The entropy of this universe is beginning to fluctuate wildly. It’s a major reason why I can’t sleep. I only got three hours before tummy issues required a long sit on the porcelain throne. And in my head I heard my mom singing this is the day that the Lord has made. While I’ll certainly rejoice, I’m not sure I’ll be all that glad in it as I crash my car into an oncoming vehicle going 75 mph because I drifted off to sleep! I may have to make multiple stops for caffeine infusion and blood recirculation. I need to get to Stamford safe and sound. I know God is with me, obviously as He is with Emily, as is the Holy Ghost. But there is still being stupid and simply making reckless choices. Unfortunately, the Lord only covers stupidity so far.
Since I’m up I may as well serve the Lord. My Bible is still in the house and not in the Big Bend because I left some books accidentally on my shelf because I was tired and extremely distracted…

1 Corinthians 12:12-14, 18, 21-27 is today’s reading.
1 Corinthians 12:12 “For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ.”
13 “For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of the Spirit.”
14 “For the body is not one member, but many.”
The importance of fellowship is clear here. Which is why I”m going to Buffalo. I have ZERO fellowship here and the Stamford flock belongs to Emily. And she doesn’t realize yet that it’s GOD calling her there. But she has the right idea. And Vermont is also her job. Not mine. They probably are a lost cause here too, but for the few who DO listen to her, it’s worth it. But not to me.
Verse 18 “But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired.”
Jesus has put all of us into spots that He expects us to serve Him.
Verses 21-27 are speaking directly to me right now.
21 “And the eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I have no need of you’ or again the head to the feet, ‘ I have no need of you.’”
22 “On the contrary, it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;”
23 “and those members of the body, which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our unseemly members come to have more abundant seemliness,”
24 “whereas our seemly members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more redundant honor to that member which lacked,”
25 “that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.”
26 “And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it,”
27 “Now you are Christ’s body, and individually members of it.”

Pick a claim and defend it not just a topic. Or your newsletter or whatever just dies.
All my writing has been dying in silence. What am I doing wrong? I make claims all the damn time! Perhaps I’m just burying the lede too much? I need to reevaluate everything about how I present my work, that’s what it is. Everyone else I promote blows the fuck up, just like Emily with RescueGirl557 and Dark Horse Volume 2!

Omg Brooke and Audra are so fucking adorable on this live cover of love story.

Emmelie and I are on the same page here:
This might be the best video she’s ever made. The idea of decluttering by asking yourself if I could hand this item back to get a full refund would I? If the answer is yes, get rid of it. And she had no luck selling online. It was all mostly straight donations and it made her mad she bought so much stuff!

Adam and Matt of three days grace found Rain’s cover of I hate everything about you! Hurray!

Btw Ella is now 1, 3, and 4 on the billboard hot 100 with Choosin Texas, Be Her, and I Can’t Love You Anymore. 2 is Taylor with I Knew it, I Knew You. Poor Olivia got kicked way down the charts. I hate the music industry except for Ella and Taylor obviously.
…
Still one of the best asmr videos ever made:
