And I have absolutely nothing to do!
I’m currently in between jobs at the moment. Last Friday was my last day at work, and I’m taking a two week breather. I plan to clean up the room, which is still in a mess… and the car needs a proper waxing (unlike the crap job I did a week ago). If anyone is free for lunch, you can contact me. Because I am freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee……… for now.
Anyway, I got up this morning and my day started out with depression (again? oh no!). I basically shouldn’t have read the newspapers. There’s just so much pain and suffering out there, and my mind has nowhere to turn. I spent the next hour sitting in bed praying to God, and I felt much better after that.
I realized that God gave us the charge to only obey Him. If only we obeyed God, things wouldn’t be so bad. It’s not that He’s *actively* causing suffering. Suffering is happening as a result of our disobedience, which is part of the nature of things that were put in place in the very beginning.
But like I have experienced, obeying God can be quite frustrating because I just have it in me to just believe and act otherwise… so, thanks a lot for God’s grace and his helping me to change.
Okay. So, I gotta get my life in shape. I need to do my taxes, which are due at the end of April. I need to get that darn sideboard out of the room. I need to iron the clothes today. Do the bed. Return my parking pass for the old office.
I’ve sorted most of the wedding photos already. From about a thousand over photos to a few hundred, to fifty. Not bad. I like, practically got rid of pictures of everyone else.
Oh, it’s 11.30am. I need to find some cool recipes and see what I can whip out for lunch.
