Whats going on????

What isn't going on? Definitely update time, I felt like I wanted to share a bit about whats been going on in my life.
It seems like the past few weeks/months have been mental. I seem to have a lot on my plate and truthfully am unsure of how I am managing to keep it all together and slowly managing to do all the things I am.
I have got some work doing building labour which is an hour's commute away so the days I work are long, am looking for alternative work as I don't think I can keep it up full time.
A lot of my thoughts are tied up in getting the campervan moved forward, I started to restore a 1967 Splitscreen campervan with my dad at the end of last summer and when my dad died at the beginning of the year I became project manager!! So I have been doing a lot of learning and had the responsibility of finishing it. I'm so thankful to one of my really good friends dad 'Mark' as he has given me the confidence, encouragement and time to help me know that we can finish it! The picture below is pretty much what it looks like currently, you can see there is a fair way to go!














Then there is my increased responsibility in the youth group 'Revelation' that I help at, with preparing the next teaching series we will be doing and also more talks/workshops to the groups we have, it gives me such a good place to get better in speaking to groups and grow in the gifts i have got. I'm so passionate about seeing the younger people get involved and see them walk out their lives with the one who IS everything! Jesus :-) Also being involved int the church band playing the drums and other percussive things has been such a great outlet in creativity although sometimes very frustrating!
So as you can see these are just extra things on top of everyday life that I'm doing, sometimes I feel exhausted other times I wonder when I can do more of the things I love, I think I just need to get a healthy balance between all the things I do whilst keeping some time for myself.

ANyway I think thats enough of me for the moment. Phew!! See you soon. :-)
