This quote from Viktor Frankl referring to surviving the holocaust… πŸ₯Ί

β€œOnly the suffering God can help.” - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison (361)

I am running into a problem. I LOVE the Libby app and borrowing e-books from the library. But, it doesn’t have complete sets of major series (Dungeon Crawler Carl) or the wait times are ridiculously long.

Sigh.

Hopefully, the physical books are available at the Library.

What do we do with no Tigers baseball tonight?

The “thieves and robbers” in John 10 aren’t the outsiders. They’re the religious insiders who turned grace into a scorecard. We always think we’re the hero of the story. We’re not always right about that.

Listen to the unabridged sermon here: Held

This world often feels like it’s spinning out of control. You look at the news, you look around, and it just feels that way. There’s an old country song by Joe Diffie called “Third Rock from the Sun” that captures it β€” this sense that we live on a planet hurtling through space, and things are out of control. There’s another song, from Stephen Curtis Chapman, that answers it: God is still the King of the jungle. He’s the Lion of Judah who sits on His throne, and He is still in control.

Reading the comments about the Tigers loss last night and it is a good reminder how few people really understand baseball.

Another day, another 5. The #OldGal also posts a five. If we keep this up do we get a set of steak knives or something?

Finished reading: The Aeronaut’s Windlass by Jim Butcher πŸ“š

This is the first book I’ve read by Butcher. It was a fun read with pirates and cats! Humor and action abounded. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
