which is a good thing right now, she's getting checked over and un-dehydrated, and all nutritioned-up. hopefully she'll be coming home soon.
beckley is planning a work bee for getting things set up here for when mom comes home, if anyone's interested give her a call.
and now i'm signing off, becuase i'm a so stinkin' tired i could knock myself out with my own stink(ing fatigue) lol.
...hopefully tomorrow i'll have the energy, oomph and time - all at once - to have a shower tomorrow.... cuz i need it desperately. why waste time taking care of yourself when you have a dying mother and dear friends in massive pain to take care of? lol.... i know, i know, i'm being silly, but it's all been run run run no time to slow down and take care of me. highest on my priority list for myself right now is time spent with God - if i'm giving constantly giving out grapes, i gotta be visiting that vineyard and picking them regularly.... and that definately comes before bathing, much to the chagrin of my friend's noses when they smell my toeses, i supposes.... but i hope i'm erroneous on that one.
the goal: to focus this fuzzy, nut-bucket life and walk on Him - and on Him alone

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 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
