November 25 DonateOctober 16 Awesome Fellowship on Pender IslandThis weekend has just been awesome!! We had a Men's Bible Camp at the "Hope Bay Bible Camp" on Pender Island. [http://cssm.ca/hopebay/]
The people who run the camp really are welcoming, it was the first time
that they really opened during the fall/winter and its something they
are wanting to do more of. We took I think 14 guys from the A.R.C from Downtown Victoria, This is a rough place, A.R.C stands for Addictions Recovery Centre so the people there are looking for either a better life or a bed for the night and the group we took really came in contact with the Holy Spirit, this was the message for the weekend, understanding the Holy Spirit, what it is? Why you need to let it into your heart, a really well delivered message that caused people to open thier hearts to and let the Holy Spirit in and we also had a baptism in the ocean, the cold cold ocean. I was one of those baptised and I was givien a ToDo list of things I need to work on by the Holy Spirit. Just this morning on the bus I was thinking allot about the weekend and listening to Jar's of Clay and I was told "You, learn the guitar" so this is another thing to add to my todo list. I also have to pray and meditate alot on what my next step it but I also had some great fellowship time with people at camp, Shannon and I have some things in our past that are in common and he shared some of his experiences and wisdom with me and I want to thank everyone there for the work they allowed the Holy Spirit to do through them this weekend. I have some digital photographs that I will be posting later. Please also note that if your church is looking for a Bible Camp retreat please concider Hope Bay Bible Camp on Pender Island, I believe the rate is $35 dollars a person and they have great facilities and the island has some excellent activities also. # posted by Robert Turner : 10/16/2006 08:28:00 AM 0 comments links to this post October 11 "What is my next move?"I keep asking myself, My God and my guides "What is my next move?", Its a question that has lingered for a while now. Whats the next career choice? Should I concider more of the same as what I am doing, the answer I think is no, I find helpdesk work fulfilling to a point, getting someone's computer connected to the internet or getting the website for the company hosted all fulfilling to a point, you get thanks but then your on to the next frustrated, upset, confused or downright mad customer and the cycle starts again. When I started here I was told about a previous Techie who got to the point where he shouted at customers, I never thought I would get to that point but everyday there is someone I want to shout at and thats not helping me in my home life, On Monday my wife Michelle who I love dearly bore the brunt of my moodswings so I ask the question again in relation to my career. "What is my next move?" How can I relieve the stress at home? I think taking care of my happiness would be a good start, sounds a little selfish at first but If I do things to improve my attitudes then I am better equipt to help those around me, lately I have days I just what to stay in bed and that helps no one. A job that allows me to also be at home a little more and does not leave me so drained would be a start, its time to renevergise myself, Im going to Mens Bible Camp this weekend and I am hoping that will lift my spiritual self and give me the determination I need to make some decisions. Ive always believed if you dont like the situation your in then take steps to change it but I am not acting on this belief enough to move forward. Its driving me crazy. I also feel I want to contribute more, to society, to my home life, to my family, to my education, to my character, every day I dont do at least one of these is a day lost and that makes me sad. I have some irons in the fire but the fire grows cold, I need to throw some fuel on the fire and grow, push my boundaries. On a lighter note, we are decorating our house to celebrate Halloween: ![]() This is a cinema display of Monster House, the door and the windows flicker lights and there is a creaky door sound effect. V Cool, my resourceful wife scored it from the Cinema April 12 CBC Radio 3 Podcast - A life saverI was getting so distant from the music scene and CBC Radio 3 brought me back after I was looking for some music to play at work, Thank you CBC Radio 3, I even take the MP3 podcast with me on my commute.
I now concider to myself to have better social standing :) November 09 LethergyIm really suffering from tiredness today, I think I need a new matress, its just nasty sleeping on what we have at the moment, it has indents where we lay on the bed, really think the springs have well and truly sprung. October 26 WeirdnessThings and people are weird, human nature is strange, life can really be taxing but im beveloping an attitude of "just go with it" which seems to be the meaning of the word and apologies for my spelling of "Manyana" in Mexico.
Take the bus trip into work this morning, such is the nature of a human female to find a mate this person on the bus was constantly grooming herself, playing with her hair, making eye contact and she probably didnt realise she was doing it.
On a different subject, I have found some avatars I want to keep online for use in MSN and other messenger type programs as well as forums so Ill add them into this posting below:
