'Courage can be a silent act, a quiet word, a refusal- or an acceptance.Courage has no guarantees, or certain outcomes. It is a risk taken on an unknown path. Courage brings about change.'

Solidarity. I know the feeling and it's not fun.
I think God uses these experiences to mold and guide us. In the car about 20 min ago i was thinking about this very thought. How must it feel to the block of marble as the sculptor is chipping away at it. How must it feel to the steel as its being hammered out by the blacksmith. How must the fabric feel as the tailor cuts it up and sews it together into a dress? I think that is how it is with us. We are the marble, steel or fabric, and God is the sculptor, blacksmith, or tailor.
Please be patient and gentle with yourself, and remember how much God loves you. This helps me get thru the hard times.
I am praying for you.

re: Clement
Thank you, brother, that is a very powerful analogy.
I am the fabric and God is the tailor, cutting me into little pieces! (haha) Ouch, that hurts! :P
I appreciate the kind words.
Blessings to you, Clement.

Okay, this week is a total fail.
I've been trying and trying and trying and trying, and just can't do this job to make the money I need.
I don't know why I've tried for so long, other than needing to avoid office jobs because of past bad experiences. I've got to get over it. Now.
I've decided it's a hopeless case to make the money in time for Tuesday's bills. So I can work towards Friday instead. I have to take the pressure off me because it's getting me nowhere fast.
I'm lowering my goals somewhat in the hopes of doing more steady amount ....
UGH. :(
My HP revealed to me recently that my paralysis is a result of past trauma, both from childhood and the past 3 years. I have to be patient with myself because it's taking me a very long time to recover.
fudoshin: checkin : 3: 17pm
Please do not leave advice or feedback. Thank you. Prayers welcome.
I have thirty problems in the practice exams. I have six days after this one. So that's about five problems per day.
If I get stuck while doing one of my five, I will ask a question of my professors.
Now my priority is to get healthy and feel comfortable with sitting down and studying.

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of god, that you may stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against the
rulers against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against he spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of god, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.
