Anyhow, I had two great realisations on the way home.
Firstly, what comfort it is to trust in God. On Graigwen Hill there were points where I seemed helpless to stop my car sliding down the hill into the wall. I am sure many people would have panicked and feared in such a situation and once upon a time that would have been me. Before I left, I prayed for my safety driving and for others safety too and those scary moments came, I stuck to my faith in God and believed that I would get out of this okay. Needless to say, Me & Car are safe at home writing this now!
Secondly, God always provides. Last weekend I went to a youth conference with my friend Alun, it was truly amazing but it was very tiring after a tiring week of work and I kind went straight from that into another tough week of work so I am READY for a rest now! This didn't look likely with a busy-ish weekend ahead but the snow has meant some of my things have been called off. Whilst I miss those things, I look to God in thankfulness for this rest as it was truly needed!
I did take some pictures of me and my car in snow on my phone, but I cannot find the connector to get them to the laptop so you'll have to make do with another picture for now. I promise to put the pictures on here when I can!
This is me and one of my bestest friends Caitlin. She has had a tough week being in charge of her family's thanksgiving this week so I hope this picture makes her smile!! :D
Plus, she gave me a lovely write-up on her blog and I have to pay her back somehow!
I think your blog is wonderful, its definately not boring! I am really glad that you have decided to do this as you are a real true follower of christ and im sure it will influence many people in a really positive way, thankyou for taking the time to do this.

ReplyDeleteHope the snow isn't affecting you badly! I bet the kids love it! See you on sunday :) God Bless!
Okay so I pulled open Blogger and your post was at the top of my Reading List and I saw our picture and then read the title, "Snow, Glorious Snow" so before I read it I was trying to figure out how the two related (seeing as I live in the state which doesn't believe in snow haha) and then I read the post and every thing made much more sense haha!
ReplyDeleteBut I love your insights about how God is always faithful so we can trust Him and He is our provider :) Such an encouraging read!
And thank you so much for posting that picture!! I love it so much :D Definitely made me smile :D (And you don't have to pay me back haha but I appreciate it :D)
