    beware-obsessive rambling ahead

    I can do little more than celebrate and reflect today. It's been a different kind of day today. a lazy day of forced stillness. i left the apartment only once. i worked on this new site- which gave me a chance to reflect over the past 15 months of blogging. I've relived some exciting, painful, passionate, and joyful moments. Lord, You have been faithful and i realize that my weaknesses are ever before me. I cry out for you to parent my children and give them a vision of Christ. I fail the test of parenting in a variety of subtle categories. They are Yours Lord, just as i am.

    I am reminded of the friends i have made. (here comes the obsessing again-but it's late and i don't care) i need to be a better friend to my friends. i spend so much time fearing that i will let them down and wondering why they hang around. i am more comfortable in the utility role. why is that, Lord?

    Lord, are You going to do with me?

    An old Steve Camp song comes to mind:

    Oh God why is Your peace so hard to find? And the answer to the questions that haunt my mind. Oh Lord, Your ways are not like mine
    And it pounds like thunder within in my breast... all the anger of my humanness. And though I call You Lord I must confess, I'm a stranger to Your holiness, a stranger to Your holiness.

    i've been window shopping blog tools for weeks and weeks and i'm convinced that squarespace is the king of cool:-)

    www.squarespace.com

    It's a pay service but I think it's well worth it. I'm on the mid range plan. 9something a month. 200 mgbs of real estate. It's very adaptable- My site actually is about 6 blogs blended together in one. The poetry section, (3 seperatre blogs) the quotes section (2 blogs) and the journal setion. The other pages are extras. I feel like I've moved up from a yugo to a BMW:-)

    I know. I sound like a commercial....
