Cliff a small snippet

At cliff they do a thing called LNE which is really cool! And they usually have like a speaker and a prayer and a response to either of these at some point in the evening (the theme of festival was change, so Friday night was God the same, Sat: change the world, Sun: change the church, Mon: Change me) So Sunday I went to LNE and at the beginning of worship I sat there think I’m going to have to text someone about GOD and then the speaker got talking and he was saying how we as a generation had so many ways of communication and the more how he spoke the more I felt I really had to text/tell someone it was like my heart felt really warm so he got to the response And he said I don’t want anyone to stand up out of emotion, just out of reason if anyone wants to commit wholly to To spreading the gospel outside cliff festival stand up, think about it and stand up And I sat there thinking well if I stand up it's an emotional response I can’t And the more I thought this the more I f...

What an amazing two years, but really what an amazing 18 years

Within the last five minutes the realisation that sixth form is coming to an end is rather to close for comfort. I know that exams for some of us (well me) are rather a way off yet but for most Friday is the last official day of college. Again I am bucking the trend and Thursday is my last day. It's strange how quickly time goes, cause it only seems like yesterday that I was here before at the end of high school, my last day, waiting to go to cliff, turning 16 strangely ambling past people avoiding saying the dreaded goodbye. The only difference is in a way I was glad to leave high school (yes I do think that 14 G.C.S.E's was way too much). However the friends and the experiences at Sixth Form will inevitably make me sad to leave Notre Dame. Maybe that’s why I'm not so sad I'm missing Friday to go to Cliff but rather glad to be putting off saying goodbye because this way I can leave it for just a few more days. Get used to the idea that I will no longer have to get up a...
written at worship leaders last night Crashing round, crashing sound Surrendering and bowing down Breaking the bread Drinking the wine Coming to the Lords table to dine Sharing the fellowship Making amends Sing Your praise Of which will never end Many tears of faith and joy Sadness, fear and confusion He takes our hands within his own And helps us join as one So here we take off our shoes Become broken here before you Warm our hearts with love and grace And we shall smile As we depart from this hall We know that you shall not call As we will walk with you

yes i really am an accident prone walking disaster

how often do accidents bring what makes you smile. I have once again twisted my ankle, i was thinking about the last time I did it. life hasnt been the same since. life also hasnt been the same since i pulled my achilles tendon, i made some fantastic friends in doing that. other accidents include spilling half a tonne of coffee over the canteen, or slicing your finger off.... tripping over a guy rope...... um 27 times accidents maybe the way that we learn something about ourselves. and they are not in itself always bad.

late nights, early mornings, special connections, and half a tonne of texts :P

One of these days when I say "I'm going to have an early night" I might actually preceed not to get distracted. Okay so in this case it's not a bad distraction but a rather a much enjoyed and welcome one, none the less :P any way today in the car on the way to drop of my course work (yep it's all done)we where discussing assemblies. now there is a link to what i'm going to type about which is special connections. In my time i have done many assemblies, i have also seen some memorable ones, such as the one with the massacre of the ty beanie baby, or the one where our teacher ate dog food, and even one where we looked at a clip and completely missed the mouse. yet one which stands out kinda just for comedy genius is by a teacher who can only be described as the man who speaks in metaphors. He told this story, its about a special connection There was a man who lived just away from a village, he was a holy man who prayed and prayed, and belived that god wou...
