Well, we thought it might be time to repeat our little 'note of explanation':. We DO know how to spell Sydney (see! Of course the capital is Canberra, but the good thing about Sydney is that everybody in the world knows it (which we're afraid cannot be said of Canberra;-). Anyway, we're glad to be here.

Eugene Peterson rarely fails to get at least a smile from me as I'm reading his books. not because of any witty jokes, but because of his ability to accurately observe things that I far too often have to recognize as true in my own life. Being committed to raising the standard of living". What an apt and timely description of the dream of Western society, myself far too much included! Bigger, better, faster, more.

Steph and Claudi in Gsidney. Thoughts along the way. And we were overwhelmed by the generosity and the help we have received from so many different people and in many different ways. On Friday, 23.11., Klaus (Claudi's Dad) arrived - so we've spent lots of time with him during the last two weeks, showing him around, 'allowing' him to help us move and fix things in our new flat (isn't it GREAT to have a Dad who can fix things!

Steph and Claudi in Gsidney. Thoughts along the way. It was occasions like birthdays or Christmas when we felt most strongly how far away from family we were - so it was very special to have a family-birthday-celebration again - first one in 3 years! As a nice little bonus we were given a beautiful Austrian summer day, so we could sit outdoors and feel all holiday-y for a few hours! Stephan's first birthday "back home". Cousins (2 of Steph's nieces). We even had our very own little fireworks.

When our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ, said 'Repent,' He called for the entire life of believers to be one of repentance. But it is going on.

Steph & Claudi in Gsidney: Ever been prayed for by your doctor?
http://gsi-dney.blogspot.com/2008/09/ever-been-prayed-for-by-your-doctor.html
Steph and Claudi in Gsidney. Thoughts along the way. Ever been prayed for by your doctor? I felt heaps encouraged by God and the way he uses the body of believers to build each other up. It made me think about the many ways in which I often fail to be this blessing to others, because I don't think to pray - or maybe because I don't value prayer for what it really is. or because I'm not brave enough to offer to pray for someone I don't know very well. Thank God for 'royal praying doctors' ;).

Praise the Lord, we once more got through exams without being sick, without being too stressed. well. at least we're noticing some improvement - and every Stuvac (=prep time) convinces us more of the value that lies in intensive time spent in the word - it makes such a difference to our relationship with God, it's unbelievable!
