A deity

Apparently, I have achieved diety status. Sweet.

On another note, I have decided to pass the Jeep on. No, I did not buy the Trooper I had considered. Instead I went for a 1988 Toyota Camry from my brother. It's clean, in good condition and only cost me $800. (and it gets 32 mpg!). As of yet, I have not sold the Jeep, although it is officially for sale. I know, I know, I just lost SO MANY cool points. I might have been able to retain a few had I purchased another SUV, but instead I traded all my points in for a 4-door sedan.

Some people have asked why I chose to get rid of the Jeep and I must say that the answer isn't exactly clear. In other words, I don't really WANT to sell it, but it has been made clear to me by God that I NEED to sell it. Whatever He has planned for me, it involves dumping all debts and packing away the cash. Not only that, but as I was telling a friend last night, I have known since I first purchased that Jeep that it was a gift from God himself. I could not afford what it was worth, but God made it possible. That being so, I don't want to be someone who takes a gift from God and harbors it to themselves with a death grip never to offer it back to Him. No, I'd rather be someone who accepts the gifts from God and freely offers them back to Him in thankfulness for what He has done.
