As Christmas draws near the temperature is rising. It just doesn't seem right in my Northern Hemisphere mindset, but I do love summer :)
All things college are on break and this past week the airport has been a hotspot as friends head off to home, new home, and holiday destinations. As my good friend Will would say, "parting is such sweet sorrow."
The main thing I want to update you guys about is Grad Ball. Grad Ball is an event at the end of the year where the mass of Hillsong College gets "all dolled up" and celebrates the end of a school year. For most of the semester it's all people could talk about: how much fun it is, who is going with whom, who is wearing what, etc. And all the hype was totally on point!
As with everything else Hillsong does, the ball was nothing short of brilliant!
And then there was that night I got us into Justin Bieber's after party. No big deal ;)
That really is a crazy story, but it happened.
Yes, we walked the purple carpet at Sydney's #1 night club.
Yes, Justin Bieber was there.
Yes, we saw him.
No, we weren't allowed to take pictures.
Yes, there were glow in the dark pool noodles.
Yes, we had the best time.
Yes, you should be jealous.

The whole night was amazing and (in my opinion) non-coincidentally fell on Thanksgiving in America. I have so much to be grateful for including my flatmates. My sisters. Never could I have imagined random placement to go so well. Truly grace from The Lord.
| It was great to help some of our friends experience their 1st American Thanksgiving! |

One personal goal for this season is to not run empty. To not let being on summer break become an excuse for not staying full in the Spirit. It is my responsibility to engage with Christ. If I depend on my trainers and chapel to do it, I am a dependent Christian dependent on the wrong things.
Wherever you are, brothers and sisters, be responsible for your relationship with Christ. Get in His presence everyday. Don't forget to pray. Engage!
"We are no good if we only have a full cup.
We need to have an overflowing cup all the time.
It is a tragedy not to live in the fullness of overflowing."
Smith Wigglesworth
"...ever be filled {to overflowing} and stimulated with the Spirit."
Ephesians 5:18 AMP
