JPS: Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear;

ecce non est adbreviata manus Domini ut salvare nequeat neque adgravata est auris eius ut non exaudiatHE aquí que no se ha

acortado la mano de Jehová para salvar, ni hase agravado su oído para oir:
Those were some other translations of the same verse. I couldn't believe there were so many. It really makes you wonder how much translation plays a role in the meaning of sentences. Here is why that verse is important to me.
I have been going through a really rough time financially as of late and my bank account was in the red and I didn't even have money for gas for work this week. I didn't want to borrow from my friends so I tried to not spend money on anything and actually try to be responsible which is how I got into the problem to begin with. Well in the mail I got a letter from my Tia Mati. Outside it said, "A FROG to help us remember to Fully Rely On God." The card had a bunny and said "Hang in there" and inside it read to trust in the Lord and she shared Isaiah 59:1 with me. She said "He hears everything you pray and think and will remember you." This card was so unexpected and the $100 check was such a much needed blessing and I know how much it means when they don't have extra money. Life has been full of blessing lately and I am so very thankful for them. Life is coming together and I'm starting over.
Sunday I had brunch with Ericka. She took me to HEB to get food and medicine. She loves to eat well and enjoys organic food and such. I am still not that healthy, but hopefully she starts to rub off. We watched We Are Marshall and talked about her week alone at home since her housemates are out of town on a cruise for the week. I've been on a cruise before. Here I go with another week of work, hopefully it goes well.
It is premiere week and I'm excited about all my shows starting up again, but know that I'll be watching a lot more TV than I used to watch. So here are the shows I'm excited about. Prison Break, How I met Your Mother, Heros, Grey's, Private Practice, the Office, Journeyman, October Road (January). Wish me luck.
Family Guy Salutes TV.
We have ants in my house. I feel like it might be my fault, but I don't know exactly why. Today I put my hand into a box of crutons to sneak a snack and my hand started to tingle and was I felt the small injections of pain I pulled my hand out to see it covered in ants. We need to spary, but I don't want to put the cats in danger, so I need a plan to get them out of the house.
