"Only"
I remember when I first heard of the book "For Women Only"
The books about opening women’s eyes to what the men in their life are really thinking and feeling
I was like Whhaaaat!! What's in that book, let me have a peak!
But instead I was led to read "For Men Only" by Shaunti & Jeff Feldhahn
I learnt so much from that one little book :)
So now they there's two more books !!
For Young Women Only

& For Young Men Only
http://www.foryoungmenonly.com/BooksStudies/ForYoungMenOnly/tabid/141/Default.aspx
I belive it will be helpful if your a Mum, Dad, Youth Leader or struggling in a relationship. This will go a long way, in developing your relationships with others and understanding the opposite sex.
I can imagine fathers having daughters who are in courtships & having no clue or understanding of their daughters.. (might drive them insane?) =P
Enjoy

It is well with my soul
Horatio Spafford
One day out of the blue there was a fire, and Horatio lost his Son . .
He Lost everything he worked for, this life savings, his real estate and it was too much for him.
So he decided, "You know what, I need to get away from here, my family needs a break"
and so they decided to go on a vacation.
So Horatio load up his four daughters and his wife on ferry and he was planning to go with them.
But on that day he wasn't able to go. So he sent them on ahead
And as this ferry is out on the water it has a wreck and it goes down in 12 minutes.
And all four of Horatio's daughters are killed.
Horatio is devastated, and he hops on a boat and goes out to where the wreck happened.
As he sat on the water, the exact place where his daughters died, he wrote a poem.
And this is what the poem said
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
(Google the rest)
And that's a story of faith.
To loose your entire family and say "It is well with my soul".
If that was your life how would you respond?
Would you say "Hey God, it is well with my soul"
or would you walk away
and say "God your not all your cracked up to be"
and walk away from Him

Tree Man
Hey everyone, Seb here :)
Just like to share a few thoughts on something that happened recently.
I came across a video on YouTube today as I was procrastinating work, and I have to admit it made a rather large impression on me. Video is below:
Some of you may have seen this before. I can't say that I'm fully convinced of the validility of this report, but after browsing around for a bit more on the internet and looking at this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermodysplasia_verruciformis
I'm a leaning towards thinking it's genuine. Regardless, it still made me think about my own situation.
I think this ties in nicely with the post that Dot did a few weeks ago. There's just so many things that we take for granted, so many things that we ought to realise that other people don't even know exists. God's blessed us with all these gifts and we need to take these gifts with both hands, go out into the world and tell everyone about him.
So what happens for people like Treeman in the video? Why are we so blessed when other people haven't even heard of the good news? I'll be frank and say I don't have the answers to these questions, but I know one thing that we can do is pray. Pray for people like Dede, pray for people who haven't ever heard of Jesus, and pray that we might have the wisdom to realise what we have and do everything that's in us to help further Big Daddy's kingdom.
