Let us start with the last week of Lectures. Gwendy spoke about Fear of the Lord, and explained that fear is part awe and respect, part obedience, and If you do that, the afraid aspect isn't as scary. We also talked about brain/addiction connections and chose something we each want to change about our thinking. things like not judging, not complaining, not speaking ugliness and the like. Christmas. We decorated the base, had an awesome Christmas party, did the secret Santa thing, and I spent my Christmas day on the beach eating BBQ kangaroo (tastes like wild beef) and wishing I knew how to surf. All in all, I had an amazing Christmas, even though I missed home a little bit.
At 4AM that weekend we headed off to Airlie Beach for a week of Impact Summer. On the way there, I was in the bus, and I slept most of the way. that is a really good thing, because it has no AC, and it blew a tire... I slept through almost 16 hours of it. We were working with two other YWAM bases running the Chai tent. I spent a lot of it talking to these four travelers from Sweden and France about anything from God to art and tattoos. They are some really cool guys. We also took shifts praying for the town, cleaning, praising and all the other goodness like that. Crazy thing, one time there was a bunch of us randomly doodling during prayer, and three of us drew the same thing, A tent with a vortex of fire and guardian angels protecting and inviting the way to Heaven. Later that day,someone read about the tent of meeting (Exodus33). IT WAS AN EXACT DESCRIPTION OF WHAT WE DREW! How sweet is that? The way back was uneventful, except for minor sunburn and I wrote a story. uhm... yeah. not much else is happening. I still learn so much every day, and I encourage you to ... ya know... message me!
