Today..... Today is a Tuesday....

List everything you accomplished today, no matter how small.
[from Daydreaming on Paper]
hmm....
  • got out of bed before 11 am;
  • wrote a loo0o0ng reply to a forum thread about who is heir to the promise(but it was mostly scripture);
  • checked my email;
  • chatted with mom (that's a treasure these days);
  • read a whole bunch o' blogs;
  • got rid of about 20 extraneous browser tabs i had open;
  • writing this, hoping to be encouraged by it.
not a whole lot, but it's only 1 pm. only been up like 2 1/2 hours..... besides, my goal is quality, not quantity!!!!!

i'll follow this up, since it's so early in the day, for some goals for today:
  • go for a walk (i missed it yesterday);
  • have some quiet time reading my bible - not online!;
  • listen to sundays sermon again;
  • get dressed (been too hot to get dressed in the morning when i'm still upstairs);
  • go to town to get some needed stuff;
  • do a little de-junking;
  • pay some bills (yuck);
  • fellowship with my hippie buds online, and let God use me as He may;
  • call a friend or two on the phone;
  • write blog entries when i get a spark;
  • find out when cell is this week - ie, make sure it's not tonight... and if it is, go!
i'm 'stress-intolerant' so to speak, so i have to keep things pretty low key.... i trust God that my productivity online makes up for my lack of it in the 3D-realm.....

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
