Visitor From the Past

This wasn't suppose to happen. This unwanted visitor wasn't ever suppose to come back. But here we are again staring one another down. Seven years ago I had surgery on my right leg. I defied odds the first time by gaining resuse of the leg and almost complet use of my big toe. It still has some numbness and I have a hard time finding shoes that feel comfortable. Now nearing on a decade later I have defied odds by having the same problem in the left leg. Only this time it was caught early because we knew what to look for and it doesn't appear I will lose a muscle this time around. I have shed some tears and prayed alot. I can see ways that the Lord is moving. He has made it possible for me to have the surgeon this time around as last, a man I believe may have samed my life if not my leg. I trust him knowing that he is familiar with my history and thus recognises that while my symptons are not typical of some who have developed compartment syndrom, he knows what I went thru last time and knows the best treatment option possible for me. If I had gone one more day without seeing him I would have needed to waited a week b/f I could have the surgery. Because the pain worsened last night instead of tonight, I was able to get into seeing Dr. Dunaway today and thuse schedule my operation first thing the next day, (tomorrow) which is the only time he does out patient surgery. Check in is at 9:30 a.m. and surgery is at 11:30 a.m. I covet your prayers. God is good all the time! All the time, God is good!

GRRR

I guess you could say I'm feeling pretty down right now. I need to rant for second. Despite everyone praying for me it looks like i am letting God and everyone else down. Its probably a good thing I diddn't get to share my testimony or whatever on a Wednesday night. I haven't earned a right to do that. The first two days went well but it seems I've managed to (parden the expression) make a big donkeys behind of myself. Its time like this im ashamed to call myself a Christian. I hate the pressure to be perfect. I hate the fact that I can never afford to be human and screw up every once in awhile. Never mind the fact that even none-christians seem to experience more success in everyday life and favor with people than I do. I am an unremarkable Chrstian; a thing far worse than being an unbeliever. Unbelieves put my relationship with Christ to shame because it seems like they have all their ducks in a row and I can't even walk and chew gum at the same time. What is wrong with me????

I'm a Mandarin!

an intellectual, and you've worked hard to get where you are now. You're a strong believer in education, and you think many of the world's problems could be solved if people were more informed and more rational. You have no tolerance for sloppy or lazy thinking. It frustrates you when people who are ignorant or dishonest rise to positions of power. You believe that people can make a difference in the world, and you're determined to try.

A Place Called Glory

I hear the sounds
OF place called glory
Where saints declair His praise
And the angels
Prostrate

There is a place
Where God's glory reigns
And the shadows
Never fall

There is place
Oh Oh ohh

There is place,
The saints declair His praise
And the angles gather round the Father's throne.

There is a place
Oh, Oh OOOh

There is a place
Just beyond the space of time
Where I shall be at my journeys
Cause where my heart is
there shall I be also

A place called glory
