season 6

There is nothing like being within dollars of running out of money in your bank account to make you budget and balance your checkbook like a mad woman. Seriously, it has become a thing of beauty. And I scraped it together, pooled my pennies to pay the credit card bill and gas bill and rent. And my car is fixed and back in all of his glory.

And I tithed this last week for the first time in a long time. I am rather ashamed at my lack of trust. I always knew I would have enough money to make it; I always do. There is always just enough. And yet I withheld for fear of running out?

In other news, I woke up this morning before 8 and promptly checked to see if Lost was online yet. BOOYAH ABC. Best morning surprise. OH MY GOSH SEASON PREMIERE YOU ARE EXCELLENT.

I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord,

because he judged me faithful,

appointing me to his service,

though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent.

But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,

and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me

with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance,

that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners,

of whom I am the foremost.

But I received mercy for this reason,

that in me, as the foremost,

Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience

as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.

To the King of ages,

immortal, invisible, the only God,

be honor and glory forever and ever.

(1 Timothy 1:12-17)

Good news to continue throughout the day and week and season.
