I need the gospel of Jesus Christ Himself eachday.

My goodness. Sometimes I wonder when Jesus will come back already. All the worries and problems of this world is really destroying me. It is either that it is supposed to be hard or it is because I am not living and thinking Kingdom minded.

There was no big problem today. Didn't do so well on last week's quiz in theater not the problem. I did another oil change tonight on the Corolla. Filter was almost impossible to take out. I used the hammer and the screw driver method and even though it allowed the filter to spin out 2-3 turns it was still not enough. We pretty much destroyed the filter by the time we got it out.

We had such a hard time getting it out, I kind of suspected something went wrong. I tried to put on the new filter but it did not want to go in. Took a look at the STUD that allows the filter to screw in and it looks messed up.

So right now the car cannot run because we cannot put oil in otherwise it would just leak out. What's the big problem? I need to be back at ISU by Sunday Morning 10am. I commute to school. Not a big deal, I can take the train back and have someone drive me to where I stay grab my stuff and stay with a friend on campus.

When I think about it it really is not that bad. Where it gets tough for me is that my parents are getting old. Money becomes an issue each day. They will not be happy that I screwed up something that needs to get fixed which will probably cost quite some money? I guess it really isn't that bad because it just means my parents are going to get fustrated at me. I am not going to die or anything....

Hmm. I am glad I am writing this through because it helps me think it through.
I must pray that God will provide a way. I must pray that these things will only make me cling to the cross and not uncling myself from the cross.

Jesus you died for my sins. You were crucified so that your righteousness would become mine. Through your death on the cross, I am righteous in the fathers eyes, when you died upon that across you defeated death. You showed the world that are you the way, the truth, and the light. You say that when a man loses his life he finds it. If God is for me/us who can be against me/us?

I need the gospel each day.

Psalms 46
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.

2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,

3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.
Selah

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.

5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.

6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

7 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Selah

8 Come and see the works of the LORD,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.

9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
he burns the shields [b] with fire.

10 "Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."

11 The LORD Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Selah
