hey. i just watched this really creepy movie at tv2. lucky thing i'm not afraid of the dark. earlier i was at the "mission church" :p well, and there you could share something if you wanted to, and i was once again reminded of psalm 139:13-18 (niv)

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.

it speaks of the beauty of everything. reminds me that i'm not allowed to think any less of myself than god does. and that thought kinda releases something. frees me. it's liberating to know the answer. how do i look? beautiful. and what about you? beautiful. i think it's important to acknowledge the beauty of god's creation, including oneself..

it's late. i'm supposed to be at work in 7,5 hours.

you're loved

gnarly :)

well, i have to admit that i get freaked out sometimes by the thought of being "alone" on litterally the other side of the earth, only 19 years old with hundreds and thousands of kilometers between me and my family and friends. it's not that i doubt it will be amazing and an experience for life, it's just i'm this do-first-think-after kind of person. and i know there's nothing wrong about that. that's what got me to australia in the first place. me discovering hillsong actually ran a college and just applying because i knew this was it; god's plan for my life. not just a part but the "the real deal of god's greater plan" (ciwi <7). i know all this so well, i'm so convinced that this is what i'm supposed to do. and i'm not worried about school. it's just what if i say and do something really dorky, lets say my first day there. it would totally fit with a description of me. i'm not easily embarrassed, but the thought of the likeliness of that kinda scares me. i feel all 6-years-old again, living at a new place, not knowing anyone. and the thought that comes to mind first day of school: "what if no one likes me". i'm aware of the childishness and the unlike me weariness in all this. but it's just a mess of thoughts. sorry.

so i'd better go to bed, memorize philippians 4:6-7 and tell all of you guys "g'night mate!"
