Second Day of Clouds...

yesterday, the first day of clouds, was another awesome day. spent much of the day with a good friend, singing and playing and encouraging and laughing... that's what it's all about, eh? then later spent some time with a dear friend... didn't go for a walk as i felt tired... thought maybe the barometric shift that had to come with the sudden, dramatic weather change might have something to do with it.

today is a whole 'nother story. i'm sooo tired, feelin' the pressure of my upcoming road test in a week (and i have NOT been practicing enough, particularly in the vehicle i'll be driving across canada this summer!), feelin' like i want to go to bed and sleep - just feel ILL.... but i have to go to the doctor this afternoon to see about meds, and about how to arrange 8 weeks of blister packs (oh yeah, the pharmacy's gonna love me! lol)....

so, i'm in the requisite storm following the calm-before-the-storm. oh, not that its turmultic or insane or anything, i just feel.... tired. cranky. like i want to shut the door on the rain that's come upon my parade.

so what does that mean? i means i need to get out of the house!!!!! it means i need to put some fresh batteries in my cd-player, find my car kit, crank the vorship tunes, and go for a drive!!!! in my weakness He is strong. GO, as tho i have the strength. He will give me the rest i need, even while i'm a-goin', cuz it's all Him.

i need to not think too much NOW about my road test, and put that off for later today, becuase if i burden myself while i'm a-feelin' like this, i'll bust. what's important right now is that i DON'T hit the hay... don't stay in, but get me butt out of doors..... i'll feel better later today, once i'm out and about.

my clock is skewed today: it feels like 2 or 3 in the afternoon, but it's only 11 am.

    Thousands have survived those "uber goober" test drivers. Be calm. You can and will pass.

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
