Snowy Scotland...

So, I'm at home in Aberdeen, fun fun fun... it finally slowed today. We've been waiting! It's the first non-white Christmas I can remember! How crazy is that?
Erm... Last night spent 11hours straight watching a Korean TV Series... subsequently didn't sleep at all last night, since i finished watching them at 7am... so I spent lots of time with God... and it was totally fascinating.
God is SO, SO fascinating. I love Him so much!
Someone spoke at the church I go to up here on Sunday morning based on crackers (as in, Christmas Crackers). The thing that really stuck in my mind is that the cracker has to break, it has to snap, in order to obtain the gift inside. It's the same with Jesus. He had to break, to snap, in order for me to be able to have the relationship with God that I have, for me to be able to have eternal life. And so with me, I have to daily hand a broken heart to Jesus, be totally vulnerable to His sculpting (not really a worry since He's the best sculptor in the world!) and mending. And daily, He puts my heart back together.

Jesus take this heart of mine
Lord put these pieces together once more
I've tried to put it together myself
But I just can't do it on my own
Jesus melt this heart of mine
Make my heart soft again
Jesus will You mould this heart
Into the jar You want to make

Jesus is amazing. Everyday I hand Him a broken heart, everyday I fall deeper in love with Him.
