Christmas Time!
It’s been a very long and difficult week. Things have been difficult at the church, there has been the usual run-up-to Christmas chaos and amidst all that I got a tummy bug. Not the best week I’ve ever had! There has been a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel today - finally! 
However, one thing that did make me giggle was at my dance class christmas party… Attached to the school there is a Gospel Choir. Who are seriously rubbish!! But they sang for us at the party. I presume they were trying to say ‘I’ve got joy in my heart’. Instead they sang for about 5mins about the joy in their hat! I want one of those hats!!
I commented to my friends that it’s funny how Gospel music is so popular in France when it clearly proclaims truths about Jesus and his love for us. I said that if my friends from church offered to sing you a song like that it French, you would claim that we are prostlytising and stop us in our tracks. The girl’s response was, ‘When the words are in English we don’t relise that they are influencing our spirit.’ Make of that what you will!
I’m off home tomorrow. I’m not looking forward to getting the metro in the middle of the morning commute with my suitcase. I am looking forward to spending time with my family. Speaking English. Eating Roses and mince pies. Celebrating the complete mirical of God becoming one of us.
(Can I add: I know my spelling is rubbish. 
I see that words are spelt wrong, but I don’t know how to put them right. There is no spell check on this blog. To be honest I can’t be bothered to copy and paste into Word. You understand what I’m saying right?)
