It might be well if we stopped using the terms “victory” and “defeat” to describe our progress in holiness. Rather we should use the terms “obedience” and “disobedience.” When I say I am defeated by some sin, I am unconsciously slipping out from under my responsibility. I am saying something outside of me has defeated me. But when I say I am disobedient, that places the responsibility for my sin squarely on me. We may, in fact, be defeated, but the reason we are defeated is because we have chosen to disobey.

In order to keep busy I have been cleaning and organizing my house.
Trying to get on a cleaning schedule.But I have also been up to the
following:
spinning some brown corriedale on my wheel
knitting up some dishcloths
knitting a afghan for my sister in squares that I will stitch together
making weaving sticks for christmas presents
reading all I can about backstrap looms and native american basket
weaving my 2 next things to learn
as well as the normal blueberry picking, bread baking, etc, etc...
Looking forward to hearing what you all have been up to.
Blessings,debra
