family and friends

well it has been a little while since i last posted. i have been wanting to do this post for a while, but havent had a cable to put my pics onto the computer. i have promised tigz that this post will be up by the time she gets to me tonight, so thought i better get on with it now.
bible reading is going really well at the moment, and i am learning so much, i hope that i am continuing to grow in the lord and through his word i may become more and more like my maker in heaven.
I have just started to read a really helpful new book by C.J. Mahaney called humility, true greatness. i havent got that far into it yet, but what i have read so far has been good at showing me how much God HATES pride. And how pride is one of the biggest things. It has made me stop and think about things that i do. the times that i congratulate myself and self glorify myself rather then thanking God and giving him all the glory as i should. I look forward to reading the rest of this book, and learning more about my sinful nature.
i want to introduce you to some of my friends and family nowi want to thank them so much for all they have ever done for me.
i want to start with my new found friend... my mum julie. Though we have not got on for the last 19 years of my life very well, thanks to my best friend and my creator i now have a beautiful friendship with her!!! :D so this is my mum:
next is my dad, again we have never got on, but our relationship is growing and blossoming and i hope that one day we may be inseperable. here is my dad, Gordon:












And lastly in my family is my wonderful brother. who i love to pieces and again hope that one day we will have a great relationship with each other. this is my brother Simon:
