I'm still struggling to completely get over my cold. My ears are terribly plugged, and that's making me nervous about Saturday. Anyway, yesterday I was pretty down (as seems to happen more often than it should with me). Sorta drowning in the muck of despair. And as I was going to bed, I thought about Pilgrim's Progress. How Pilgrim was stuck in the dungeon of despair. The Giant even gave him everything necessary to kill himself. Yet...SOMETHING kept him from doing that. It wasn't until he and Faithful (name correction...?) were very near death that Pilgrim dug around his clothes and found a magic key. Okay, it wasn't really MAGIC, but somehow, that key fit into all of the locks. And after using that key, they were able to get free. And it occured to me for the first time ever that perhaps that key is God's Word. The Bible is the key to getting out of any mucky or despairing situation. So I thought of the verse in Philippians (4:11) where Paul says that he speaks not in concern of need, but that he has learned to be content in all things. So Paul was locked up in jail, arms in cold stocks, utter darkness, dampness, coldness, no friends except through letters, whipped, beaten, deprived of MANY necessities, yet he learned to be content. In ALL of those things. And my mom talked to me and told me that my external circumstances will NEVER make me happy. And I know she's right. If I had a bajillion friends, if I could drive, if I had a job, if I got every little thing I asked for, I would ALWAYS want something more. She told me that life will only get MUCH much harder and that if I don't learn to daily apply myself to deeply studying Scripture now, I never will. And I will always make some excuse. And she's totally right. This is my down season. A lil over a year from now (and this summer if I go to a camp I'm looking at going to) I will be combatting the world from every single angle. And "cram prep" doesn't work when it comes to spiritual battle. Anyway, wow...another long post. Sorry! Later,
sweetggirl

Long time lurker, thought I would say hello! I really dont post much but thanks for the good times I have here. Love this place..
When I was hurt in that automotive accident my life would be changed totally. Unfortunately that driver had no car insurance and I was going to be hurting for ever.
This was not time for me to start and guess what to do. I had to find a good personal injury lawyer to help me get what I needed. After all, my family was counting on me.
How rotten was it? I has bedridden for 7 months, I had to have constant care and my medical bills went through the roof!
Fortunately, I found a good referral site to help me.
I will post more later this week to tell you more about what I have been going through.
If you need an accident lawyer try the guys at

So I took the plunge -- bought myself a [url=http://www.ordio.com.au/products/Fatman-iTube-ValveDock-with-Speakers.html]Fatman iTube Valve Dock[/url] and I've got to say I am extremely pleased. I actually listened to one at a friend's house a few months back and just couldn't get that quality out of my head because it really truly surprised me. I searched everywhere for a great deal and finally found it at [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Ordio[/url] in Westfield Bondi Junction. I rang them first and asked a bunch of questions and everything was answered to my satisfaction so I went ahead and bought it. Shipping was very fast. Everything was perfect. I'm pretty darn happy and I'm playing it right now. Not sure if they ship outside of Oz but you won't be sorry if they do.
Really happy...

Hi, I'm a newbie here, but I already want to bring all the benefits of me :) So, I want to share my experience with you..
9 days ago, accidentally, i had found the Mobile Phone TV...and I was so delighted with this application
that I decided to talk to you :)
I consider myself a bit of a road warrior. I am on and off jets and through airports at least twice,
usually 4 times a week. I can catch up on news, watch a Discovery program, check up on the stock market or just find something interesting.
The live guide works like cable at home and the connection speed is very good. All in ALL - I RATE A 5 Star program!
but I do not want to leave any links here, so you can email me fairyalexiss@gmail.com
and i will give you the site of this unusual program :)
(but please don't PM me, because it's so difficult to communicate in such kind of way)
so, I hope I was helpful to you)) see you in next posts ..
sincerely
your Alexis....
p.s. English is not my native language, so sorry for any mistakes :)
