It's Tuesday?!

Not had a moment to update this since Thursday. It's my day off today and I'm just chilling with Blue and Jesus. This morning I read a familiar passage again in Matthew 19. It's were the discpiples ask him who can be saved. For the first time I imagined their indignation that it would be hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. You can hear their "I've given all up for you what do I get" and Jesus with such grace tells them what they will receive in eternity.
I want eternity back in my heart. Really been thinking about this a lot lately. How I can just live my life on a daily basis without thinking about eternity anymore like I used to. Especially in the last few weeks it has hit home how uncertain life can be. Really been struggling with back pain from work, to the point over the weekend where I just wanted to cry and give up. It just scared me in terms of my own shop and whether I can cope with the amount of walking and standing on my feet all day long. But this morning I am reminded that if we trust in God and put our worries in his hands he will look after the plans he has in our life. Not being idle but trusting our mental worries to him.

On a more update note these are a few of the things I have done over the last few days:
Dinner with George and Jan and Craig in an Italian in Cheadle.
Worked on Saturday and Sunday.
coffee with Marta in town.
Worked again on Monday and then went riding ( for the first time in ages really enjoyed riding Kate)
Spending lots of quality time with Craig.
So really a lot of work, work and more work.
