"I know some people who are tired. My friend even suggested that they are spent. I didn't receive it for myself. I'm not spent! :-) I've not yet begun to fight, to test the waters of grace in which the great hearts drowned, the diehards now swim, and our persecuted comrades wade. May resolve bolster the courage of any of you similarly tested"
Stephen Court, PhD, Captain

I feel tested in that way - I'm feeling 'spent', as thought I'm rationing grace when I could be feasting on it freely. Why do I do that? Seriously, I know I'm wading into deepening waters of maturity, self-examination and knowledge of Christ, but I seem to make it into a right and wrong list, measuring myself against the self I was 10 minutes or 10 months ago...yikes. I think it's definetely time for a breather. Praise God that He's got me situated perfectly to slow down and contemplate exactly what it is that I think I'm doing.
