Apple Pie in the Sky

Ok so a million years after everyone else...I'm starting a blog! Woo look at me.
I used to think of blogs as quite egotistical and to be fair, they are! But I still find myself drawn to reading and enjoying them so I've set up my very own. Read it if you like, or don't...

Hopes Set High. This is my statement of faith. I have hopes, I have them set high and amazingly I have a God that exceeds them.
I am hopeful from the minuscule to the humongous.
I am hopeful as a choice.
I am hopeful not because of my own abilities or strengths but because God is faithful, kind and just that good.
I hope that my life will be an adventure, filled with laughter, challenges and love.
I hope that I eat some really good food (this will be a common theme!)
I hope for a new home soon.
I hope that my life will glorify God in all I do.

Now that I've had my Veruca-Salt-style 'I want the whole world' spiel, I need to acknowledge that I've had a good few of my hopes and dreams realised already...
I had a wonderful childhood in a secure, loving and supportive family
I have a great job, in a great church and love what I do everyday.
I married an amazing man who's kind, forgiving and handsome.
I've made precious friendships with people who I admire, love and can be myself with.

After only 25 years on this earth and all those good things, you can see why my hopes are set high!

Well...how else would the little old ant have moved that rubber tree plant?!

I hope that this will be a place for me to share the significant and substantial but also futile and fun things that are happening around me so...let's see how we go!
