Our own little world

So lately I think I've been a bit lost in my 'own little world'. What I mean is the things that we surround ourselves with on a daily basis. The things that we fill our lives with. Mine has been catching up with friends and watching a lot of TV and movies. Oh and of course looking for work. We surround ourselves with so many things that sometimes we don't look beyond. We don't look at the big picture. I need to admit that I haven't been looking at God's big picture lately. I don't feel like I've been filling my life with Him and His plans. It's hard to look at His picture when we're so wrapped up in our own, when we're focused on us.

So how do we get out of this little world that we've created for ourselves? We focus on God. We look at Him and to Him and focus our hearts and minds on Him again. It's not an easy thing to do, but there is so much about Him to focus on that we could spend our whole lives learning about Him and never fully knowing. I think it's time I got back into it. How about you?

Tram or Bike

This is a question that I keep asking myself lately. I bought a bike before Christmas, but haven't used it very much. There's pluses and minuses for each, which I go through every time I think about this decision. I've made up the list below to help you think through what goes on in my mind.

 

So, at the moment I usually end up taking the tram. Mainly because it's cold outside (yes I know that riding will warm me up), and becuase it's exercise. Hopefully I'll ride more if the weather ever improves. How do you get around?

Oh and one more thing... I miss my car!
