A Micro Biography!

15 years ago, I: was 17 years old, had dropped out of school because of massive fatigue and body pains. i was also a lost wanderer on this planet, involved in many, many things i should not have been....

10 years ago, I: was drifting away from 'that stuff' and seeking my purpose in life... God was working on me!

5 years ago, I: had been saved for 2 years, but suffering from much depression and past wounding....feeling like i'd never be free.

2 years ago, I: started seeing God's vision for my life....but it still seemed impossible.

1 year ago, I: started feeling like maybe i *could* do great things for God after all!

6 months ago, I: stepped out of my comfort zone and this homebody flew from my small town to the big city of Los Angeles to attend an international conference. now that's God.

Yesterday, I: saw a greater vision for what God can do - through us who serve Him - in the e-realm.

Today, I: feel God's love and acceptance so totally. i feel at peace that God will be able to do through me what He calls me to. He takes even chickens like me and makes them brave!!!!

Tomorrow, I: could be here, or be in heaven....i have enough to do today - i leave tomorrow up to God!!!!!

THIS BLOG IS IN NEED OF AN OVERHAUL. there are posts from years back i would not be able to post in good conscience now. i plan to overhaul the blog, and either delete or add a disclaimer to those posts. but that is gonna take time....

The Radical Summons: "
Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp and bear the reproach He endured. For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." Hebrews 13:13.

"The Spirit never loosens where the Word binds; the Spirit never justifies where the Word condemns; the Spirit never approves where the Word disapproves; the Spirit never blesses where the Word curses." —Thomas Brooks

‎"God receives none but those who are forsaken, restores health to none but those who are sick, gives sight to none but the blind, and life to none but the dead. He does not give saintliness to any but sinners, nor wisdom to any but fools. In short: He has mercy on none but the wretched and gives grace to none but those who are in disgrace. Therefore no arrogant saint, or just or wise man can be material for God, neither can he do the work of God, but he remains confined within his own work and makes of himself a fictitious, ostensible, false, and deceitful saint, that is, a hypocrite." --Martin Luther (W.A. 1.183ff)

i will not let You go: "Jacob's sense of his total debility and utter defeat is now the secret of his power with his friendly Vanquisher. God can overthrow all the prowess of the self-reliant, but He cannot resist the earnest entreaty of the helpless." --Albert Barnes

i will not let You go: "Jacob's determination did not flow from his strength, it flowed from his weakness." --Charles Leiter
