The pic shows the front stage as we were up in the tiered seats with a capacity of well over 1000 people seated.
On the last evening, the speaker was Ps Bobby Houston wife of Ps Brian Houston senior pastors of "Hillsongs" church in Sydney with churches scattered all over Australia, English and in Asia.
Over the years, I've watched this church flourish in the 1990s with beautiful Christian music, have listened to Ps Brian at different venues in Auckland when I've been able to catch him or on TV and am encouraged that as one of the first megachurches in Australasia that they haven't lost their vision and are still gunning for God.
Ps Bobby's message was encouraging as it reminded me of what I've been through and where I am now in my life's journey. She talked about sayings or "Memes" that have encouraged her on "Pinterest" and one of them was:
1. Dream
2. Make a start
3. Work hard
4. Repeat
And this would have to be one that I work on these days with each book. She also spoke about praying with the line "Grace, grace" in prayer in that it activates a power higher than when we are able to speak at times, especially when people are going through insurmountable issues or problems that leave us speechless. It was such an encouragement and a motivation to keep running the race towards the goal, no matter what...
