Ever been to a restaurant where the staff treat you like they are doing you a favour by serving you? Or worse the staff make you feel like you just asked for their family inheritance when all you want is a variation of something on the menu? They proceed to lecture you on why it can't be done..... Not here to name names or open a shame file, but there are some places that deserve it. At the other extreme there have been occasions where we have encountered exceptional service and attitudes from restaurant/cafe staff. The 'can do' attitude not only allows delivery of what one has asked for, but the atmosphere in the restaurant is so different to the one where there is a "can't do" attitude.
Same thing can happen on a commercial flight. When you have even one member of the cabin crew with a "can do" attitude the atmosphere on the whole plane is different than when there is not one. Some flights are plain horrid not because of weather conditions, but the atmosphere in the cabin created by the crew who are all "can't doers".
So it seems a can do attitude gives room to create a great atmosphere that anyone around the "can doer" can feel and enjoy. It is infectious. Go on try it and look for the smiles on people's faces appearing in a widening circle around your life.....
can do.

Things I Love
Seeing people connect with God is the best experience for me as a Christian. Its one of the things I love. Last week we baptised 12 people in our 11 am service. Young and old. The presence of God and His effect on those being baptised was incredible..... If you are a Christian and you have not been baptised by full immersion, can I suggest you do. Get on to it......

I love flying and watching aircraft
I have always been fascinated with aircraft and flying. Julie & I had not flown anywhere together until we went to Sydney for our first C3i conference in 1995. God has blessed us with many opportunities to fly together (even around the world in 2007) as part of our ministry life since then. How amazing is God!!! Last week however we flew home from Canberra via Melbourne and for the first time in my life I uttered the words "I am over flying". Never thought I would feel like that, and I know I will fly again and love it.... just not for a while.
Thought you might enjoy this clip as an encouragement about the joys of flying!!!! Some of them are unbelievable.
Scary landings

October - Getting to know Jesus
Do attitudes arise out of character or do they shape character????
It's a bit like which comes first - the chicken or the egg???
Phil 2:5 "Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus...."
What a great start to the month & looking at what we do!!!! So confronting...our attitudes!!!!!
They set us up for all that lies ahead - so work on them, get a great attitude to everything!!!
"To build character that supports the weight of life, you need to sustain good attitudes" .....Bruce
Come on you can do it...let's help each other
