I’m five weeks into this tour and presently I’m sat in a coffee shop in central Belfast (see last known location) reflecting on all I’ve seen, done and chatted about with people.
When my blog morphed into it’s current generation I obviously had no idea that the tour was going to come up, I had no idea that instead of writing on a what I was doing locally I’d be writing about what I was doing across the whole UK and beyond.
Throughout this tour I’d be lost without my laptop, my phone, my Mobile Broadband adaper and camera. However more than that I’d be lost without my friends around the world who are cheering me on. I’d be lost without the guys on the tour. We’ve become quite a tight unit and are always looking out for each other.
It’s still an experience I wouldn’t change for the world.
I appreciate the blog has, again, been very quiet. And for that I must apologise. As, most of, you know I’m currently on tour with American musical worship leader Roy Fields. It originally it shocked me, even though I was only asked to drive, these things just don’t happen to me. Yet here I am sat in the incredibly galmorous green room (which before you think it is actually glamorous I should telly you that it’s the van that’s happily carted myself and the 4 guys and gal up and down the beautiful island that is the United Kingdom) at Chorleywood.
And, so far I have only one conclusion - I’m blessed beyond my wildest dreams. I’m getting to share an amazing journey with some new friends. At times it’s been very very hard. At times I’ve got very low for a whole heap of reasons. But it’s been a journey and right now it’s one I don’t think I could be without. God’s teaching me a lot and maybe once I get home and have processed it fully I’ll post some post tour thoughts.
The blessing just seems to go on and on. This morning I got up and instead of having a morning off I went to serve my friends over at New Community Church and ended up playing guitar for band leader extodanaire Wing Commander Robins before rushing into Southampton to do some last minute prep for the follwoing weeks.
Who knows what the next few weeks hold. There could be extra dates that really complete the journey round the UK. Mind you, in a totally unrelated story I have now travelled the entirety most of the UK’s major road system!
