Update Season VI - "A New Day Dawning"

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Bushie is seducing a married woman?? What a great plot twist!

You'll find this funny, but when I was dating Susan, this friend told us point blank that if she had not married her current husband, she would have married me.  I was flattered, but very embarrassed at the same time and I had to scramble to douse the situation, because Susan was getting a little hot under the collar...  Talk about awkward...

Oh - well then that's the perfect person that you should be spending even more time alone with!  You could "work out" at her house!

She's happily married and has three kids, the older two are non-verbal autistic.  So, that dream will have to remain a dream.

And people never cheat?

She will never cheat on her husband, and I'm not going to do anything to tempt her.  Her husband is a wonderful man and is a great father to his three children.  He is diligent to take his wife and his children to church every single Sunday and usually only miss one Sunday a year when they take the children to Disney World each June.  He is a hard worker, having been at his job for 6 1/2 years with no signs of layoffs or cutbacks.  They have been married for nearly 10 years.  He is the epitome of what a father should be for his family, the spiritual leader of his home, always worshiping His God while leading His children in the ways of Jesus Christ.  He is not perfect, but there has only been one perfect man in the history of the world, and they nailed Him to a cross.  I would not change their marriage for anything.

Yet she made a weird statement saying that she thought about marrying you... ok, Jeff, you can continue being naïve.

So what's the story on getting that exercise app?  We're all dying for proof to see that you're walking.

So what's the story on getting that exercise app?  We're all dying for proof to see that you're walking.

I haven't tried to download it in a few days.  I've let other things get in the way.

It takes like 2 minutes to download an app... why don't you do it now?

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

You've got what on your tablet?

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

You've got what on your tablet?

The app.

It's a GPS-based app.  You're not going to carry your tablet around when you walk, are you?

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

I'm surprised Bushie hasn't made an announcement that he will suspend his diet today out of respect for the victims of the Boston marathon bombing.

Diet? What diet?    I'm trying to cut down, but I am not going to call it a diet.  Diet is too depressing of a word.

Your BMI is higher than your life expectancy. You ought to be depressed.

Not necessarily.  I am trying to change that, but I don't let it get me down.  If I become depressed about it, I will become even more unmotivated and quit trying and am almost guaranteed to exit stage right early.  It's concerning, but it's not depressing.  Plus, I take the Apostle Paul's advice that he gave on two occasions, "For to live is Christ, but to die is gain" and "Absent from the body is present with the Lord."  Note that I'm not ready to go home yet, but if the Lord calls me home for whatever reason, I won't hesitate (not that I'll have a choice.)

You're twisting Paul's words.  It doesn't mean you shouldn't take care of yourself.  By your logic, suicide would be a good thing.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

Nobody is here forever. I wouldn't dwell too much on a statistical average. I would urge you to make the most of your time and to try to live a healthier life.

Absolutely.  That's what I intend to do.  I will not be perfect at it and there will be days that I slip up, some intentionally, some unintentionally.  The main thing I can do is try.

So do it!  Start exercising and eating less.

I've already started doing the latter, still have yet to get started on the former.

Did you walk today?

Did you walk today?

Just a little around campus in the 30 minutes that I was waiting for the counselor to get back from lunch.  I didn't have my phone with me as they weren't allowed in the testing room.

So why didn't you do any other walking?

There's an image of a cat that I'd normally post after reading something like that, but the rules on profanity prohibit me from doing so...

Is it Tard the Grumpy Cat, or another feline?

It's another cat.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

No.  I don't know the cat's name.  It's a gray cat with black stripes.  But this guessing game is kinda fun... it's like my old candycorn games!

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

In any case, you do realize that you don't need a travel agent to look up any of this stuff for you, right?  You can just go onto kayak.com, or any similar site, and input your details, including any specifications about layover lengths and the like, and it'll tell you your options.

Well if the church is buying the tickets, I'd think it's pretty much out of his hands.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

I'm not saying He endorses my decision.  Quite the contrary, I've signed on to His decision.  If it were my decision, I would be staying home and trying to work.  Since God is in charge, not me, I have to do what He tells me.  It makes even more sense to follow His direction since He bought me with a price, the price of His only Son's blood.  There is no greater love than laying down one's life for his friends and even enemies.  Since He bought me with His blood, I have no choice but to obey Him.

This makes no sense to non-Christians, I get that, and it is foolishness to non-Christians, but it doesn't make it any less true.

I will admit I'm not the best at following God's commands and listening to His teaching or even recognizing His calls.  However, I do know without a shadow of a doubt that this calling to move to Kenya is from Him, not from myself.

I highly doubt that this is truly his will.  I think it's your will, and you're using God as an excuse to pursue it so much.

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

But you already lied about interpreting his will.  At one point you said you physically heard his voice, and then later you changed and said that it was only you feeling him urging you to do missions.

I am not going to respond to posts that are trying to get me to doubt what I have been called to and are designed to get me to stay home.

Translation: I was caught in a lie, and there's no way I can get out of this one.

Not a chance.  All you're trying to do is discourage me by pointing out lies.  That's all it is. 

Will you admit that you lied?

Yes, I did.

Then why did you later say that you didn't, and that it was all metaphorical?

I don't know.  Now, if you will excuse me I refuse to listen to attempts to discourage me.

Come on, Jeff... quit cowering with your tail between your legs every time someone challenges you on something.

This interrogation has no rhyme or reason other than to question my ethics, question my integrity, question my commitment to my Savior, so this conversation is done.

The rhyme and reason of this interrogation is to get you to tell the truth for once on this forum.

I tell more truth on this forum than lies.  I have lied before, several times, but not every single time like you are lying about.

Calm down... it's a figure of speech.  Of course you tell the truth.  But you have lied a lot more than several times.

I know it's a figure of speech, and I will not deny the last sentence.

And, I'm not upset.  I'm just trying to figure out why every time I talk about moving to Kenya, my commitment and motives get questioned.

You really think you've only lied "several" times.  Define "several" for me.  Give me a range of what "several" is.

Um, read my first sentence again...

Oh, ok, so as long as you tell more truth than lies, everything is OK?
