a story

two men were climbing up a mountain. one stopped near the top, and proceeded down. the other passed him as he made his way down, continuing to the top. as the first man reached the bottom, he was overtaken by the second. "so the mountain defeated you, eh?" said the second. "No," said the first, "actually, we weren't even fighting."

the trials of the body

i've been sick lately, as some of you know, some don't. i've been in bed all week long. this evening i've finally been feeling significantly better. this has been a hard one. serious coughing, fever, fatigue, sore throat, headache ( you get the idea :) all week long. would go to el doctora should it continue much longer, in prevention of bronchitis/pneumonia, but i think, thankfully, it hasn't gone that far (barely). a hard trial, and i don't say that easily. i'm listening right now to "the nails in your hands" on my pc, and knowing that God isn't letting me experience this pain for nothing. i don't claim that i can "see the purpose" as some might think i should be able, but rather i know by faith that He is true. and i learn to love him more; and more so, he teaches me that his love is unfailing.
