Turbo Greek is not for wimps

i am in Turbo Greek now and that means six-eight months worth of Greek done in Two Summer months. It is extremely demanding but i am learning a lot. The family is doing good and it is hot as hades up here. My car a/c does not work and i am learning to get to work like a nomad (no work shirt or shoes on the way there). i am trying to get a job closer to the house because gas is outrageous.


i think our entire family is learning what it means to go and take nothing with, not even an extra tunic.


Mark 6:7-9
7 And He summoned the twelve and began to send them out in pairs, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits;
8 and He instructed them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a mere staff--no bread, no bag, no money in their belt--
9 but to wear sandals; and He added, "Do not put on two tunics."



The LORD provides our daily bread:

Matthew 6:11
11 'Give us this day our daily bread.

i have heard it said that He provides just enough for us to not be tempted to steal to eat and not more than we need so that we do not forget the LORD as the nation of Israel did when they were prosperous (unfortunately, we forget the LORD also when things are well and remember Him when times are hard). Thank God that He is merciful and loves us as a Father would.

Here are some new pics:
