Interesting Article
I came across this interesting article.
"It is 97 per cent certain that God raised Jesus Christ from the dead - based on sheer logic and mathematics, not faith - according to Oxford professor Richard Swinburne."
If you like maths (or proofs) you will like it.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16

The Fantastic 4:
1) I had church today. The message was on the parable of the sower. We talked about how it's not a statistic (75% reject the bible and 25% accept it) but it is a reality that many people reject the bible. I thought that it was fantastic that God has revealed himself to me and that I can follow him and receive eternal life.
2) After church today I went to castle towers to watch fantastic 4 with my jnr girls. It was an alright movie. I wouldn't see it twice though. It was fantastic being able to hang out with my girls in a non-bible-study environment and get to know them better (they are are major Harry Potter fans with one of the girls already finished reading the 6th book - ie: read it in one day).
3) I got 4 distinctions for uni! That's a distinction in all of my subjects which I'm feeling fantastic about. One bad thing though is that my dad said: "You can only get better now" and I'm not sure if i can get better... I set the standard too high! LOL!
4) The bible rocks! I've been reading it a lot more lately because conference has inspired me to become more sound in doctrine, and how else to become sound in doctrine than to read my bible and get to know it better! Here is a fantastic passage: Then the Jews demanded of him, "What miraculous sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?" Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days." The Jews replied, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?" But the temple he had spoken of was his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the Scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken. -John 2:18-22.

Feeling full in many ways.
Hey there everyone!
I'm feeling really full at the moment because I had lunch of kfc just 4 hours ago and just had dinner of lasagne which is always filling. I had something interesting that I wanted to share with you all but I've forgotten what it was. How sad for us all. I decided that I won't upload a picture today because I don't want to overload my blog with very cool pictures.... otherwise when I run out of very cool pictures you will all be overly dissappointed. I hope you aren't overly dissappointed now. Emails are good. I just got an email from an old friend. It was a long email, and I replied with a long email. It made me feel good. You guys should try it some time. It's very fulfilling writing a long reply to someone. That's all from me today!

This entry is a dedication to the pens that I thought I lost but didn't. My crayola "CLICKemON" markers. They were given to me on my 16th (i think) birthday from my very very good friend Jen. I've used them alot. I mainly use them when I write birthday cards amd make wrapping paper. I like them because you can click them together and they are crayola... which means that they have very pretty colours. Recently when I was looking for them, I couldn't find them! This greatly distressed me because it meant that they could be 2 hrs away from me. Luckily they were only 2 mins away from me in my dad's ute. I intend to use them in the future. I love my pens!

This is a bit of a sad entry. I'm running low on the happiness because I miss my conference buddies! Conference is the short name for ISCF Leadership Conference. I was leading at it this year. I just love the conference vibe. If you've ever been to a conference you will know what I'm talking about. Anyway the vibe basically encapsulates good bible teaching with great people and God's love. The picture is of my little group (minus Grant the other leader and Dave who left early). From left to right there is Marko-Polo, Haidee, Buffy, Josie, Liz and Pritika. At conference we looked at the book of Titus which was all about leadership. It was really challenging and I'm praying that I will be able to put what I learned into practice. Here is a challenging verse from Titus 2:11-12: For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age. From Car-O-Line
