Te Araroa 27 - Takapuna to Auckland

 

An easy 13.5km today. I got up early to catch the ferry over to Auckland. I got there and had to buy a ticket and it left!!! So I had half hour till the next so had second breakfast. Walked to Mount Eden and found a church to go to. Lovely people and nice to praise the Lord together. Got Uber to stay with Phil & Gwen. Real bed for the night and maybe tomorrow night. 



Location:-

Mount Eden, Auckland.

Thought for the day. 


I sang a new song today, one section struck me. 


“In the space between the now and not yet 

There's a song to sing he won't forget

'Cos a broken heart's not laid to waste

If it's an alabaster jar of praise”


“Lift up your eyes

There's hope on the horizon

Oh look to Christ

His Kingdom is arriving

Give him glory

In the waiting 

Hold on to hope”


It’s sometime hard to sing and worship when we’re in need. Sickness, sadness, suffering or generally down. The thought we can give God glory “in the waiting” struck me. We can bring where we are to Him. The fact that we come,”in the waiting”, is worship. We always hold on to hope.
