something old, something new…welcome 2009

Welcome 2009!

Another’s year gone past… the closure of another chapter, yet with it brings the beginning of another.  I ended the year with a supermad, adro pumpin, totally sick skydive.  The rush of the free fall combined with the silence of parachuted glide, summed up the year’s months, weeks and days.

I read a quote that says, “Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the number of moments that take your breath away”.  That skydive was a moment that took my breath away.  Up 10,000 ft, looking down and across, the view of the ocean was magnificent.  It was a moment that reminded me of how much God loves me.

I sang a chrous that goes, “You walk on waves, You run with clouds, You paint the sky for me to see”.  In the last 29 years so far, I have loved deeply, I was loved much, and I am still loved.  It seems like a roller coaster ride, but in truth, nothing has changed.  Life is still an adventure.  The truth is that I have a God who created the entire universe, who holds the world in His hands, yet who loves me, little me.

So I thank God for an awesome 2008, and am looking forward to an even bigger and better 2009!
