Lord, please remove this burden.
Or make me strong enough to bear it easily.
Or make me courageous enough to bear it in weakness.

Or help me to Love enough.

The 90s are beginning to feel like the 80s did 10 years ago.

I get that that’s obvious because of math but I mean I personally see a shift in the way the 90s stuff feels to me.

In Living Color is sitting up and speaking.. N64 and the funk of Rocko’s Modern Life.. Grunginess, etc., and I honestly guess the hacky sack thing too.

Nevertheless, if you’re looking to make a meaningful thing, i advise against leaning into this, because i think it’s a foundation that will buckle and crack unless one pulls from the deep core of it.

Retweeting this beautiful passage from Albert Barnes’ commentary on Daniel 1:16:

“(2) “More” clearness of mind and intellectual vigour can be secured by abstinence than by indulgence. It is true that, as was often the case with Byron and Burns, stimulating drinks may excite the mind to brilliant temporary efforts; but the effect soon ceases, and the mind makes a compensation for its over-worked powers by sinking down below its proper level as it had been excited above. It will demand a penalty in the exhausted energies, and in the incapacity for even its usual efforts, and unless the exhausting stimulus be again applied, it cannot rise even to its usual level, and when often applied the mind is divested of “all” its elasticity and vigour; the physical frame loses its power to endure the excitement; and the light of genius is put out, and the body sinks to the grave. He who wishes to make the most of his mind “in the long run,” whatever genius he may be endowed with, will be a temperate man. His powers will be retained uniformly at a higher elevation, and they will maintain their balance and their vigour longer.”

[John Piper @JohnPiper]

“‘Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you.’ And Jesus said to them, ‘Go and tell that fox, “Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I finish my course.”’” Luke 13:31–32

Wily though he be, I direct my destiny, not he.

The Original Greek

You may not be aware that the original Greek meaning of "The Great Commission." If you study the words, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature,"(Mark 16:15) a whole new world of interesting thoughts opens up. According to the text, the Greek word for "go" is very fascinating. It is poreuomai, meaning, "go." The word "all" also carries with it intriguing connotations. It is hapas, and actually means "all." And if that doesn't rivet you, look closely at the word "every." It is pas, and literally means "every." So when Jesus said, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature," to be true and faithful to the original text, what He was actually saying was, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." We are so fortunate to have access to such knowledge.

There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.

We are in an opportunity super-boom, but the problem is that the opportunity is not in gold or oil or real estate, it’s in intangible fancies of varying degrees of goodness.. leading me to suspect that a super bust must be in its train.

Looking out into the void is fun at first because of the vastness and novelty, but very soon anything is better than nothing.

As one looks on, the initial thrill comes from seeing one’s own light cast across the cosmos; when it vanishes in the distance, what is it that remains?
