On The Cup
Keeping on the cup is a good sign. Communion follows the right behaviour and doing this -- ritual or not -- an indicator. Days it happens are winners. While the distance between the last time describing trajectory. State of the soul or what have you. Getting away with...

If nowhere else, the catch up is inside. The grieving like growling indigestion in the emotions and deepest. Trying not trusting, lurching about and not resting and reigning.

Paul's following directives about communion are about relating with others and knowing uprightness. Through confession and repentance. Moving straight into the manifestation of the Spirit. Before returning to 'unity and diversity'.
Arguments from silence and doing as often as can. Accepting, not in active 'fellowship' i.e. 'go to church' has me on the solitary and up for this. The intention today and this, the purpose of the post. Help.

Not having a verse or two coursing through my mind is another downer screaming ' oh foolish one'. Turn this on for an hour to tap and what..? Nout doing. Having said this would rather have to face the loss and lack.
There are no substitutes for having something that registers. The pump pulls up from enough input. Need much to get something. Not -- has me floundering and knowing so.
Babblin-on. Know so and says what? Rectify and blast-off fueled soon.
