I love this verse from Psalm 16:6 (NIV) The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.
As I sit in my room this morning and watch the sun reflecting off the snow-covered Southern Alps, I realise how blessed I am. I have a home to live in, food to eat and a car to drive. I'm surrounded by a family that loves me and good friends are always on hand to go out for coffee and some fun.
On July 16th, it will be exactly 3 1/2 years since we left South Africa. That was undoubtedly one of the worst days of my entire life ... but as I look back on all the sacrifices we made, I see that God has given us immeasurably more in exchange.
Life is a journey and if we allow God to navigate our way, the rewards will be so much greater than if we choose our own paths.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLX3EaTCZcoXBK-u3qyytIOxs0sBIkduhPNJBv2jtSrgnS_1CIbHyHa4IH93SIYSHNI8kMAfmUTOI7-jtIAwYJV-6QRGNbSa_FZvRAEyEk1rEe38WkOJ1ZXStLflSMDdmr2ifLBq7K6LA/s320/Picture+023.jpg)
