose whether to follow this plan or not.
A phrase that I have been contemplating is "deliberate living", I think we need to consider carefully how we are going to live and make deliberate choices rather than float along with out purpose, controlled by external factors. I think that we have to seek after that ultimate plan and start to live deliberately making good choices that will lead us along that path.
Not all of us are called to become multimillionaires like Peter Daniels, but we can all have a significant impact upon the people around us by deliberately choosing to have a positive influence in every situation that we are involved in. Let us seek out Gods purpose for us all individually and rediscover what it is like to live with "A Sense of Destiny".

Wow talk about changes in your life, mine is going to never be the same, I am experiencing a liberty that I haven't had for a long time. I have a lightness and a joy that I can't explained from an earthly perspective.

CS Lewis said "If you discover a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, then perhaps you should ponder that you were created for another world."

That is exactly what I am experiencing, the reality of what Jesus did for me on the cross, and the recent pruning of what was unfruitful in my life has freed me to be what I should be, a free child of His. And so I am living in supernatural joy and loving it

Well 2009 was quite a year, full of its ups and downs. Most years I have a "lets get refreshed and get on with what we are doing last year" attitude, but this year everything is up in the air.

I'm currently getting refreshed on my annual holiday, all sorts of options are open to me, new study options, new job options and new social group options.

I am fully convinced that for me 2010 will be a completely new year and I don't know what it will bring, however I know that my Heavenly Father is all loving and all powerful and he has made a promise to me;

NASB: Jeremiah Chapter 29
11. 'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.

and I'm claiming that promise and all I can say is "watch this space"
