hello!
first i must appologies for not replying to emails, i didn't go online for a while and then the internet at the hostel decided to misbehave. (am in an internet cafe at the moment) will get though them all in time, though don't expect a reply very quikly!
in the mean time i love you all very very much, though not nearly so much as God who loves with a buring pashion that will never ever fade or go away or leave you alone. he's got you in his sights and is knocking at your door patienly waiting to be let in. he will never break down the door, but he will stand and knock all your life until you answer and let him in. he loves you, and wants to transform you life in ways you could never have dreamed about. he has huge plans for you. you are his child and he thinks the world of you. he wants you to be with him, so much so that he sent his only son to die a tortuous death so that you could be free. free from sin, free from earthly desires, free from caring what other people think of you, free from worrying about what will happen next, free from being hurt by empty words people say, free from doubt and uncertanty, free from feeling lost and alone. for with God you will never ever be alone. not ever. however far you go he will be there with you. standing by you side telling you every day just how much he loves you.

job hunting going well. am just waiting for this hotel to get my references from referees then i can work! (hopefully) if not there's other places i can go. in the mean time me and two others (another jenny who's from england moved here for a bit with her parents and guilium from belgium who in our dorm)  have caused havoc with the austrailian postal system as we box and label hundreds of tourist magazines at the post office.

life at the hostle is good! we're having fish and chips for tea toninte as we forgot to defrost the mince for tea. (we were going to have f and chips tomorrow)
last week for our meal out we went to an all you can eat chiniea buffe. wow, yum, very full. we also think we saw a pe teacher from the royal high out the window.

am very much looking forward to going home and christmas (in particular mums roast dinner) but also at the moment i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. is great living on own and planning food and finding work. have also, due to phone waiting, have read lots. has anyone read Gopd's Smuggler? is not then i highly recomend it. i've just read the other brother adrew book called light force. its all about the conflict in the middle east and the ministry he performed there. also recomend. if nothing else both are great reads.

bye for now!

all of God's wonderful, exciting, encoraging, amazing, powerful, fatherly love,

jen
