#INSTALIFEWEEKLY // 4 NOVEMBER 2014

Hey November! Great to see you again. It’s been a couple of weeks since the last #Instalifeweekly… so much for weekly! I’m really enjoying getting to know Melbourne and taking photos along the way. Here’s a couple of weeks worth:

// HOOLEY DOOLEY, HOLY MOLY —– Had a great weekend preaching in Sydney. Spoke on the Three Sons in Luke chapter 15: The Rebellious Son; The Religious Son; and The Redeeming Son. The cross of JESUS calls people lost in rebellion and religion to come home to God. Got to enjoy some Steve Wakeford hospitality. He knows every person in the Sutherland Shire; is an incredible pastor, leader, husband & dad; and drives a mean 4WD! Glad to be back home in Melbourne. —– #Jesus #TheCross #TheShire #Sydney #4WD #LandCruiser

// ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER CAFE —– Here's the verdict on #SydneyCafes vs #MelbourneCafes… Sydney are making coffee that is just as good, in many cases better than Melbourne. But Melbourne wins hands down when it comes to #LookFeelVibe. Welcoming spaces and a keen eye for aesthetics are on display not just in the CBD or Hipster Lanes, but in the suburbs (this pic) and even the shopping centres. —– #MelbLyf #MiersMelbourne #SnowPony #Melbourne #Coffee #MelbourneCoffee #VSCO #vscocam #Stallion #SylvesterStalone #Yellow

// THE TREE OF LIFE —– "Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honour. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed." (Proverbs 3:13-18 #ESV) —– #MelbLyf #Melbourne #Wisdom #VSCO #vscocam #blessed #MiersMelbourne

// JESUS BIKES —– I love seeing bikes like these around #Melbourne. There are about 5 or 6 of them chained up around the #CBD. My guess is many people don't even notice them, and many who do would think the message is ridiculous. But I believe it's true and needs to be heard by all people. "For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." (1 Corinthians 1:18 #ESV) Never considered the cross of Jesus?

// THE GIANT CHAIR —– This weekend we begin a new series at church on #Proverbs. Throughout November we're encouraging the crew to read a chapter a day and share a verse each day with the hashtag: #ProverbOfTheDay. "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." (Proverbs 1:7 #ESV). This photo was taken at Mt Dandenong moments before we were smashed by a hail storm… The boys loved it! —– #CityonaHillMELB #CityonaHillGEEL #CityonaHillWEST #MelbLyf #Wisdom #VSCO #vscocam #MiersMelbourne #MelbourneKnowledgeWeek

// SEEK IT LIKE SILVER —– #ProverbOfTheDay: "…yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God." (Proverbs 2:3-5 #ESV). —– Pic of #MelbourneCityBaths. I have been going there to do laps… and then lie on the side of the pool #BeachedAz. —– #CityonaHillMELB #CityonaHillGEEL #CityonaHillWEST #MelbLyf #Wisdom #VSCO #vscocam #MiersMelbourne #SeekItLikeSilver
