first step
eilidhbelsham, 23:01h
SO, I'm on to a new stage in life.Or rather, back to the one I knew for 25 yrs. I don't feel like I expected. Just flat. And trying not to be sad. And trusting, or rather knowing, this was the right thing and waiting for God to lead me.

Holiday and back with a bump
eilidhbelsham, 23:18h
So, been a while hasn't it, whoops? And this despite the fact that my week at Abernethy really got rid of my lethargy. I think that's what bothers me most about working the long hours- the inability at evening to do anything; not cook, not clean, not read, let alone keep in touch with friends. On top of the wieghed down from work, I'm also feeling a bit weighed down by the battle that is the Christian life. It's a kind of felling of "where do I start", "this battle will be all my life - I just don't have the energy". I really thank God for scripture. For the truths that remind me I am a conqueror. My trials don't have to be a burden. That Jesus has already won the battle foe me on the cross. Wow. Praying that the head truths anchor in my heart....
BUt to my holiday - it was great. I'm so thankful for the fact that mum and dad got the time share up atAbernethy Trust. It's such a great place, and a special place. A place where I fought some real battles, had some hard times as a teenager, but where I really learnt that a life with God is worth it all.We did a lot of hiking and biking. And eating and drinking to balanca it out. And I didn't think about work :-). I long to use my business abilities in a Godly environment. I'm praying God will show me how. And praying for the courage to know and follow his leading.
Anyway, Friday night and after a week of getting up at 5.30, I'm done. How people do it I don't know. And I'm supposedly young....?!

new occupations
eilidhbelsham, 22:12h
Finally managed how to create a blog. Ridiculously easy actually. And now I can hopefully stop blog lurking and do a little bit of blogging myself!
SO here's me
Scottish, tho I do admit to being a bit of a Mischling, living in and enjoying Germany. Working in the software industry. Love the pace, not conviced about the greater good of it....
Christian. (That probably should have gone first!) And so thankful for Grace. But still kind of working it out. Working out life. Figuring out faith. Learning I don't have to do it by myself. But can't get rid of the independent driven streak!!
