Once again im posting from Sydney International Airport.. not looking forward to this trip though.. mum isnt doin too well and i've had to up and leave my beautiful city in order to be with her and my family during this difficult time.. my flight from Perth to my final destination (Curanilahue)will take around 34hours in total.. normally this is part and parcel with going back home but unfortunately for me, this time feels like forever as my desire to be with mum is so far greater than normal.. perhaps its cos i want to spend every nano second of her time on earth by her side.. I will miss perth.. not the city but all the people i love and i will miss the GT's i have with my Crew.. the coffees, the long talks (mostly about the blog,the idle talk we enjoy so much). but mostly those rare moment that i am able to open up completely and allow my walls to come down long enough for them to see the real me.. not the guy that hides behind his humour.. Thanks to my 'negros' for ur love, support and prayers during this.. thanks for the send off (which makes it even harder to leave).. but mostly thanks for ur friendship.. a friendship i cherish and am forever grateful to God for.. now.. onward and upward.. keeping my chin up and ever reliant on my King.. cos without Him i would be lost and hopeless..
Anyways.. this post is way deeper than i had intended it to be... i have almost deleted it like after every word!.. so before i actually delete it i will go with this request.. that u pray to the living God for my mum.. that His will be done.. that whatever happens will all work for good.. obviously i want mum to be healed but at the sametime i am content with whatever happens.. i know my God will comfort me if need be.. i know my God will rejoice with me if need be.. cos i know my God is with ALL the time..
will miss ALL of you..

Dude...you almost made me cry! But then I stopped as I could picture you whispering 'shame' for showing too much emotion!:)
Thanks for the good times...there will be plenty more when you come back i'm sure. You know we'll continue to pray for all of your familia...keep the faith.xx J
Wow Serg, that's so raw and real - good on you for putting it out there.
I can't imagine how hard it would be not knowing how long you're gone for or what the future is.
I'm praying for you, for your mum. And as you said, all things DO work for the good of those called in Christ - he will see you through whatever happens and it will grow you, mature you, draw you to him. Embrace it, live it passionately, appreciate it.
If el rancho can't do the deep posts.. please find somewhere to keep up to date with what you need prayer for. I may not be one of ya negros (!), but I'm your family and will do what I can to help..
Ditto with Jess - too emo to write anymore now... miss ya already! I should shut up and let the word speak...
Isaiah 52:7-9
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news of peace and salvation, the news that the God of Israel reigns! 8The watchmen shout and sing with joy, for before their very eyes they see the LORD bringing his people home to Jerusalem. 9Let the ruins of Jerusalem break into joyful song, for the LORD has comforted his people.

Sergy - you are one of the strongest people I know, you have held amazing courage and strength through all of this..we are really proud of you. You know that we are all behind you and praying for you and your family, especially your mum - both your mum and my mum are very brave ladies battling cancer and God will place amazing healing power and grace over their lives...amen
Nigga. Great hanging out with you the last couple of days before you left. My coffee intake is already down. I'll keep the deep stuff off the blog. HA! You know it all anyway. I'll be in touch.

Hey Serg, keep strong, open and eyes up, up to a God who knows all. Wish I could say more - remember what you have inside you is greater than anyone will ever know!
