Logos Hope

Ok, my Dad will call in like 5 minutes but I'll try to write something about my time on Logos Hope. It was amazing. I love it. Going back was... I can't describe it. I loved it. During this 1 week I felt so awake. Do you know how great it feels not to be tired the whole day? When I'm at home I feel like I'm walking with a veil around my head. It was great to move around, to work, laugh, joke. The team was great. I was worried that after having had such a great time in Feburay I won't like it that much. Wrong, it was even better than in February. The people were great.
Sometimes I walked around on the ship and was amazed about what has been done during the few month I've been gone. It's so exciting to see how things are getting done. The galley is in there. Wow, that was so cool to see. I used to work in there when there were no machines and now the whole thing is in use. It's just so great to be part of something so big. This ship will inpact the nations (well the people on the ship, although the ship is pretty cool itself).
Being on Logos Hope made me (once again) realise how tired I am at home. I do wake up on the weekends, sort of. Well, I guess I'm still pretty lound, but on the inside I'm asleep and that's horrible. It's time for me to get out there once again. When I worked in England, I was alive (by the way, I miss you blackcountry guys, how am ya?) But I also now, that I'm on the right way. This is preparation time.
Ohhhhhhhh Dad is calling.........
Love you guys xxx

Beauty

I wrote this on May 1st, but I felt like I should put it on here. When I wrote it I asked God to speak to me and I tried not to think but to just write down whatever came to my mind:

Beauty brings peace to my heart
The beauty of nature
The beauty of friendship
What never touched my heart
Will break through
To conquer
To stay
Strong like a mountain
You see gracefulness when you look at me
The ocean roars
The demons scream
Because the power of love hurts them
Unity of light and fire
It’s bright and warm
Joyful colours chase away sadness
And we’ll run the race together
And it’s so strong no one can tear it apart
Because it’s the sovereign Lord
Who has put it together
Sparkle in your eyes
It’s the waves you love
It’s the sea I adore watching
The fight of your lifetime
The end of a long road
Leads into a new way
But this time we’ll walk together
The Swiss flag is raised
Patience
Keep on going
Do not falter
Because you’ll only succeed if you try
You can’t go by yourself
It’s not what you expect
But it’s real, true and good
A blessing you can hardly contain
Because God is love
And he keeps his promises
