Things i have learned


We are headed back to Yeppoon , back to live on the land with the rest of the landlubbers. As i look back to all i have experienced on the sea it has been such a amazing experience . To see nature in it's rarest form . The Great Barrier Reef and some of the most beautiful places in the whole world . To be blessed to walk on white sand , and snorkel in cobalt blue waters with the fish and turtles !. To be there to help a stranded  giant sea turtle upright itself so it could get back into the sea .  The days we would just fish all day then come in for a cuppa and take a nap ! that was my whole day folks ;) no people at work harassing me , no call lights blinking like mad with impatient patients waiting to rip my face off . no setting the alarm clocks to wake up to pure exhaustion  only to hit it 5 times for 5 more minutes . Or the ever popular ' nurse finders the agency where i worked would Call me off after getting dressed to go to work !  no warming the car up while i force myself to the car knowing another day of STRESS was following me like a shark .

I like this life i would not ever look back and wonder what i missed !
what i left behind maybe has good friends , good memories and my family
but i gained so much more in blessings than i can ever dream to imagine !


Jesus says in Luke 6:38 "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure,
pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your
bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to
you." Many people have read this scripture and always associate it with
money or financial gain, but money is not mentioned anywhere in the
scripture. Jesus says, give and It will be given unto you good measure,
pressed down, shaken together, and running over. That It is what ever it
is that you need. If you are in need financially, then give to God what
finances that you do have now. If you are in need of a friend, then be a
friend to someone else today. Whatever the need is in your life; give what
you have to God now and He will multiply it and bring it back to you. The
Scripture says, give and It will be given unto you. 



I am no exception to this rule 
anyone can be blessed with happiness 
but you first have to rust in what GOD wants for your life 
not what you think you want 
and i promise HE will amaze you once you let HIM have his way .


I was in a 9 year relationship . one with no commitment 
no love of GOD no promise for the future 
going no where !
and when i let GO and let GOD have his way in my life 
it was almost unreal how he opened the doors of ALL areas of my life .
As the doors were slamming in my face in America 
the windows flew wide open in Australia 
As i let go of all my hurts and the  desires i thought i needed to be happy 
God brought Rob into my life !
a man that loves the Lord 
that loves me 
and wanted to share his world and love with me .


This time it was not just him and me 
it is GOD rob and me 
a perfect trio sailing all over Australia in Queensland 


dont ever think GOD is not powerful enough to change your 
STRESSED out dull , boring , unfulfilled life .
like mine was 


Our GOD is a awsome GOD 
he wants to bless you you are HIS child 
the secret to having those blessings 
is LETTING GO and letting GOD 


God bless you 
and stay tuned 
im not leaving the blog 
my life in Australia has just begun ;)
