Repeated

I haven't blogged much lately.  I rarely spend much time on my computer besides doing the budget and the blog app on my phone no longer works.  Also my camera broke, and while the camera repair shop "fixed it" in a bandage approach, it's still difficult to get the battery & card out to charge and get pictures from it.

I miss blogging. I love journaling in my journal and leaving something behind for my family so they know me on a different level. I want them to know me, not just remember me.  Here is my journal, here is my online journal as well to let my family:friends just how special they are to someone.

Lately I've heard this in 4 different spots; The Shack (book & movie), 7 Secrets of Confession book, Bible  study, & The Best Lent by Matthew Kelly. What is "this"?: sin is it's own punishment.  Here I saw God as throwing down lightening bolts of punishment when I screwed up. Turns out I was the one turning away from him, as if turning away from the sun and my own shadow attached to me as my punishment.  When I reconcile with him, I turn to face him again and I no longer face my shadows.
