Tarra-Bulga National Park...

On Monday we drove to the Tarra-Bulga National Park. It is a beautiful national park in South Gippsland, in Balook, Victoria. Tarra-Bulga is a beautiful cool temperate rain forest, so we picked a lovely hot day to visit and it was wonderful. It was a lovely drive, some quite curvy and narrow roads that logging trucks use throughout the year so you need to be careful as always driving on these roads.
We chose to walk on the suspension foot bridge trail, it took us over 1 hour  to complete and it was a beautiful, scenic walk. This rainforest is full of beautiful mountain ash and ferns and it is so lush, green and wet. It smelt beautiful and fresh and felt lovely and cool. As we walked, we could hear the beautiful sounds of the lyrebirds singing along, it was quite special and serene!
When we finished our beautiful walk, we found a beautiful spot to eat our yummy lunch amongst many crimson rosellas. We had an absolutely lovely day!

As always, I took way too many photos (if there is such a thing, Haha). Have a looksie...

Enjoying the drive...

Loving these Lyrics.. Trust in You, By Lauren Daigle...

I'm loving this song right now! I LOVE the honesty in these lyrics, they are REAL. Some times I think we expect everything to be perfect in life, we expect to have no troubles in our life in this world, however, that isn't how this world is. Heaven will be perfect, this world is not perfect...
No matter what today or tomorrow brings, we must trust in God. As the song says, we won't always get the answers we want, we will go through hard times in this life, however, "no matter what we face, He is by our side." God knows what each day brings, He won't leave us alone in our troubles, we just need to trust in HIM.
I've added a link to this song and the lyrics....
Go on, sing along with me at the top of your lungs, you know you want to... Hahaha :-D

Trust in You, By Lauren Daigle

Letting go of every single dream
I lay each one down at Your feet
Every moment of my wandering
Never changes what You see
I've tried to win this war I confess
My hands are weary I need Your rest
Mighty Warrior, King of the fight
No matter what I face, You're by my side
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
Truth is, You know what tomorrow brings
There's not a day ahead You have not seen
So, in all things be my life and breath
I want what You want Lord and nothing less
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
You are my strength and comfort
You are my steady hand
You are my firm foundation; the rock on which I stand
Your ways are always higher
Your plans are always good
There's not a place where I'll go, You've not already stood
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
I will trust in You! 

Throughout my life, I have had trust issues. One day I had enough of these issues and I cried out to God to help me...Did God snap HIS fingers and take these issues away from me? No (I know He can do that though), God showed me the way to find peace, I had to trust Him. I felt my heart prompt me to start writing about my feelings, so I started writing. First I started writing (typing) about how my trust issues made me feel and the pain and heartache they caused me. Through my writings, God showed me why I reacted the way I did when people got close to me, and He then showed me where the trust issues stemmed from. He showed me that I needed to forgive, really forgive the people who had hurt me, so that I could be free from the heavy chains around my neck, and so I could have peace in trusting in God and in trusting in people.
Do I have perfect trust for people now, no. I still have a little scar that I believe will heal completely in time, however, that little scar does NOT hinder me like it did before, it does not hold me back like it did before. If people now break my trust, it hurts me, BUT it does NOT open that old wound up again with all its disgusting infection that would in the past immobilize me. Now, even if people hurt me in this same way, I may feel hurt but I quickly forgive and keep moving forward, keep loving people, keep loving and trusting in GOD.
To my astonishment, God counselled me through my writings. I wrote pages, and pages, and pages, until there was nothing else to write. The gaping wound, turned into a little scar that is barely visible to the naked eye, only God knows how big that gaping wound once was.
Why did I share this? to be completely honest, I don't know. I just wanted to share the link to one of my fave songs, however, once I shared the link, I also felt to share this. I hope sharing this can help anyone reading it, even in a small way. Know that you are not alone! Everyone has had, or has an issue or 2. We are not perfect people, but we don't need to live with these heavy chains around our necks holding us back from being who we are created to be. We can live and walk in peace and freedom. We may not get healed in an instant (although that can 100% happen), however, we can cry out to God and persist in prayer. God has a way. Don't give up on receiving healing, don't give up on God, because HE won't give up on you! HE is the healer of the broken hearted xox
OK, I went on a bit, Sorry!
Now go groove to this BEAUTIFUL song xoxox

Love,
Dimi 

The Travelling Bible in Traralgon...

The Travelling Bible has made it to Traralgon, it has been very busy, Hahaha :-) 

I ask that you please join us in praying for Traralgon, Victoria. When we walk around this area we see and sense an obvious sadness/depression in this area, most people seem unhappy, they seem to be struggling with life in general. Please join us in praying for the people of Traralgon, pray for Gods will to be done here, and peoples hearts to be softened to Him. Please Pray for JOY to be returned to this area.

Also PRAISE OUR BEAUTIFUL GOD along with us. PRAISE HIS BEAUTIFUL NAME! Not only were we able to minister to some lovely people with open hearts in Ocean Grove just a few days earlier, we have been able to minister in Traralgon also, specifically in the caravan park we are staying in. 

You know, Traralgon was only meant to be a one night stop until we decided to have Zoey stay with us for the week. Before arriving here, we were booked onto a different site in this caravan park, but when we arrived we were moved to a different site (this has happened before). Traralgon was really a last minute change of plans (not that we really plan ahead too much) and you know what, we may not have planned for this visit but we wholeheartedly believe God did. It is NO coincidence we came here, it is NO coincidence our site was moved, and it is NO coincidence our neighbours heart was soft and open to God.....PRAISE GOD...We were able to share Gods Love and preach the gospel in a big and beautiful way to our neighbour and it was well received. THANK YOU GOD! I truly believe God had us in the exact right spot, exactly at the right time, for His beautiful purpose. ALL the Glory to God, HE is AWESOME! 
Even when we think we are just passing through a town, HE has other, much better plans. Even when we think we are just having a quick and casual chat with someone, HE has other, much better plans. Even when we think we are just blessing someone with a last minute dinner invite, HE has other, much better plans. HE knows EXACTLY what HE is doing. HE is BEAUTIFUL!
Thank You God for taking us along on this WONDERFUL Journey...This Journey is a HUGE blessing to us...May we be a blessing to YOU, and to those around us...
Love You God...Thank You GOD xoxox

Please continue to Pray for each and every area we travel too. Please continue to pray for BEAUTIFUL Australia and GODS BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE that call Australia home...Pray for Gods will to be done, for people to have soft and open hearts, for people to come into a REAL relationship with their SAVIOUR.
Pray for us to effectivly minister to the broken hearted with LOVE, ALWAYS with LOVE first and with boldness. Pray for Gods protective hand and Angels to be upon the Rech family and around us, our vehicle, our home and our journey. Pray for provision to always keep us going. Pray what we sow into beautiful Australia, into these beautiful communities, into these BEAUTIFUL people we encounter everyday, we reap and we reap GREATLY! Pray we reap a HUGE harvest for God and HIS Kingdom.....THANK YOU to ALL those who join us in Prayer, Praise and Worship...Thank You SOOOOOOO VERY much, we need it and those around us need it, THANK YOUxoxoxox

Take Care and I hope you all have a WONDERFUL day xox
