revamp!

yay, finally got around to doing something i've been meaning to do for a while... move my craft blog links to my craft blog and keep this blog sphot specifically friend/God/life related.

still to do... check over all my links and fix dead links or remove links that don't fit or apply anymore. start adding labels/tags to new and recent posts (entire archive ain't gonna happen! labels didn't even *exist* when i started blogging, lol)...

and, uh, start writing more about my disability and difficulties. i've pretty much reserved that (mostly) for private writings, but... i'm thinking i'm moving to a bit more transparency here, so... yeah. pray for wisdom for me!

i still like my extra-wide blog format (otherwise i got tons of dead space on my screen that i'd rather use textually than just ornament with pre-made blog templates - yeah, i always go the most challenging route!)... but i may update colors/graphics, as well. and maybe move stuff around in my columns....

oh, and definately clean up my playlist!

anyways... hope you enjoy this nutbucket blog, in whatever shape and form it's in!!!! :D

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
