a blast from the past
Hey all!!
Well…that’s me, back at work…guess where at? McDonalds!! I love it in there though, I really do. Call me sad, most people do, but it’s a fun job. I work in the one just off the M74, about an hours work from my house…keeps me fit!!
However, with starting back at work, comes many other things, but I’ve only got time to share one little hiccup with you today. I work here every summer, it’s a great job, really!!! Anyway, as I left one summer, someone else started, we’ll call him Andrew. We worked together for two weeks, and I have vaguely known him from school; he was in the year below me. Anyway, come Valentines Day the next year, my twin received a massive box of chocolates from Thorntons and a CD, 40 ways to say I love you! That year was a lonely year for myself…my long-term relationship had just ended. Anyway…she got this beautiful card with words of gold written in it, signed secret admirer. A month or so following that, I received a letter, from Andrew. In it he wrote that he was in love with me and that he had been wanting to tell me for ages, hoping I would feel the same way. Unfortunately, I didn’t. I felt so bad returning to work that summer, seeing him again made my skin crawl. I saw him yesterday at work, and this time, I felt ok. I am so glad that that can be put behind us.
Anyway, from one exciting thing to another…I don’t know if I have mentioned this, but my family and some others, are starting up a church in our local neighbourhood. Anyway…we had asked if we could use one of the local church halls, to host our meeting (the church where my parents were married) but they kindly rejected us. Anyway…we have a couple of people who want to get baptised and they have allowed us to borrow their hall to carry out this service. It will be June the 23rd, the same day my twin was baptised and the same day of the battle of Bannockburn in 1314. heehee!!
Also, we just finalised a groovy little local for the church too, with the church title being “Hope Christian Fellowship”. How great is God? I mean seriously, when you think about everything that He does for us, how much He loves us unconditionally… and how much He will forever forgive us. Another of my old poems which I wrote, follows.
Jesus
You’re the one who gives me hope
Without you I could not cope
In other peoples time of need
You use me to plant the seed
Thank you Lord for using me
To tell of all You’ve done for me
To tell them of Your love
That You sent from above
You O God, love us so much
After we caused You to be hurt
On the cross You died in pain
Here I am the one to blame
I nailed You to that cross
Without realising what it cost
Yet You continue to love and hold me
In Your arms is where I love to be
You are my Lord and King
Praises to You I will sing
I will see You face to face
In that Holy wondrous place
peace out
