We're Off!!!!

_
People we are off to be part of what God is doing in Florida.
 WOW!! it has been amazing hearing about this mighty move of God. It has stirred Bethany and I so much that we are driving 16 hours to be part of it.
We are soooooooooooooooooo excited!!!
We are taking the children aswell because it is so important for kids to be in that atmosphere too.
I will give you a praise report when I get back.
I have studied about revivals ever since I was 12 and I did a project on the Welsh Revival. My heart bursts with a desire to see God move more and more. We have realised that we cannot miss this opportunity.
Keep an eye out on God TV to see if you can see me. hee hee. I might wear a Welsh Rugby shirt. FIRE!!!

England v Germany...

This is a little something that my friend Nathan forwarded to me, enjoy:
______

"The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the
official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other
possibility. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that
English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in
plan that would become known as 'Euro-English'. In the first year, 's' will replace
the soft 'c'. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard
'c' will be dropped in favour of 'k'. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards
kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year
when the troublesome 'ph' will be replaced with 'f'. This will make words like
fotograf 20% shorter. In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be
expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments
will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to
akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent 'e' in the
languag is disgrasful and it should go away. By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv
to steps such as replasing 'th' with 'z' and 'w' with 'v'. During ze fifz yer, ze
unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords kontaining 'ou' and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil
hav a reil sensi bl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun
vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.
If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl"

Two Down...

About 2 weeks ago Nathan fell getting out of the bath and cut his ear so bad that it actually cut through and cut his head. He had to have 7 stitches.
TODAY, little Anna is running around and decides to go up stairs upon which she slipped and kloncked her head on the window sil and sustained this lovely cut to the head. Off to ER again.
We thank God that she didn't have to be stitched up so they glued her instead.
She's now my little Pritt Stick.

Shaking...

At 4:36am this morning there was an earthquake measuring 5.2!! that was enough to shake our bed like a meister and to do some damage to some of the bridges in St Louis (loose mortar falling off thats all).
The last time that there had been a quake this strong was back in the 60's. 
We had experienced a minor tremor in Wales a few years back but this one was a lot stronger and it lasted for about 20 seconds. The Holy Spirit told me three weeks, or so, ago that we would have an earthquake in St Louis. I dismissed it thinking that I had eaten some bad pizza. Now I  know that it was actually God. Sweet!!
One of my favourite soundtrack melodies composed by the great John Williams is that to the 70's film 'Earthquake' and so I have added this sample of it - WHAT A MELODY -

Oh The Heavens Opened...

It's out, It's Wild and there will be a copy floating over the Atlantic for me.
YES, the 'Official' (sounds great when the Welsh say it) DVD of this years win at the Grand Slam is now available.
My good friend Nathan is shipping a copy for me over the pond.
See, I couldn't watch all the games as I didn't have access to them. The last two I watched in a pub at a charge. But now I get to see us stuff the English in Digital quality. LOVING THAT!!!
If you want to know what Welsh Pride looks like then get a copy from here

Welsh Wit...

Here a few Welsh Rugby jokes. For those international viewers let me explain a little bit before you read these jokes. The first one is a classic WALES/ENGLAND joke. There has always been a bit of a 'Love/Hate' relationship between Wales and England, in other words we Hate them and they Love themselves. hee hee. The last joke is an tribute to the mighty Jonah Lomu. Now enjoy these jokes. Some you may not get them but my rugby friends will.
_____
RUGBY HEAVEN:
During a Wales v England match at the Millennium Stadium a lightning storm hit Cardiff and a bolt was conducted through the towers to the touch line. In a tragic accident both coaches - Mike Ruddock and Sir Clive Woodward - were killed. They were taken straight to heaven where they were warmly greeted by the Almighty. After a while, Clive was taken to his new accommodation. He was pleased to find a lovely English country-style cottage with statues outside in the form of English rugby greats. As a constant background he could hear the sweet voices of angels singing "Jerusalem" and "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." Clive was delighted until he suddenly heard some even more beautiful singing coming from the top of the hill. He listened closer and could hear "Bread of Heaven" followed by "Land of My Fathers." Clive looked up the hill to see a great palace with statues outside of Barry John, Gareth Edwards and JPR Williams. A party was taking place in the garden with Brains SA flowing freely as the crowd watched Scott Gibbs scoring his try at Wembley against England in 1999. Clive went to the Lord and said: "Look, I don't want to appear ungrateful - my cottage is great, but why does Mike get the huge mansion?" God broke into a laugh as he replied: "Clive, you've got it all wrong! That's
 not Mike's place - it's mine!"
LIFE AND DEATH:
A Welsh fan was watching a Six Nations game against Ireland in Dublin. In the packed stadium, there was only one empty seat - right next to him. "Who does that seat belong to?" asked Dai from the row behind. "I got the ticket for my wife," replied the fan "But why isn't she here?" "I'm afraid she died in an accident." "So you're keeping the seat vacant as a mark of respect," said Dai. "No," said the fan, "I offered it to all of my friends." "So why didn't they take it," asked a puzzled Dai. "They've all gone to the funeral."
ALL BLACK:
The All Blacks were playing England, and after the half-time whistle blew they found themselves ahead 50-0, Jonah Lomu getting eight tries. The rest of the team decided to head for the pub instead of playing the second half, leaving Jonah to go out on his own. "No worries," Jonah told them, "I'll join you later and tell you what happened." After the game Jonah headed for the pub where he told his team mates the final score - 95-3. "What!!!!," said a furious Michael Jones. "How did you let them get three points??!" Jonah replied apologetically: "I was sent off with 20 minutes to go."
