We're off to New Zealand, tomorrow, and it's actually starting to feel pretty real. The one thing that I'm really glad to have finished doing is getting rid of all our stuff. Between us Jen and I have accumulated a fairly large collection of excess posessions and it's taken literally weeks to get rid of it all. Especially all the random stuff that any house just seems to accumulate on every horizontal surface.

Flights are booked, we've both got visas and I'm enrolled on a commercial skydiving course that starts next January. This is a course that I've thought about doing for about 4 years, since I was last in NZ learning to skydive. I never thought it was ever really going to be possible, but here we are sold up and shipping out!

The amount of stuff God has done for me in the past two and a half years since I came to known him is incredible. I feel disproportionally blessed. He has given me everything I ever really wanted and more! I've only just started to know God and yet he blesses me incredibly. When I first came to know him I felt like I was being trapped, that I would be under some kind of obligation, but all he has done is set me free.
