Saturday morning tradition is that everyone gathers to do some aerobics before outdoors brunch at 11. Today everyone pulled out all the stops and arrived in some of the most RIDICULOUS but glorious outfits! I wasn’t feeling too great, so I stood by and took pictures... :o)

Today the studio was filled with the sounds of amazing music and worship... there was a rehearsal going on for an upcoming recording of a CD. A guy called David is going to be recording an album, and a few people from the farm family are playing with him. So after brunch, we gathered around them all, and prayed for them. Praying on the farm almost always turns into sung prayer over people, which is just sooooo beautiful. I wish I could properly record one of these times of spontaneous singing – it would rock your world! We ended the time by shouting over them, “YES, God is GOOD!” over and over. It was such a beautiful moment. By this stage though, I was feeling really revoltingly sick (fluey), so I went and crashed for most of the rest of the day. Was not very happy. Sore throat, pounding head, that awful foggy feeling. Luckily I had some trusty panado and strepsils, so I downed some of each, and collapsed. Woke up feeling much better, but still rather out of it.
In the evening, after dinner, we met out on the back porch (with candles and fairylights) to have cake and ice-cream for Abigail’s birthday. Of course there was some singing too! It was a beautiful evening after a not-so-great day. But this is what I’m learning – life is full of these rhythms, ups, downs, beautiful, not-so-beautiful. It’s all good. It’s all life. It can all be filled with God :o)
