O..K... 'O'....

Recently one of my friends on Facebook (his name starts with an O) challenged me to write down all the good things God has done this year before they are forgotten. So here is the public/surface edition. Funny how when you don't have a lot of 'material' things to be thankful for, you truly start to actualize some of Taylor Swift's principles in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmMBe5Jy2P0. I still haven't finished that entry that summarizes what God has been teaching me in my 7 years without full time employment/school but I promise I'll try my best to get around to finishing that one too before the New Year or by the first week of the New Year the latest. "The summary of the summary" as I suppose my friend EA might put is that although maybe the first 6 years of that 7 year period God had a lot of work to do with me, I hope that this 7th year God is finally content and joyfully celebrating what He has done in me and rejoicing like the biblical account of 'the year of Jubilee'. Particularly, I found this quote from one of my older entries that fairly accurately describes how I felt that night I was feeling perhaps a second Pentecost [Acts 2] moment in my life about 2-3 months ago:

"God's going to come find you again and his love with overwhelm you to the point, your tears of joy can even run out!" [http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.ca/2007/04/lord-give-me-strength.html]

Perhaps not the only prophecy that I wrote which is coming true though. ;) I've also been blessed quite immensely by improvements in my both my physical and mental health. I've also lost a lot of the extra weight I put on since taking medication which partly may have been put on from anxiety related causes not just medication and it seems both that factor and the 'praying factor' have also been working very well towards my inguinal hernia recovery, perhaps my own version of 2 Corinthians 12:7.

Apparently I thought this blog had as my Pastor put it recently on a Sunday '5 years of silence' but apparently I happened to have one blog entry in July 10th of 2015? Not really sure why or if I can remember I decided to post that entry, but it would in fact be posted exactly one month after the birthday of the 'allegorical Rachel' I made reference to in this particular blog entry: http://life-of-agent-k.blogspot.ca/2008/12/dark-k.html  OH....well it's a little too personal and sensitive to mention here in a public space, but speaking of 'Rachels who are married perhaps used by God in a allegorical context....' (ah, so there is kinda a Trinity [besides the bible, also: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/?ref_=nv_sr_1] you know who are both married and unmarried eh [3 of each]...)...well no more on that here, but perhaps I should make a brief statement; especially since there have already unfortunately been some misunderstandings; perhaps even on a personal level of exactly what God was trying to speak to me in those experiences. I believe God was using them to illustrate something in my life like "God sometimes guides in more unusual ways" as per that Questions of Life book by Nicky Grumble.

Recently my cellphone also broke down and after I discovered maybe a metallic washer came lose and it wasn't grounding properly, then it worked for maybe have a day but wasn't able to charge. I also did my own tech support on it and discovered it was potentially having a software issue not allowing it to charge, so apparently the only way to fix it was to wipe the phone entirely, AKA "the clean slate".

Something 'interesting' also happened yesterday when I was having my daily walk with God, I was wondering whether a certain "gifting" I had perhaps was more of a "two-way" gift (as if this person maybe already knew I was about to head out to have some time with God) and then I saw a bunch of (probably geese) flying south for the winter at that exact moment I was wondering about that and it reminded me of that "Ducks fly together" line from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104868/?ref_=nv_sr_1

I recently also became better friends with someone God has put in my life in recent years who is quite supportive and I am quite blessed by our friendship and God does indeed still have our "best interests" in mind even amidst the present circumstances. And I'm quite thankful to have this friend/person in my life. As some of my friends back in my seminary days sort of put it, maybe it is kind of like that line from Animaniacs :D
