man i worked hard last night. i packed up all my daily needs stuff and moved them to the new place BY MYSELF. when i opened the door to take the stuff out to the car it was POURING - i did it anyways. i was not going to spend another night breathing moldy air if i didn't have to!
what i took: a box of food, a box of cutlery/dishes etc, a laundry basket of clothes, a basket full of towels and hangers and such, my fireplace heater, a box of toiletries, my cd player.
i arrived with all this stuff at the new place about 10pm, unpacked everything but the fireplace, and was in bed by midnight.
i slept better than i have in ages, except for a headache.
today i unpacked the fireplace, and came to the old place to pack up some more stuff - food, dishes, pots and pans, laundry hamper full of clean clothes, and do to some laundry. i have about three hours to get all this stuff unpacked before i need to get ready for the dinner tonight, so i should boogie.
i'm utterly exhausted, but i feel good overall. but if i keep going this hard i'll prolly burn out so i need to be careful.
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
