2013, YOU SON OF A *PEEP*

It's 31.12.13, which means it's the end of the year and everyone is highly anticipating the new year. Reflecting on the past year, all I can say is, that it was tough. It wasn't only tough for me but also for my family, friends and loved ones. A lot of tragedies, disappointments and mistakes happened within the Year of Faith, nevertheless, these challenges helped me to get to know myself better and somehow made me also grow as a person. Yes, I've had enough times this year where all I asked myself was 'When is this year finally over?' and now I find myself being a bit nervous about what the new year has to bring. I really do hope that 2014 will be a year of miracles. I kinda need a lot of that, to be honest :P

What I've learnt from the year 2013 is that prayers will be heard, changes are hard but inevitable and that family is everything. I'm not really going after the 'new year, new me' saying because I don't want a new self. I want an improved and better self who has grown out of the wounds, hurts and disappointments. Life won't get any easier so I might as well just learn how to persevere and deal with whatever life throws at me. I've also learnt that your passions can sometimes be misleading when you don't listen or respond to the red flags. Energy saving mode is something I'll try to pull through when it comes to dealing with difficult situations in the new year. To get to the point, I won't be putting my energy into something I can neither control nor change. I've given a lot of lessons this year, that when the big Man up there doesn't want things to happen and you're not obedient, he'll give you a heck of a lesson for you to finally get Him. 

With all the plans I have in 2014, I can only be excited. I'm happy that I was able to go on missions a lot this year. It made me appreciate the community even more. I want to thank all my friends who have stuck with me another year, I want to thank my family that still loves me despite the hurts I've put them through and finally, I want to thank you my readers. Never have I felt so much love for my writing through my readers! I know, I say this at the end of every year, BUT, I'm not giving up on this blog or on my writing and I really want to try to make it up to you and be better at updating. You inspire me!

Lastly, to everyone who I hurt this year, I'm forever sorry, you can bet on that!

HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR! 

GUTEN RUTSCH!

God blessed YFL with six new members in the New Year!
I have again learnt so much during this Special Camp and I am proud to say that I love serving H I M. These people are such an inspiration and I can also say that this Camp has been such a great and different experience. We had many laughs and also many inspiring and emotional moments. I'm proud of the Service Team and their committment albeit the short notice and a bit of stress around. But hey, what do they say "too blessed to be stressed!"
I am so happy that God called out these seven young people to be his followers! It is just great when the people you grew up with can share their love and their belief with you!

Welcome again, YFL-Babies! Just a week ago all the fun started! I hope that the two days of Camp are a lifetime memory for you guys :)
