the more i try the harder i fall

so i let go and let God do the work.

because the more i try, the harder i fail.

i rather not try, if i try i stop God. But if i don't i let him do a work in me. STOP TRYING

blood oranges

i now have no more reasons to make blood orange gelato.

They are sitting in my fridge. probably growing mould.

or else, they've been thrown out.

my heart is heavy

My heart is heavy oh Lord,

My heart is heavy

it feels like it's crying

and doesn't know how to stop.

we wait for time to pass

hoping it will heal like it said it would

but time and time again

things get harder days get longer.

my heart is heavy oh Lord,

my heart is heavy

let me drink again from your rivers of living water

let me bathe in your presence

i want to soak, to saturate to immerse myself

into the pool that is your presence

into the well of your vast and living water

clear and blue, crystal and pure.

reaching to the bottom looking at the bubbles leaving me

Lord, quench this thirst quench

sing to me as i slowly fall asleep.

blood orange gelato recipe

Are blood oranges in season now in Australia?

Blood Orange Gelato

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon grated blood orange zest

2/3 cup sugar divided, 1 teaspoon and remaining

2/3 cup water

2 cups freshly squeezed blood orange juice

¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

2/3 cup heavy (whipping) cream

Instructions:

Prepare a large bowl or pan or ice water

In a small bowl, mash the zest with 1 teaspoon of the sugar to release the oils

Combine the remaining sugar and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar

Cook until the syrup is clear

Remove from the heat and stir in the juices and sugared zest

Immediately place the pan in the ice bath

Stir the mixture occasionally until it cools to room temperature

Transfer to a container and stir in the cream

Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours

Freeze in an ice cream maker

Transfer to a container, cover, and freeze until firm, about 2 hours

I suppose it's not point just putting it up.. i have to make it.. and TAKE photos too. crap.

Owl City "In Christ Alone"

New Heights - Peaches

pretty awesome song from the jubilee project!

I would like a t-shirt with that print on it

web designers are awesome

of course i wish i could be like them and speak the html language.

but that is one language that i would not understand even if i tried to learn it. Then again it is probably not impossible.

And today is cleaning room day, as i'm sure the next whole month would be as well.

I hope my nose doesn't get already flatter
