At present I stand jobless, despite having applied for over 10 jobs since November and getting to various rounds, including the final round of applications at least 3 times. It’s getting close to September now and if I haven’t got an accountancy job by then, then I’ll have to wait a year to get something, which is not great news, as I have no idea what else I could do that I would enjoy as much as Accountancy and it would mean doing all the applying and job interviews again!
Homeless, well I’m not homeless, I’m living at home with my parents but the longer the job hunt goes on the more the chances of getting a house with some other guys in the church seems to disintegrate.
And hopelessly reliant on God, well to clarify I’m hopeless in being able to make any of this happen, I apply, yes but I have no control over whether I get the job beyond my interview preparation, and the amount of interviews I’ve done that must be pretty good!
So I’m reliant on God for a job, a house, leading the Students & 20s next year and so much more!!! Sometimes when I sing “It’s all for you Lord”, I think it should be “it’s all on you Lord” but hey he has done it all he has conquered sin and death he reigns supreme over all powers and authorities (Colossians 1:15-18 and Romans 8:35-39), so who better to rely on, who better to trust with my burdens and cares than him!

Summer, summer, summer time
I had hoped to blog more than I have but a variety of problems, lack of internet on my computer and my pen drive not working on our home pc, have made it difficult.
I made it to my first Brighton Conference in two years, and it was fantastic, really amazing the passion of the worship and the truth, accuracy and the linking of the teaching meant it was a thoroughly good time. Mark Driscoll brought several messages that had a prophetic nature for Newfrontiers and came with the sharpness of scriptures double-edged sword.
I bought one book at Brighton, Spurgeon's All of Grace (I had been reading on-line) only £2.99!!! It's a fantastic book with great truth and has helped me to grasp the simplicities of grace.
The Tour de France has been a mixture of emotions, Mark Cavendish's three stage wins have made fantastic viewing and Frank Schleck has been great (inspite of his crash see... http://youtube.com/watch?v=t1-WSpiTFR0 ) however the three positive drugs tests have shown that cycling is still tainted.
I would love to go into more depth but haven't the time at this point, but I would like to just add the point that, In my opinion riders don't take drugs because the race is to difficult, they do it to get an advantage to win.
