Even if someone comes at me unwarrantedly with a chain saw or a meat axe, I try and examine myself . . . to learn what, if anything, God would have me learn from the incident.

Well it's nice to know you have such ample time for reflection and self-examination, when you are directly faced with the impending chain saw or meat axe....

Anyhoot, time for bed, dear brother in Christ. Good night — and God's blessings be with you!

Likewise . . .

And . . . as to time . . .

Haven’t you heard . . . time slows down at such moments.

LOL.

Have usually spent so much time over the decades philosophically/theologically pondering endless scenarios . . . there’s probably been one reasonably similar to most any situation I’ve ever found myself in. So, it’s not like I’m starting out starkly fresh and ignorant about everything in the situation . . . no matter how novel or unprecedented.

MORE importantly . . . my priorities are pretty Biblical from a very deep bone marrow level out. When one’s priorities are sorted out, lots of novel situations become relatively easy to navigate.

Besides The Lord has promised to never leave us nor forsake us and Holy Spirit has been promised by The Lord to lead us into all truth.

It’s not like our brain has to feel naked with no guidance or direction whatsoever—regardless.

I can’t tell . . . from your post . . . though I HOPE you’re not still angry with me.

I pray you have had a great rest, sleep and restoration overnight.
