ahhh!
we're finally moviiiiiiiiiiiinnnggggggggggg!

driving alone for two hours on days like today
is so good for the soul.
getting a letter with your favorite verse on it
from someone in Cali shows you how incredible
our God is. ps.42:7
picking up boxes to pack with made me just about
skip all the way to my truck.

The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy.
The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon;
they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God. 
Strengthen the feeble hands, steady the knees that give way;
say to those with fearful hearts,
"Be strong, do not fear; your God will come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come to save you."

5 Then will the eyes of the blind be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped. 
 Then will the lame leap like a deer, and the mute tongue shout for joy. Water will gush forth in the wilderness and streams in the desert. 
 The burning sand will become a pool, the thirsty ground bubbling springs. In the haunts where jackals once lay, grass and reeds and papyrus will grow.
And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness.(make it Hamilton st.)
The unclean will not journey on it; it will be for those who walk in that Way; wicked fools will not go about on it.
No lion will be there, nor will any ferocious beast get up on it; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there,
and the ransomed of the Lord will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

at mds again.
missing nick.

isaiah 35.

yes. yes

nick's doing good. the staff at immanuel are amazing, really.
and the meds only cost $13. i was expecting hell. haha
what was i thinking?
a three year battle was over today at 1230pm. i feel it too.
nick cant lift anything or bend over for 4 weeks to keep
the 3 stiches (is that all!?) ok.

i'm going to lincoln for another medical study until
friday afternoon.

(keep us safe. your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.)

so, i have good news and i have bad news.
most of you know that nick is going in for
surgery tomorrow to get his hernia taken
care of. well, the doctors office called today
and told us that they need $500 upfront
or they wont do it. not upfront really, they
need it TODAY. why didnt they tell us
this last week??
ohwell. the 500 is the doctor's fee
(which is usually $1200 bucks).
and the doctor also waived the pre-screen
appointment fee which was another $570.

so thats amazing. although i am just frusterated
with owing family more money.

"you're all i've got. the only one who's promise
has come through. they only one who can get me through"

i dont know how i feel about this. ha

You are an onion in a cup. But you knew that already. You make people cry, but not on purpose. You're honest. Hey, if you had bad breath, you'd want someone to tell you. So you do the same to them. As natural as the truth feels, and as much as you hate liars, both of those things might keep you a little bit seperated form the rest of humanity. Very few people understand the value of truth. That distance, sometimes lonliness, is what you have to live with when you're true to yourself.
Take this quiz!

i read this this morning:

"See, the Lord has one who is powerful and strong.
Like a hailstorm and a destructive wind,
like a driving rain and a flooding down pour."
isaiah 28:2

Nick is going in for Hernia sugery next tuesday
the 18th.
Lord, we are trusting in your provision.
please be praying.

God has blessed me just by my friends alone:
my best friend is a massage therapist.
and so is my sister in law.

not the same person.

dont be hatin'

last night i dreampt about anderson cooper
and standing in the house that God is
going to build for me.

isaiah 43:
" you are MINE!"

i usually have this weird feeling about holidays like
"this really doesn't matter at all. but at least i get
to see some family and eat alot of crap"...

but i've had this mounting excitement and
respect for tomorrow. maybe its just freedom
is such a great thing and we take it for granted.
or maybe its that i need more of it.

and pit is gonna be good tonight.
