Back in SA

Its been a damn long time since I last posted here...Oh well...I was posted to CJC.....But after a general appeal...I got back to SA. Really lucky to be able to go back tho.

So many things have happened. The lastest is that the Pope has passed away. I dunno...but I kinda feel lost...a sense of confusion along with sadness and a sense of closure. Perhaps, now the Pope has found peace. So God bless him...Amen.

Spirit Wings


Some birds live in cages, they never learn to fly
And like those birds I never found my wings
But Lord your love release me, so I could see the sky
and now my heart rejoices as I sing


Chorus:
Spirit Wings, you lift me over all the earth bound things
And like a bird my heart is flying free
I'm soaring on the song your Spirit brings
Oh Lord of all
You let me see
A vision of
Your Majesty
You lift me up
And carry me on your Spirit wings


When I'm feeling lonely, I just look to you
And soon my heart is soaring high above
Everything seems clearer, from your point of view
Lifted up on Spirit wings of love

Settling down.

Well, I haven't written in here too often. haha busy with my other blog..the flying log one. But hey, I'm not one to really write about my personal life into blogs anyway. haha but i'll try. The not-so-personal stuff anywayz.

SA has been fine...Can't say I like the lessons tho except for Econs and GP. These are the only lessons i enjoy. I'm beginning to like my class now haha. Wasn't so sure abt it in the beginning but yup i can get along with most of the ppl in there now. Now I'm in ODAC as my CCA. Yeah i tink i like it in there. Real easy to make frens. And I've become sth like a mentor to those budding YFC pilots lolz... Mind you i ain't even soloed yet. But i will soon...very soon.

Not even 1 mth in SA yet and I'm a victim of the rumour mill liaoz...just because i commented that one girlwas pretty and...vooosh...kena ribbed by Jeff, Joyce,etc... Oh well, wad to do?...Just take it, Just take it...entertainment for Jeff...hmm next time i see him looking at any girl it'll be my turn Muahahaha.....

Flying has been great too. I can't wait to solo. Just maybe a few more hours. Each lesson gets more challenging and yeah I've been praying more for my flight safety too. Its great to be in the air tho...no matter the challenge. There's a quote "The worst day of flying still beats the best day of real work." How true.... Still, I made my 1st unassisted landing last flight. It was quite a good landing as my intructor was quite happy with it. hehe...Must keep it up and make it consistent. Then can solo.

I'm very happy with life thus far. It feels good to be alive. God saved me from a near mid-air, given me the chance to be in SAJC...great friends, loving and supportive family, flying. It feels great to be 17 too. so many presents this year. hahaha...I'm one lucky toot ..Yeah Life is good. I really have God to thank for all these. so Thank you Lord...and plz help me grease (do well) in the rest of my landings so i can solo ASAP. :)

So here's a prayer or a small poem i found again.
Really meaningful.

Heavens Grocery Store

As I was walking down life's
highway many years ago
I came upon a sign that read
Heavens Grocery Store.

When I got a little closer
the doors swung open wide
And when I came to myself
I was standing inside.

I saw a host of angels.
They were standing everywhere
One handed me a basket and said
"My child shop with care."

Everything a human needed
was in that grocery store
And what you could not carry
you could come back for more.

First I got some Patience.
Love was in that same row.
Further down was Understanding,
you need that everywhere you go.

I got a box or two of Wisdom
and Faith a bag or two.
And Charity of course
I would need some of that too.

I couldn't miss the Holy Ghost
It was all over the place.
And then some Strength and Courage
to help me run this race.

My basket was getting full but
I remembered I needed Grace,
And then I chose Salvation for
Salvation was for free
I tried to get enough of that
to do for you and me.

Then I started to the counter
to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything
to do the Masters will.

As I went up the aisle I saw
Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside
I would run into sin.

Peace and Joy were plentiful,
the last things on the shelf.
Song and Praise were hanging near
so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the angel "Now how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said" Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I asked "Really now, How much do I owe?"
"My child " he said, "God paid your bill a long long time ago."
