i think i may have fallen off the face of the earth for awhile there. 

this is all i know for today:

^"for he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."   colossians 1:13&14

i just know that with all the darkness and sin that covers every corner of this sad world, and all the various manners in which i could've been sucked into a wasteful life of destruction, GOD HAS RESCUED ME!  the filthy rags of sin and sadness that i deserve to wear have been taken and i wear the robes of one who was born into a family of royalty.  i have been accepted into the kingdom of the Most High King.  praise the Lord!

...the end.
