Long time no blog. I haven't had much to say. I've been in the slow cooker for a few weeks mulling a lot of things over. I still don't have much to say except that I came across some encouragement this evening and wanted to post it.

"Just as old soldiers compare their battle scars and stories of war when they get together, when we arrive at our heavenly home, we will tell of the goodness and faithfulness of God, who brought us through every trial along the way. I would not like to stand with the multitude clothed in robes made "white in the blood of the Lamb" (Rev. 7:14) and hear these words: "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation' -- all except you."
"How would you like to stand there and be pointed out as the only saint who never experience sorrow? Never! You would feel like a stranger in the midst of a sacred fellowship. Therefore may we be content to share in the battle, for we will soon wear a crown of reward and wave a palm branch of praise." -- C.H. Spurgeon
