snow flakes gently falling....

As I look out the window, I see soft snow flakes gently falling, rooftops are white,
​the ground slowing being carpeted with snow..Oh my goodness..it’s cold outside…!! 
Another world to this time last year…!! What a roller coaster ride it has been. Let’s imagine we have just seated ourselves in the roller-coaster, we are strapped in..Instead of it going forwards…it goes backwards…

Looking back…almost exactly one year ago on the 16th January 2017, Peter & I drove to the little village of Grossropperhausen, about 45 minutes drive south from Kassel…There was a Gutshof (a 300 year old traditional German farm property)..Our purpose for going was to meet Rainer & Ilona Waelde…who had recently moved there.  This Gutshof was the place that they had dreamed of, for over 10 years…To  have a Gutshof Akademie, to equip young entrepeneurs,& people from all walks of life,  thru the many diverse Courses & Seminars that they hold each year.  It was also their deep desire to have a Community based on Celtic Christian Tradition, a Guest House, where the Course attendees could stay, where Retreats could be held, a place where people could come & find rest & peace & experience the presence of God…....Rainer & Ilona, in their search for a couple to be the Hospitality Hosts for the Guest House, & also to run the kitchen, had heard of us, thru a mutual friend..We’d already talked several times on the telephone & attempts at Skype…but this would be the first time that we would ‘really meet’ & talk face to face about the possibility of us ‘being that couple’…

​We were excited to meet them, and to hear their vision..and to see if their hearts & our’s would click.. It was a wonderful time of sharing hearts & listening to their vision and they to ours..and when we left…we both agreed ‘lets seek God on this’...A ‘loop’ on the rollercoaster & we are going forward…As most of you know, we are now living here..at the Gutshof, and have been here since the beginning of June…The roller coaster hasn’t stopped…it is still moving…
