deaf, and a brain like swiss cheese!

i REALLY gotta get my hearing checked.... it gets worse and worse, how often i'm going, "sorry, what was that?".... and to be honest, sometimes i get so tired of sayin' "eh?" that i just nod like i really heard what they said, iffn i figure it was not something i needed to respond to.... confession time, lol!

and to top off the information i don't hear, there's what i do hear and forget. i mean, we all forget stuff sometimes, but to forget something someone told me three minutes ago, TWICE, and then forget it again? lol. some of that is my wonky attention span (if they didn't dx me ADD i'd be suprised). but then i can forget what i'm talking about three times in a row.... within the same sentence~!!!! again, partly attention span about as long as my pinky finger nail, lol, but aggravating nonetheless!!!!!!

i wandered around canadian tire yesterday for about 20 minutes trying to remember what i went there to look for! (a stability ball). a guy that worked there stopped me and asked if he could help me find something... i said, no i'm ok thanks... but what i should have said was, "sure, i just don't know what i'm looking for!" lol

anyways, i need to book an appointment to get my hearing checked, and SOON. ...i just have to remember to do it.

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
