G'Day Mates!

I must say I am rather enjoying myself here! On Saturday we started the day off with having breakfast at Dome which has absolutely amazing coffee! Afterwards we took off to Fremantle to do some shopping where I purchase souvenirs and some awesome merch. We got to walk through the market streets and came upon a hilarious entertainer on a unicycle juggling torches! Yesterday I had the opportunity of worshipping with the believers here. I was so greatly blessed by this experience:) Calvary Chapel is so simple and I enjoyed meeting people who I have the greatest thing in common with. It's interesting to see that the service can be organized differently yet the same Spirit reigns in us! After church we went to Victoria Park where we had lunch. Then we drove to the Rockingham foreshore where I had Ferrero Roche ice cream!! I am still having a great deal of trouble recovering from the jet lag so I'm usually passing out by 6, although jet lag does have it's benefits: such as being able to wake up really early! Today I went on a really nice long walk where I was able to explore the neighborhood. We had driven by a park with a fountain earlier so I made the goal of finding it on foot. It took me a while because I had no idea where it was, afterward as I was meandering the streets I stumbled upon the most amazing walking trail! I cannot express my amazement enough at the nature that surrounds me! Pictures cannot capture the true beauty of this place!

Playlist

Writing research papers is no easy task. It requires lots of snacks, breaks, and temporary moments of sheer insanity- the most important thing though?- An awesome playlist.  Lately I have been favoring RATATAT.  Simply because I work best under pressure and their music makes me feel anxious and gives me a good boost of adrenaline. I know that's not healthy in the long run- but for writing extensive essays, it will do.  Click Here for what I've been listening to endlessly for about 3 days now

Doubt

This week I have been reflecting on where I am in my life and my level of contentment and confidence in what I am doing. I am in a CS Lewis book club where we are reading Screwtape Letters and it has caused me to be more aware of which thoughts the devil puts into my head and how hard he works to tear me down. I have exactly the life that I pictured I would and the life that I wanted and planned for. Along the way I had a lot of hardships, but ultimately God still gave me what I wanted. What is baffling for me is that the devil can give me so much doubt and discontentment even in situations that I know are right for my life. I realized that there won't be a moment in my life where I will be perfectly content and be absolutely happy about every aspect in my life- not without a fight at least. Reading this book has showed me how actively I have to fight every day to stay alert and listen to the voice of God and tell myself truth instead of listening to the lies that the devil tries ...
