had my first flute 'student' tonight - luke did very well. it's fun trying to teach someone to play the flute, or even to get the flute to make a note. elise and i enjoyed.
had youth supper at our place tonight - was jampacked. lots of fun, laughter and conversation - and plenty of food! go mumma go! was good to catch up with a few people i haven't seen for a while, and to go a bit nuts with some of the young people.
interesting sermon tonight from nick green. about purpose and mission. got me thinking a bit about what my part in the big picture is. and how local mission can be overlooked, but how overseas mission is so important too. i guess more forefront of mind though is how do we fix the imbalances - injustice, poverty, environment/circumstances. and how do i, as one person in the 'west' make a significant difference to the billions of people dying physically and spiritually. i don't want it to be something that's just too huge to think about. i don't want to be overwhelmed into inaction. but i'm not sure what i can really do.

Yes - flautist Luke was born this night! I quite enjoyed it! I did have good teacher tho.
See ya spoon
I know what you mean about being overwhelmed into inaction! There's so many things I feel passionately about at the moment - so many things to do - and so many things that I get a glimpse of how things could be if God's people really put effort in and stood up to make a difference - but it's soooooo hard to know where to start at times that I just don't!
