Super hero dress up Birthday party funin the last couple weeks I've had the chance to shoot/film and talk with an acoustic artist i really enjoy named Josh Garrels. It was because i went to that show that i found out a good friend of mine ive met through my travels, David Reasbeck, was living just down the road from me. And coincidently Josh Garrels was staying with him. Small world!
Josh Garrels playing at the La Paloma theater Now this is the most important part of this post. If you're thinking of not reading any further i wish you would kill that little desire and read on.
I think most of you reading know that i've been on the fringes of my faith and a bit disposed to uncertainty of belief. But being back in the sun near family and with new friends, i've found a peace. I think i'm coming out of a long dark time for me. It's been a breaking and healing process over that last couple years. I had to be shown that nothing in this world is comparable or adequate to take the position of Jesus. I had to be shown and taught grace, mercy and love when i felt like a failure and was in dire need of a hand to lift me up. God used my friends in Ohio and others all around the world to share that grace, mercy and love. It's a daunting truth that hindsight is 20/20. I wish i had a glimpse or at least the faith to trust that God was doing something good for me when times got very dark and hard. But now looking back one of the best things that has happened over the last couple years is that my relationship with my family has deepened greatly. I think this is the first time in my life i feel that we're not just living together or near each other but we're living as a family. I think that was a huge building block that had been missing in my life.
Nephew Eli, Sister and Brother in lawAnd as life goes, now that i've gotten comfortable here in San Diego and am enjoying myself a opportunity to return back to Australia is on the table. About a month ago a friend back in Australia who runs a Christian film distribution company called me to catch up and inform me of a possible opportunity to return to oz and work for him editing and developing content. So here's what's happening, Company "X" is pitching a couple t.v. show ideas to other companies around the world. If these ideas get bought/funded that would provide a means and reason to employ me. It's exciting stuff! But as the production business goes nothing is certain.....ever. At least till a check is written. This is where you all come in. I would really appreciate your prayers over the next few weeks. That if this is something i should do that God would be behind it 100%. Pray as compelled.
