An Extra Ordinary Life

A Message from God

Again another Month has gone by...

I had a busy July with school holidays and organising a weekend away with our Homeschooling Mums.If you haven't ever done it I recommend it. We are all from different denominations and back grounds but the one common thread among us is Our love of God and homeschooling. We went to a place called Kinglake homestead. It was really good and I had such a lovely time. When you are among a group of women it is always amazing. We are such emotional creatures. The theme was "Don't have too" you did not have to do anything you did not want to . Just recharge and refresh as you felt lead.

I found my self standing at the kitchen sink alot doing the dishes and was duelly teased about it. I love to talk but I guess I also need to have down time. Being at the sink made it so I could rest but still hear what was being talked about .

Anyways. We had an awsome Sunday devotion. I was going to plan somehting but decided to see what would happen.. God comes thru everytime. Someone asked to start it and it turned into a brilliant praise and worship that turned into a prayer laying on hands session (keeo in minds all the different denominations.) I have had an intimated experience with all these women but some barely know each other... Ahhh...

The question was asked we had any wonderous examples of God working in our life. I said "No" then said "that God always put a Chrisitan in my life whenever I needed someone." During our prayers session we were all convited how God can talk to usa thru nature. A friend mentioned how a rose bush that was given to her bloomed on her mothers 1st birthday after she dies.

 I thought wow I have never had an experience like that. Well the day after I got home had a very bad day with the children. I screamed at them and then asked  why I was still doing this even thought God had reminded me on the weekend that he had convicted both dh and I to do this homeschool journey.  

Here is the good part. I went for a walk with Samuel my youngest boy. We passes a place where some lorikeets live and on the road. I looked and felt sad to see one lying on the road. They often swoop down to the grass on the other side of the road and get hit by cars. I supposed this one had been too. I went to move it out of the road and to my surprise it grabbed the stick.. It was alive when I thought it was dead...

Amazing then I thought what am I going to do. I walked the rest of the way home with it .. I kept thinging it was going to die. When we got home I called a friend who rescues animals and she said that he might just be stunned.  It was true ... the bird got better within a couple of house and flew away.

God had spoken to me thru nature... awesome

Wow!

What a beautiful bird. So they live in the wild there? (They are sold in pet shops as pets here).
