wow

wednesday..... i spent three hours at the hospy with tan.... from 11pm till 2 am. after a pretty full day.

thursday.... i was supposed to babysit... but i got there 25 minutes late, cuz i just couldn't drag my sorry tush outta bed, then when i got up - and normally would be able to get ready in that amount of time - i couldn't move faster than oatmeal sliding down a wall..... so i was late. no one was home, alternate plans had been made.

ouch, failure. i hate letting people down!

so i went and got breakfast and sat in the park.... and fell asleep in the car. first for a solid hour, then continually dozing off uncontrollably. finally i got a hold of pammy and she let me come over and crash on her couch. i drove the half-block to where she was (a/c blowing in my face full on, loud music, to keep me awake, i wouldn't even have tried driving anywhere any farther away!) and slept on her couch until late afternoon. i guzzled coffee, and tried to stay awake, but i just kept falling asleep. uncontrollably. until shortly before dinner.

therein lie the wow.

friday.... today. i was supposed to be at carolyns at 9:30, but i could not wake up. so now i'm going to be there for 11..... please, Lord, get me there, today! and get me to the wedding on time, tomorrow!!!!!

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
