About Me

Welcome to my Blog World.

I actually do have a real life outside of here but this is my release valve where I can regurgitate my thoughts, hopefully without payback, LOL.

Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Rebecca, I am a 32 year old single woman with an eleven year old daughter. I have never been married, although I lived with someone when I was younger. I work fulltime and then some at a Chauffeur company here in Adelaide, South Australia. I love my job, no two days are ever the same. I have my daughter every weekend and I am a part of a wonderful fellowship for single and single again people over thirty, called ThirtySomething. I worship AT Paradise Community Church and I have a great life, overall (there are many times the details dont look so great but the long range forcast is good). I am joyful for the life I have been blessed with, but more importantly for the rose coloured glasses I wear that can change my perspective.

I rent a house that I share with two housemates, both single girls younger than me. There is Rachel whos been here for four months (I love her to bits, she is a GREAT housemate), then there is the new Rebecca who is a lovely girl, but I am still getting used to her, praying for patient endurance.

The bigggest struggle I have in my life is the "Divine Discontentment". I know that God has more in store for me than the life I live now, not in material possessions or favour among man but ... I cant even put my finger on it. I am scoring under par and I know the thing I need to do to lift my game and thats to know my Creator better, to dwell in His word. The struggle I have is I love to read, but I avoid my bible. I pick it up, I put it down again and meanwhile I know that the Word of God getting into my spirit is the ONE thing that will catapult the work of God in my life. I know its more than a lack of discipline, is it rebellion, is it distrust, I dont know but that is my number one struggle.

Yet, I am born to overcome, I can read, I can focus, I am a believer in the Work of God and this is an area I will overcome!

Oops, and I forgot to mention that I am a born again Christian, saved by the Lord's grace and His mercy. I am a sinner in the natural but I am forgiven, His mercy knows no bounds. What an amazing Lord.
