wonder

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be (Psalm 139:14-15, NIV).

A friend of mine usually comes to visit on thursdays with her son and newborn daughter. Their friendship is priceless. This verse comes to mind as I've seen the newborn come to be. She is wonderfully made so perfectly by God. Its amazing. I'm anxious to see what He has in store for all the days ordained for her.

A favorite song of mine is Wonder by natalie merchant. I relate to it in alot of ways. I have confounded doctors from different cities. Raised with love, faith and patience. We are each 'a wonder of God's own creation.'

to the dmv

today i hafta go get my id updated and car tags renewed. i used to do all this kind of stuff alone and think nothing of it. now days someone is with me to help all the time. i remember in springfield, mo that the dmv was downtown on the square. it was a seedy area with the bus stop and homeless vagrants all around. i often had to park 2 blocks away. oh how the Lord protects us at all times. i was never alone, God is with me always. thankful for His protection.

new restaurant review

we went to the new cajun restaurant, cayennes, in jacksonville. i recommend it. good service w/good food. buffet or menu offered. i prefer the menu myself. tues is half price appetizers so you can try several different things.  it wasn't too spicy either.

if you believe it, you can do it

i am a big believer in confidence in yourself. i don't know if you're born with it, taught it, or its a learned response. i know i've achieved goals in my life despite my disabilities because of believing i'm as capable as the next guy. i've had others say 'you can't' or 'you won't'. that just pushes me to prove otherwise. so be your own best motivator, cheerleader and driver. others can encourage but its up to you ultimately.

where do i begin?

i really don't know where this blog will lead me. the blog is named from my diary days as a child. i would often write whatever happened that day and end it with 'and that's that.'
