I don't know what the title of the post means in relation to anything in this post, not really anyway. Except that sleep means a couple of things - this blog really is still in deep sleep, owing to work commitments (including 3 Sundays in a row!), and that sleep is something I am often in extra need of - and that giant simply refers to a bike I will hopefully be getting at some stage - model undecided (looking at OCR 3, CRX 3, Innova) - excitingness when I get it, I'm sure!
Currently, looking at the tail end of this year, I am in dire need of a break, but thanks to God that is only just around the corner now - just on 2 weeks left, then 5 weeks' leave - I'll be so lost for plans/things to do! After leave, I'll be in Wangaratta for three months, working emergency, and then coming back to Melbourne and doing cancer surgery at Peter Mac, and then a couple of specialised surgery terms at Royal Melbourne. I expect it will be quite challenging, but hopefully also interesting and confidence-boosting at the same time.
It's just on a week till Christmas morning, and I think it's a timely reminder to celebrate the Good News that we've all been given, the news of Jesus' coming into this world! Thank God for sending His Son to redeem us, bring us into a deep relationship with Him, and cleanse us from our sin. About a year ago, I wrote another blog condemning the commercialisation of Christmas (I think? or was it Easter?) - either way, I think that I've been in the shelter too much this year to notice the Christmas hype, and it's refreshing to think of it just as a time of peace and reflectiveness when the world slows down and people go away on holiday, taking rest as God did on the seventh day of Creation. And as we slow down and relax, may we, too, remember God's amazing present to us in His Son, Jesus!
God bless, happy Christmas and New Year!
