Brisbane’s first Mac store opens tomorrow morning at 9:00am .. word is the first 1000 people in the door get a free mac store t-shirt. I’ll be avoiding the crowds and checking it out on Monday morning.

Its kinda funny how often I am reminded that maintaining a day to day faith walk is a constant battle. Theres all this stuff going on back in Canada right now that really makes me just wanna jump on a plane tonight and go home for a few weeks. But more then that I really really need to get back to church .. havent been in a few weeks because of this flu which I am finally over.
My job still sucks but it is never the less a job and a fairly easy one at that .. it really is time to move on but that like everything else will happen in Gods timing and not mine. Gods funny like that .. you cant give your life to God and then every once in a while take the wheel back when you don’t like how things are going. Those are in fact the times when we need to trust God even more. There’s that word .. “trust” Its something God has been schooling me in ever since I stepped foot in Australia 8 years ago. But it really is all good.
If theres one thing I’ve learned lately .. its that it is vital to be in fellowship with solid Christians .. I am truely blessed to have a few really awesome friends in my life who really care about me. Anyway .. the moral of the story is .. never go to war without the right friends. Yes it sounds dark .. but life really is warfare .. a series of battles and victories and those weird inbetween moments between the battles and victories .. Yah ever get the feeling someones trying to take you out .. I do .. all the time .. Its a good thing I know who my God is.
Peace out for now.. and my apologies for this “random” blog being so ultra serious .. its just the way it came out .. lol.
For those of you who do not know me I am a bit of a coffee nut .. and / or coffee snob. I rarely drink coffee from chains unless I know whos making the coffee. Anyway .. there’s a new cafe on Queen and Wharf street here in Brisbane called “Cremosa Espresso Bar” It is without a doubt the best Italian coffee in Brisbane .. strong and smooth at the same time.. its just amazing coffee. So go there and check it out when your in the city. – Pete
