went for a bike ride on my new bike with machoo on may 19th (date courtesy my cell phones date stamp, lol). you can see my dandy little bike in the background of the first pic....
one of my favorite necklaces and one of my favorite pair of hoops.... brightness!!!! :D
my hair is funny from the vents in the bike helmet, i have a faux tri-hawk!!!!
these are on the quasi-pullout on skeena (or is it frank?) street, believe it or not *before* the river got really high.....
(...ahhhh, yes..... one needs a few good pics of one's self once in a while.... makes one feel actually... kinda *purdy*, lol...)
and then, today... i biked to church, all by myself. i was hot and sweaty when i got there, but the satisfaction of having arrived there on my own steam (with God's mighty grace, of course, lol) made it worthwhile the effort.
even though i *could* have gotten a flat tire, been sucked under a semi, been hit by an absentminded driver, or been eaten by a bear.....
i'm facing my (mom's) fears.... yes, indeedy!!!!! :D
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
