| THEY'RE NOT MY WORDS, BUT AT LEAST IT'S A POST...
Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest, from November 1st (the day we moved to Texas)
"The first thing God does with us is to get us based on rugged Reality until we do not care what becomes of us individually as long as He gets His way for the purpose of His Redemption. Why shouldn't we go through heartbreaks? Through those doorways God is opening up ways of fellowship with His Son. Most of us fall and collapse at the first grip of pain; we sit down on the threshold of God's purpose and die away of self-pity, and all so called Christian sympathy will aid us to our death bed. But God will not. He comes with the grip of the pierced hand of His Son, and says - "Enter into fellowship with Me; arise and shine." If through a broken heart God can bring His purposes to pass in the world, then thank Him for breaking your heart."

| CONFESSION?
i used to be on xanga almost everyday with some commentary on life. now it's months between visits. i don't really even keep up with others' xanga's.
maybe the real reason is because i have nothing to say...

| NEW THINGS
there have been alot of new things happen in my life, most of which i wont talk about here. but, i have once again been reminded that i do not deal well with change. is anyone else like that? i've been told that some people really thrive on change. i am not one of them. i think i would be ok in the same place for the rest of my life, provided i like the place. i grew up my entire remembered childhood in the same house and my mom still lives there. i love my mom's house. it has all my memories in one place. i like the feeling - secure.
