It’s been a harder-than-normal week, I think. I’m feeling it this morning, the 6th work day of my week. I’m just a little extra tired.
Based on events of the week and/or recent weeks, at one point (or many points) I have thought:
- I hate religion.
- I hate self-righteousness.
- I hate sin/evil
- I hate sickness, and death
- I hate debt
- I hate when people think they are better than other people
- I hate institutional thinking
There were probably more, but I need to stop. In fact, I could likely wax eloquently on each of those bullet points and perhaps even sway a mind or two toward my perspective on the matter. But I won’t.
This week—though it’s been harder because of other stuff—I have also been super thankful for:
- A year and now slightly more of no additional debt. None.
- The provision we’ve seen by our Father to make that happen – in all sorts of ways!
- In an economic downtime for the whole world I have almost more work than I can handle
- Good friends, even if they’re far away
- Most of all: Jen, and Ian, Alex, Kirsten, Julia, and Emma Campbell.
Almost done with this week. Ready to enjoy the week’s end (Sunday evening and Monday, for me) and glad to know that no matter how hard the week is, when I am connected to the Vine, I have all I need, since he is Eternal Life. And beyond what I need, I have a life full of great things from my Father who loves me.
So I am tired… and burdened… but even more blessed.
