Saturday Post 611

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 4183 steps (sweet that's the second consecutive day I'm over four grand!); secondly, John Piper's devotional topic from last night's 'Amazed @ The Resurrection'; thirdly, TWFT topic's 'Do It All For The Glory Of God (1)' and fourthly, Our Daily   Bread's devotional topic's 'Remembering To  Forget' but fifthly  and way most importantly, I'm really still owed ONE HOUR and TEN MINUTES online after I watch  the 6pm news bulletin (Nine's) for the 38TH time!! Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, what better way to start the weekend then with my 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night? Like yesterday,  nature didn't call until  6:20am  and after one pot :P trip, I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• After nature called again around 7:45am, following another pot :P trip I spent another ten minutes continuing my mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me get through today okay. I find it's exceedingly important to constantly remind the cruel and unfaithful God that He has no bearing on my good day whatsoever, that I am perfectly capable of having a good day without Him, despite Him and apart from Him, because my good day's dependent on my own good attitude. If only God would remember that ... *sigh* He created the phrase 'live and let live', so why the heck can't He lemme live the free, independent life that I deserve? Okay, fair enough, we all only deserve death because of Him, but why can't He just lemme live the life that nearly everyone else gets to live?? *sigh*

•  Nature calls once more around 9:15am and not long after that, PIG mum begins her daily noisy   a-THUMPING around upstairs. Soon, she's let herself into my room around 9:30am and say fifteen more minutes since once Sharon arrives @ 9:45am, I'll get up.
  Cheers,
  Em.  ^^
