for anything. everything. life.
I have stuff to do today. I'm 7 years into my -real- conversion (I don't get it...I spent a couple years there knowing of Jesus, but not really Knowing Him...), and...
I need to walk out to my vehicle. not a big deal, except I'm fairly certain I'll be taunted. with...psych stuff, past gay stuff, just....stuff, stuff, stuff. I dread going out to my car, sometimes. seriously. should it be this way? no, I don't think so. Is it this way? Yes, some days more so than others, but...overall, yes.
I'm not tough. I'm not a wimp. The usual suspects (again: sin, satan, self, the world) combined to utterly and completely destroy me. THE LORD spared me, made intercession on my behalf, brought me out, brought me to -genuine- knowledge of and growing faith in Him, and now...
-sigh- I can't do much in my own strength. never could before the shrinks, definitely could.not after. now? I need THE LORD's strength and might and mercy and love and...and...
