back in to the stream

so i’m back into the stream of everything now, back to school, and right back into the crowded chaotic work filled lifestyle… still a bit sick, coughing fairly deeply but a lot less frequent, which is a plus since i can function and talk without too much trouble.So after devotions, read Jeremiah 8 — and being my first skim through it, i didn’t get too much, it was basically about God punishing them… but what i found i guess was that God is the giver of all good things, ‘every perfect gift’ and when we turn away from him, when he withdraws his presence, those good things that we depend on — both the needs AND the wants start to loose light, and become corrupted, like the water becomes poison, famine, all that sort— and in this time when God’s presense begins to withdraw… the poisonous serpants come and are there to punish us…. symbolic — when we walk outside of God’s light when we stray far off and don’t have our focus on God, Satan is there to turn our lives sour… and with our back turned away, we aren’t as receptive and we begin to loose out on God’s original purpose and state for us.

So yah, as i begin to regain health… i really gotta stay focussed and centered on God, cause its taken me all my energy thus far to get this point, i’m burned out, tired, weary and realy i’m running on E (empty for those ppl who don’t drive), so the only thing sustaining me now is God, the only source of power that is still available– Jesus. really need to spend more time meditating and relying on God than trying to bust it through with my own strength..

so yah today went downtown for interview thing which went surprisingly well…. thank you mommi!! *hugs* :) we were going to go find homeless ppl and see if they would be ok with us videoing them, but turns out God provided, and through my mom we were able to talk to her co-worker who was a worker with homeless ppl for 20 years, and we talked to an ex-homeless person for some too.. have about 21 min of footage gotta edit, revamp / repackage and put everything together in a nice presentable form.

got quite a bit of work tonight, so i won’t blog too much…

oh rite — Shirley do calculus hwk!! go go go!
