Who am i? A Meme.

found this meme here: The Secret of Living.

I AM: not God. only God is I AM. on the other hand... i am me. i don't capitalize 'i' when referring to me, cuz God is 'I'. i am not worthy of comparison! *~smiles~*

I WANT: to be more like Jesus... and more who He made me to be. may i be faithful with what He shows me.

I WISH: that more of my friends blogged. and regularly, too.

I HATE: meanness. this one was simple, eh? ok, i'll add to that... lack of grace and mercy towards others. shouldn't we show others what Jesus has shown us in our imperfection?

I MISS: when my mom was working... she always had money to take me on a trip, or buy me some new jeans.... and man, i need new jeans... but God knows what i need! *~grins~*

I FEAR: far too much. there's all kinds of little gremlins in our lives that pop up and cause us worry, isn't there? shoo, gremlins, shoo! *~ha!~*

I HEAR: literally, i'm hearings JesusMusicOldies radio. i love it.

I WONDER: what's in store for me. it's like i'm standing on a threshold looking out the door, and the world is a big, beautiful, adventurous place... and i don't know where God's taking me.

I REGRET: that i am not more bold. yet.

I AM NOT: active enough. i am, by nature, inclined to sedentary activites - reading, writing, putering.... but i find i that i'm loving my little walks with mom.

I DANCE: only at church (usually! see above. *~grins~*)... i used to be on the church dance team, but it dissolved. that's why i'm so out of shape!!!! he he.

I SING: lots. in various styles, too. softly, loud, bluesy, folky, operatically. i love singing... but i've had to lay it at my Lord's feet because of my post-nasal drip and asthma - sometimes i am just unable to sing.

I CRY: not enough.... but more and more as God melts the frozen parts of my wounded heart. ...gee, that sounded so poetic! and melodramatic...

I AM NOT ALWAYS: sociable. it's hard to make relationships in the 3D realm... i'm tired, i don't always know what to say, sometimes my brain is just so fogged up i feel lost. it's very hard when i don't feel well and have to cancel a visit, so more often than not i just don't plan a visit.... but to 'visit' on the computer, well, all i have to do is twiddle my thumbs (and fingers!)

I MAKE WITH MY HANDS: right now, websites... at least i'm learning. in the 3D realm?... music, i guess. on the guitar, mostly.

I WRITE: music. musings. meditations. memes. i try for daily, but i don't always succeed!

I CONFUSE: others, alot, i think. for some reason, when i say something, it doesn't always convey exactly what i mean it to.... and it's frusterating. i'm confused as to why that happens! *~smiles~*

I NEED: my Jesus.

I SHOULD: not should on myself. you shouldn't should on yourself, doncha know? :D

I START: a lot of projects.

I FINISH: very few of them.

I TAG: Christy~!

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
