TT#5... and a grumble.

first, the grumble. watched global news on the flooding here in town. grr. they totally overplayed 'running out of food in stores and gas in gas stations' bit. we're still getting food through the cranberry, they can barge it, and we wouldn't be running out of gas if people weren't hoarding gas (i saw someone filling like 8 jeri(sp?) cans today. oink. but oh well, they are saying they will barge it in thru kit. so whatever!!!!!!

ok, thankful thursday.


i am thankful that God is in control.
i am thankful for treasures in heaven, so i don't have to worry about treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and rivers erode and steal it away.....
i am thankful for a new leg... even if it means losing a perfectly wonderful leg (whaaahh~!)
i am thankful for those who are bone of our bone and flesh of our flesh.... the true family.
i am thankful for the ability to fear God, and the help He gives to help me not fear man above Him.
i am thankful for new songs, and friends who put up with my quasi-proficient guitar playing, nay, they encourage it!
i am thankful for being thankful, cuz i am...... :)

i am a delinquant....

...blogger!

i dunno. i'm not much too interested in turning on the comp much lately much. i only did this morning cuz i had a coupla new songs to type out.

my aunt & unk are in the evacuation warning part of town. my other aunt and unk (the ones i never, ever, talk to) are totally flooded, so i heard.

what the heck, The Blood is thicker than water.... ie. family by 'The Blood' (of Christ) is a closer tie than family by 'water' (ie natural born).

/opine.

i went to go get gas today, and the station was completely out of gas. so i went to another station and got next weeks gas fillup. well, fiftyup. not fillup. fiftyup. yup. lynnies lost it! lol.

ack, i just realized why i'm feeling so uncomfortable sitting at the comp.... i'm sitting on my piano bench, instead of my ball..... hmm, i wonder if i can play the piano playing on my ball? heehee.....

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
