Going

The realisation of leaving only starts to sink in when you say bye to people that you will not see again... for 9 months... or maybe till that day :) Leaving is a good things... in that it gives you a new perspective on life and all that stuff...

But for me this has been coming a while now... I think I first heard about Bethel about 2 years ago (?), when the whole Lakeland revival things happened... When I heard about it I was like: "I need to go there, somewhere in my lifetime". As time went by, I only heard good things about the school (at Bethel), and how even the "ordinary" Christians became hectic :)

What convinced me to go, was the fact that the church has been operating in the supernatural for a LONG time, and there has not been any major problems... even through the most uncertain times. Another thing is that all the leaders at our church (HP Gtown) fully endorses the teaching of Bethel, and encourages people to buy their books, and listen to their sermons. Nothing that I have heard form Bethel has been questionable.

So that all sorted, I heard that Jordan & Héloïse were going this year, so I thought... why not go this year, and we can all do it together :) well... funny thing is that things did not work out that way... but I am still going. God knows best... so I trust all things will work out for the best :)

I also "met" a few people from SA that's off to Bethel, either 1st or 2nd year - So life will not be a complete culture shock over there... and there are even Afrikaans speaking guys going :) Yeah for the mother tongue :)

So, everything looks set and ready... driving up 'home' to Sasolburg (Northern Free State) on Monday morning. Flight is on the 26th of Aug (Thursday).

I hope that I am not forgetting anything... but it looks like my car will be half as loaded as it was when i came to G-town :) Only taking clothes, and stuff i use everyday... (minus PC)

Yeah for new things :)
