the village

we watched M. Night Shyamalan's, "the village." Panned by most but i loved the vision of this movie. Really a great parable of the isolationism w/in the body of Christ. (for me it was)

My favorite line,

Ivy's running toward hope. let her run
She is led by love
the world moves for love.
It kneels before it in awe.

just the details....

looks like we are moving more in the direction of a lease purchase deal with our house. making an appointment with a lending company this coming week.

This has been a good day of rest before making the trip tomorrow to northside.

despite all the desparation over our present condition with the house not moving like i wanted, i am energized that we've finally agreed on a strategy that allows us to clean up our debt and get back on a livable budget.

Lord i pray for courage and direction. help my unbelief. Lord get me back in the battle through prayer. i confess and acknowledge that battling in prayer is what i must do consistantly even when things seem out of sorts.

My prayers, constant, and repetitive, are:

Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy.
I am yours.
I believe. Help my unbelief.
Teach me to pray.
