Here I am after my first week in Nancy... First thing i forgot to write before... J'AI MON CODE!!!! :o) That was sooo cool! Even though just before to go there Emmanuelle realized her tires were flat so she couldn't come with me so i arrived there late (as obviously i had to get lost) and tired and in a state but just before to start the exam who appeared at the door?? ...Emmanuelle, just to show me she was there for me... So i actually started everything not praying for succes but thanking God for the wonderfull friend that she is! and so there, God calmed me down and helped not to fail again and so there, i managed to get less than 6 mistakes!

Now, Nancy. I really enjoy living overthere, it's fun and i'm having a great time. I'm in a little class with  14 students and interesting subjetcs... and i visited a church: worship was... wasn't worship. It's kind of a traditionnal protestant church and so my first thought was: neve again. BUT what happened next was tht the pastor went to preach and i felt sooo blessed and then people welcomed me in a so nice way that i felt at home... so i think i'm gonna go back to that church. mmm i'm running out of time but anyway i'm having a great time in Nancy and i feel happy!

God is good, all the time, he put his song of praise in this heart of mine.... :o)
I love Jesus!!!!!  myTata n'zambe (Lord God)! today someone phoned me to tell me i could re try my "code" (which is the first part of the drinving licence, which i've failed because of 1 single tiny little mistake)... i'm leaving on the 13th to Nancy and there wasn't supposed to be a date before october but there you are, i've got a great God who hears my prayers (and yours, don't worry) and so the lady phoned me and told me a girl had desisted so i could take her place on the morning of the... 13th of september!!! i mean.. isn't God soooooo great??
... Now i need to succeed! :o)

It seems like so many things have happened these past few days...

When i look back i just can see Gods hand in every situation.

I'm moving to Nancy and have found a great flat and the the owner decreased the price of the rent by 590 to 530€ (charges included) for us, which was soooo an answer of God as we were hesitating between that flat and an other one which was 530€ but uglier.. and we didn't ask the own to do that, it's just... God! :o)

So here i am moving from one town to another and God also provided every piece of furniture we needed; and actually in december I was praying to know where i should be going in september (Biarritz/ Nancy/ Strasbourg/ Spain/ other) and i just had no clue where i should be going. Then i got my answers very naturally in HIS time but very very clearly and I know i'm now doing what God wants me to do, because i have that feeling that i can't really explain but there you are...

And another thing for which i am very grateful to God is the way my grandmother passed away last friday. She died in the arms of my mother - who managed to go to South Africa a few days before - in peaceful way, while my mum was praying for her... like praying her out of this world and into a beautiful new one, with Jesus. Of course i cried and of course i was sad, but to know she is now in the best of the places feels my heart with joy and I'm so thankful to God for that!! And all this makes me want to go and talk about Jesus to people, especially my friends... it just made me realize I would hate to have to face the death of someone knowing I would probably not meet him or she in Heaven...

Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Matthew 28 v 18-20

Thank you Jesus.

Isn't great to have sisters? well I'm thankful for mine anyway.. Noémie made me really laugh this morning, shaking as if she was epileptic or smtg at the sight of a spider... fun! :o) I haven't got much news of Colette but i love her anyway.. And Elise, well we're gonna move in a very cool new flat somewhere in Nancy together.. that's soooo cool! :o) I haven't visited the flat yet but it seems great: there's a lift in the building (or an elevator), as it's on the 5th floor (most building only have stairs), there's probably a nice view, and there's a fridge (yeah yeah yeaaaah!!!!!) and there's a balcony... 60m² with 2 rooms and a sitting-room, not too far from the station, somewhere in the center of town.. nice!  and yesterday i went to a flea market and after lengthy haggling i got 2 really nice bedside tables for 15€... i didn't actually need them but it's a cool thing to have in a flat isn't it? anyway i was happy after that. And before that actually. My morning was really fun. I didn't feel like going to church or getting out of my bed or anything. I could already figure out how the morning was gonna be like, what songs we would sing, where i would sit and everything... i just felt like putting a worship song on and listening to it while half sleeping.. but now im happy i went to chuch coz it was really funny!! the guy leading had his guitar out of tune and sang a sentence that was then repeated 50 times -that was the 1st song- then it was the next song with 2 new sentences, one for the guys, one for the girls, repeated another 50 times... i can't really describe that service but i loved it! I mean yesterday that was just what i needed, a complete change, and songs enabling me to concentrate on the meaning of the words... and it was just so funny, it was as if God was smiling to me... and i loved the smile of the guy leading.. a great smile that was for Jesus. He was so radiant! i forgot people always have that smile when they smile to Jesus...

I've noticed people (including me, even though I'm trying to change that)usually pray using weird and special words they don't use in usual conversations.. why doens't anyone consider a prayer is chatting with God? It woul be fun to hear people start their prayers saying something like "hey God! what's up?" that doesn't usually happen does it?

Yesterday was supposed to be the "stars night" (a special night in the year where one can see loads of shooting stars - that's what my sister told me anyway, my sister being Colette) and sadly enough I didn't see any.. but last night God still showed me tons of them.. in my dreams!! It was more than magic... you can say what you want but the fact is that I wanted to see loads of shooting stars and I have seen them! :o) I love dreams! And I love the way God shows us things through dreams. Just beautiful.
