movin' on

yup that's right, i'm movin' on... away from this moldy place, into a wonderful God-given home. just ask debbie, it's a God-thing all the way.

yesterday, as i was lamenting over my stinky house and frusterating landlord, deb had a lightbulb appear over her head - dougs mom and dad next door have a one bedroom suite for rent!

the rest is history, i went and looked at it, bounced it off a few people including me auntie and me unkie, and voila!

i'm giving my notice tomorrow.

so far as things go, i'll be 'taking occupency' as of february 15th, big move happening on sunday, february 18th after church - but i can use anyones help from now until the 28th, as i'll be having two weeks to organize and prepare for the move, and then about a week-and-a-half to move the small stuff, clean, arrange, and all along, to GET RID OF STUFF!!!!!! i have to downsize big time. so...

...do you need anything in particular? mention it to me (and post a comment), and if i have one or three to liquidate, i'll pass it on to you before i otherwise give it or trash it, k?

there's not a speck of mold in the place, well ventilated, WELL BUILT, all lino flooring and new but not-too-new cabinetry (no longer offgassing too much), utilities included (including basic cable!)...

... and one of mom's last 'wishful thoughts' - for me to live in a room/suite in the home of a christian/mature family/couple.

can anyone say, AMEN?!

*******

all the walls are light pink, lol.... any ideas as to how to work with that?

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
