I have had a terrible month. I have been sick for most of it. And not just a little bit sick. Multiple trips to the doctor sick. I have spent the majority of my time off either quarantined in my room or just in there because I didn't feel good enough to do anything else.
I was transferred very suddenly (two days notice) at work to a different salon in the Grand Rapids area. Longer commute. Lateral transfer.
My car pulls to the right when I let go of the steering wheel. I don't know why. I've been ignoring it because I don't want to find out that it's expensive.
My roommate(s are/)is moving to Texas in October. I'm envious of her adventurous spirit, and I am going to miss the crap out of her. I don't want to find a new roommate. I hate most people.
I let the dishes pile up on my turn again...

I have had a fantastic month. I've lost weight because I'm never hungry from being sick so much, but hey, get it where you can. Also, being sick introduced me to both New Girl, which successfully pushed Zooey "tandem bike-riding, ukulele-playing, manic-pixie-dream-girl" Deschanel off my shit-list and back onto my tolerable in the correct context list, and The League, which made me kind of wish I understood football a little bit better, but not enough to even Wikipedia it, because mostly I'm too busy thinking about how big my crush on Mark Duplass and Jon Lajoie is.
I needed a change. I was starting to stagnate, and it was driving me nuts. My job went through a sudden and unexpected upheaval, and it was jarring, to be sure, but I feel like I'm making progress again. I think I'm on a better track toward finding what's right for me. And now that I'm moving, it's easier to keep that momentum up.
My left arm is getting really strong from holding my steering wheel a little left of center all the time.
More change is on the horizon, but I have a feeling that if I just remember to lean into it, things will work themselves out. I do envy Rachel and Ryan and their new search for fulfillment, because I will miss them, but that said, they are inspiring me to find my own enrichment.
And it's all around. It's just in the way I look at it.
INCLUSIVE SALVATION
ReplyDeleteWho are those who are included in salvation? All men who believe and obey what the apostle Peter preached on the Day of Pentecost are saved. It does not make any difference what denominational name is written on the church building where you worship, if you obey the gospel preached by Peter, then, you are saved, you are a member of the Lord's church, you are part of the church of Christ, you a member of the body of Christ, you are a Christian.
What did Peter preach?
1. Peter preached that Jesus was a miracle worker. (Acts 2:22)
2. Peter preached that Jesus was resurrected from the dead by God the Father.(Acts 2:24-35)
3. Peter preached that Jesus was both Lord and Christ.(Acts 2:36)
When the three thousand believe Peter, they asked "What shall we do?"(Acts 2:37)
4. Peter told them to repent and be baptized in order to have their sins forgiven.(Acts 2:38)
This is the same message Jesus preached. (Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will be saved....)
THE TERMS FOR PARDON ARE: Faith-John 3:16, Repentance-Acts 2:38, Confession-Romans 10:9-10, Baptism (immersion in water) 1 Peter 3:21
All who meet the terms for pardon are saved regardless of the denominational name on the church building.

Congratulations on your first spam comment! (I mean, unless you know that guy.) I am sort of jealous in a weird way.
ReplyDeleteAlso.. I don't know if I want to like Zooey Deschanel, so I've been avoiding New Girl. Then Gwenyth Paltrow will have all of my Hollywood hate and that doesn't seem fair.
Buck up and drive on. But get your steering checked.
