pooped and confusicated

yah, i'm pooped. i need to go help tan pack again, but i'm still in me jammies! got to get moving, girl! oy!

am part way through applying for the bc fuel tax rebate - so i get the provincial taxes i pay on fuel refunded, up to $500 a year - which will also prove my eligibility for icbc's 25% reduction in car insurance for persons with a disability (and my ultimate reason for applying). garrr, i hate paperwork. :(

i miss my mom. life is too tiring for me.

oh, and i'll be picking up a shift at the bookstore saturday afternoon. a fiscal blessing, i'm sure, but another day of no rest. :( ...i might have to skip the hockey game on saturday night, which i've been looking forward to.

at least i know that this week i don't have to be at the church early, i can sleep in until 9ish sunday morning.......

*** whoa, this is weird, as writing this, i just got a call from one of the people at the store wondering where i was - they thought i was coming in today! which i can't do, cuz i'm helping tan pack and move still. when carol called - weds i think - i would have said 'no i can't', if she had said 'friday'..... but she definately asked me for 'saturday'..... so, this may just be an answer to unspoken prayer for a day of rest tomorrow? WEIRD. but now i feel bad that i can't be at the store when they need me. garrrrrr!

but then i can hardly get myself moving to get to the first place i have to be today, never mind a second. :(

Outcast, Adopted.

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
