http://uk.tickle.com/test/iq/start.html


these were my results-
Your IQ score is 129!

You are equipped with a verbal arsenal that enables you to understand complex issues and communicate on a particularly high level, making you a Word Warrior. Your command of words is so powerful that you are also a terrific communicator -- able to articulate big ideas to just about anyone.

The power of words translates to fresh ideas off paper too, in both artistic and creative pursuits. This allows you to be a visionary -- to extrapolate and come up with a multitude of fresh ideas.

James

so for homegroup we're reading James and learning a couple of verses

James is such a fantastic book of the Bible .... but it is a bit scary cos as I pour through the verses and chapters I realise how far short I fall from God's standards.

Reading it effected me. I prayed before I went to work and asked God to help me throughout my day - I think my day went better cos I made a real effort to be positive in all my conversations and to be patient when dealing with people shorter than myself.

It has been a good day.

Seven 7 Seven - tagged

Ok my top 7 numbers - that's so tough it's totally harsh man - I love so much music in the world

I've tried to choose a range from different genres Christian, Jazz, Classical, Rock etc to give you a flavour!

THESE ARE IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER!

1 - Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2
Faith, Political message, unbeatale sound, memories of teenage angst! What's not to love here!

2 - Un bel di, vedremo from the opera Madama Butterfly by Puccini
This is one of the most sublime pieces of music I have ever heard- the music alone serously stirs me - try it.

3 - Fly me to the moon by Sinatra
So romantic - playful - dreamy - everything a girl would ask for.

4 - Moondance by Van Morrison
This one is a personal reason that i'm not gonna share with everyone else - I love the song but it's got memories man.

5 - How Much We Can Bear - By Hezekiah Walker
Black Gospel choir number which talks about Calling on Jesus - the music emulates the message - as the song gets tougher we press into God harder!

6 - Don't stop me now by Queen
This song totally rocks - i sung it with a couple of mates of mine all the way to Winchester on our way to a party and it became our University Anthem - Good times

7 - Elephant Love Melody from Moulin Rouge
I love this - it's so clever how all the different songs knit together - This is deffo my fav Musical.

FINALLY MY FAV CHORUS -
Voice of Hope - By Lara Martin
THis is my testimony about the little one - i can't sing it without choking up with tears

do you ever have those times where you say something and then wish you could take it back?

sometimes I say stuff and later i think - why did i say that - some things seem like a good idea at them time and then.... light dawns - i should have kept it shut.

first steps of a different kind

So the little angel took first steps today - I help out a toy infront of her and she took 3 little shuffles to get it. I scooped her up in my arms and whooped for joy.
She is such an amazing blessing.

Thankyou God

sometimes God says no

I'm reading a book at the moment called 'Finding God in the Wilderness'

One of the points i read this morning was that God sometimes says no to the things you want.
Jesus said to His Father - “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.”
And the Father - His Father - said no - because He had a greater purpose.

Sometimes God says no to us - even when it's something we want really bad, even when it's something good - because He has a greater purpose.
