Gone Fishin'! and Campin'!

" gone campin and fishin at ackermans point at the big cold lake hint hint come take a refreshing dip with us its sweet swimmin'~!! "

thus saith my messenger message. come, if thou dost knoweth wherewith we are!

seriously, it's the best swimming, especially in the glacial creek feedin' into the lake at the spit. yah, you go numb in a couple minutes.... so you get out, warm up, and jump back in. sweeeettt!!!!!!

it's gotta be therapeutic, all those minerals in the glacial water, too!

now for the bit guilt factor: i may ~may~ ~MAY~ miss church tomorrow. my legalistic 'must not miss church!' mindset rearing it's ugly legalistic head. lol. is God gonna beat me over the back if i don't want to use the gas to come in for church and go back out again after? nope. am i? i'll try! will the devil? you bet! so who'm i gonna listen to? God. am i gonna come in for church? maybe. if i only feel like i "should", then i won't. if i really want to come out of God's wonderful creation to worship Him in the sheep shed with the other sheep, then i will. lol.

but i plan on takin' my screamin' gui-gui-guitar, lol. have some church of our own! lol.

thank God for cd's of sermons! lol.


and i'm off, for more of this:
me, camping at a generic and undisclosed location in ontario.
this is not where we are camping this weekend.
don't go to ontario, we won't be there.

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
