Well on that happy note I must go to bed. I’ve got tradies arriving at the crack of dawn – and no, not in a good way, guys! 😉 hehe Can’t wait to hear more about this as it unfolds though, Shan. Pleasant dreams to you both. 🙂

What shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, freely give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:31-39)


God’s hand is on your life in an awesome way! And this is only the beginning of all the good things God’s got laid up in store for you.

OK. So the past 3 days has been an absolute nightmare.


I have made plans to come to Sydney tomorrow… because if everything goes as planned, This facade will have a giant rip in it in a few short hours… and I am still planning for Mom to react the worst way possible…


Any thoughts/prayers would be appreciated…

Shan,

I am SO pleased for you. Here I was yesterday thinking ‘he isn’t going to last 72 days’- and now it’s all happened. With Rivers here at the God-appointed moment. I’ve read your older posts Rivers when I first came on here and found them very encouraging. When I was in Tokyo in January I had such a brief visit that I didn’t contact you- but I would like to one of these days.


So, now for telling everyone else?? Some of these people may not be as positive as your Mum- they don’t love you as much, or in the same way.


You might want to read Chris’ posts:

he has some good ideas about coming out to friends- and reflects on that experience.

Ian… I honestly thought I could… Even though you asked numerous times if I was sure… heheheh…


Im in Lithgow at the moment… Waiting for the train to Central 😀


I honestly don’t plan on telling too many people, because simply I don’t feel I need to. I am the same person around them when they don’t know as if they did. It feels like I am not repressing myself to them. I mean, I have come out to a few close friends but only necessary people.


However, I am not planning on intentionally keeping this a secret. I just don’t think I need to compose a press statement on the issue heheheh 😛
