Decided I needed a break from the battle so as to remember the foundational stuff---we can get back to the rest next week, Lord willing. Looked at a few Psalms and just considered what is eternal and important--and will be important next week, next month, and 100 years from now--rather than what grabs our attention and often steals our joy today. Then we went back to listening to Calvin talking about the knowledge of God and how we can obtain it, and how sinful rebellion suppresses that knowledge.
