Why are you Anxious?
This is just a quick visit to say that I will not be around this week. I fly down to Oxford tomorrow for an interview there on Wednesday. The interview for the whole of Scotland on Friday was fine but not outstanding. Maybe it is time to leave Scotland having lived here for almost 27 years now. I think I would quite like being close to London too, rather than hidden away in the Highlands! I know I have said this before, but I just think it is wonderful to know that God already knows where I am going to be and has his plans and perfect will set out for me. It is certainly something to take comfort in during a very unsettling time. As ever, I value your prayers!
On Thursday, I am off to a wedding where a Mr Macdonald will marry a Miss MacDonald. (Note the subtle difference in their names that mean that she will need to change her name!) I am looking forward to a good ceilidh and plenty of kilts!
I will then be found for the rest of the weekend working away in the hospital. The hospital intranet has banned blogs, so I won't be able to post or read, but I can look forward to catching up with you all next week.
Finally, inspired by Lindsay of Enjoy the Journey, I'll leave you with some of the unusual, surprising, and sometimes disturbing searches that have led people here:

Finally, inspired by Lindsay of Enjoy the Journey, I'll leave you with some of the unusual, surprising, and sometimes disturbing searches that have led people here:
- What happened with Aztecs from 1480-1520? - Don't know, I'm afraid!
- phone books of married womens feel singleness - Not quite sure what they were looking for here
- how will I look 13 weeks pregnant? - Probably a little bumpier than you did 13 weeks ago!
- falkirk wheel hate - I however think that the Falkirk Wheel is one of the wonders of Scottish modern architecture. It is a beautiful sight to see it working. Any of you come to visit, and I promise to take you there. The Snowman Irn Bru video shows it in action.
- Is Sherrin a scottish name for woman? - I don't think so, but you could ask Sherrin just to be sure.
- keziah and lord death - Who is Lord Death?
- all sorts of coins 1483 - 1546 - I think you are needing John Dekker more than me here!
- websites for elderly people trying to learn piano - Hey, I know I am not getting any younger, but I'm not exactly elderly yet!
- vacation before marriage separate rooms - Definitely a good idea!
And he said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on. For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap, they have neither storehouse nor barn, and yet God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds! And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? If then you are not able to do as small a thing as that, why are you anxious about the rest?...For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them. Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you.

That's a great list! I wish I could do this for my blog, but I can't.
keziah and lord death - Who is Lord Death?
I think they mean Lord Peter Death Bredon Wimsey. It's pronunced "deeth", of course.
Hello. I have been 'off air'for a while. It is wonderful to see your confidence in God as you approach these interviews. I hope that all the travelling goes well and that you have some good news in a bit :)
Haha, those are funny! :)
All the best for your interview! Enjoy the wedding!
John - thanks for the help. Still don't really see the connection, but maybe the next person searching for "Keziah and Lord Death" will explain now that I have been promoted to the first link on Google for it!
Susanna - it's slightly more edging towards hysteria rather than confidence, but I'm obviously putting up a good front! Thank you for your prayers. I should have news on the 8th of June...
Kristy - they did make me laugh every time there was another odd one! The interview was actually okay and Oxford is a lovely place, so I might end up there after all... I would be very happy to end up there and it would be a lovely place for people to come and visit (hint, hint?). The wedding was lovely - I'll get my photos for you soon.
I just saw your reply now (yeah, I'm slow). If I'm over your way, I'll come bother you, never fear! It would be cool to meet. :) You MUST, however, do the same!!
I haven't been keeping up with blogs, so I only just read this post! I love it! The ways people have found you are very funny! I looked at mine the other day and found some really odd ones. One of them was "Is having lots of kids a religious thing?" I googled that but couldn't find out how my blog got located as the site with the answer! I couldn't even find my blog as a link for that google search.
