Okay then, Praise God, thank you Jesus!
I am mopping up chapter 20 and should be starting on John Chapter 21 on Wednesday. Lord willing.
I am super excited, and would love to celebrate, but I have found out so far that no one really gives a crap.
But I care, AND AM SUPER DUPER THANKFUL! And, I am going to celebrate, not sure what I am going to do yet, but will let you know on my summery of all I have learned.

Brick wall
I am little disappointed because I thought that I would have been done by now and just brushing up on my chapters.
I slammed into a brick mind wall when I came to chapter 17. I tried and tried to get this chapter down and spent most of December working on this but to no avail. Not to say I don't have some of it, but to do close to 5 chapters the month before, and then, barely get a chapter in a month and a half could be disheartening to say the least.
So this what I did. I went around it and did 18 and about halfway through 19, and even these were a bit harder than the first 16 chapters. Why? you tell me. I'm still trying to figure it out. It could be that because I am getting so close to the end that I am stressing out and maybe trying to rush it and working it in the flesh and not trusting God enough.
Although I was on a medication that made concentrating on anything for more than a few seconds nearly impossible, but still !
There were times that I wanted to throw my bible across the room in frustration, I'm sorry I even thought that way but I did.
But I am still going ahead albeit a bit slower, I remember when I said I would be happy to get past chapter 12 cause I thought the chapters would be shorter. Wrong! I missed chapters 18 and 19, which are a little over 40 verses each and some of those verses are voluminous.
I am not complaining though, but thank the Lord that I am drawing near the goal line, and I long to get busy with his new gift and pray that I can be a blessing.
well, what am I gonna do with chapter 17?
Don't worry I most likely will be digging into that lastly.
I'm tired and going to bed, I know this is not that interesting of a post but more like a smoke ring, to signal you that I am still around and going forward, pressing toward the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus...... Join me!

Chapter 11 realization
In one of my earlier post I knocked chapter 11 as being kinda boring. upon memorizing it and reviewing it multiple times, I would like to recant that, as I now find it a lot of fun to review and is nowhere to being close to boring.
I must confess I was going through some serious battles at the time and I can see some of it manifested in my post and my opinion.
I just happened to be in the dross pot at the time, and things were bubbling and overflowing.
All I can say is that God is merciful.
