Hi.
It is good to be back.
Not gone that long.
Technical disruption. The CR-48 quit, sortof. Nice one year run for a free laptopishthing.
Life goes on. I just need to find keys. Droid phone is no way to write a blog.
While I try to write I am listening to Joe Pass. I may have to turn the recording off. It occupies my mind, keeps it busy. Jazz does that for me, or to me, depending on the context of the moment.
I was remarking to my Father what a week full of grace and favor this had been, one where I found myself testifying to the favor of God, or at least to the favor that was on my life. In the midst of it, there were moments where I got to see more of the same old perception gaps. There are inflexibilities in the way I see, perceive and process. These are the kind of soul issues and personal adaptations I have made to protect myself and medicate myself. But He restores my soul, and He will perfect that which concerns me. I just have to keep yielding it.
Steve says I seem to be able to change my behavior, which he does not seem to expect people to do. I am sure that I am not, but that my Heavenly Father is making me more Christlike each day. That change is reflected in the rest of my life as well.
I am grateful that I have a place to rest my weary little soul. Father, I have been working so hard to protect myself. It is a supernatural world, but I have been using my natural abilities to try to do the work of the supernatural. Ever again, usurping. I will rest again. Show me those pictures again.
