I don't know how it's going to work out but it is because there is always a solution. There is always a solution because God is the one who has all the solutions. So I am praying that He reveal the solution to you. Thanks for sharing. I love seeing what He's doing in you :)Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487333102992922268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3143721330372955631.post-21115928747857099362017-03-19T13:21:25.220-07:002017-03-19T13:21:25.220-07:00I understand your being nervous about giving peopl...I understand your being nervous about giving people words. I hear what you do regularly and it absolutely terrifies me. I don't think I could do it. Just last week I felt like I should say something to my own grandmother and when I did she gave me a weird look, politely smiled, and nodded her head. I don't know. I have an awkwardness. I sent a text message yesterday thanking someone for something nice they said to me because I felt like they needed to know that they made me feel better and I instantly regretted sending it. It seems like in polite society we have been raised not to bother each other and that is cemented deep within me. You are very brave, but I also want you to know that you never have to be afraid of giving me words. I need as much help as I can get. I wish more people would tell me things, but I suppose that's not fair since I'm not going around telling them things either.<br /><br />I am a firm believer in declaring yourself to be something even if there is no proof that you are that thing. I have been telling people that I want to be a writer since high school even though I've barely written any words. In the last few years I have been saying that I am a writer more and more and everything else is just stuff I do to get by. I don't know if I can stop over analyzing. It's the way my brain was programmed, but I'll try to work on it. Don't be surprised if some of this ends up in a future post. I hate to waste any words that I somehow managed to cobble together into a coherent thought.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11555486880067264556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3143721330372955631.post-51229037785011082082017-03-18T22:17:12.552-07:002017-03-18T22:17:12.552-07:00WoW!

I do that some too! I am honored that you mentioned little ole me in your blog and more so that you valued the word I gave you :) I really was nervous about giving it! I understand about wanting something so bad and being afraid to believe for it because the fear of disappointment is too much. <br /><br />There are some things that will remain a mystery to us about God. Some things He will reveal as we get to know Him better. (He shares secrets with His friends). Sometimes He just wants us to trust Him to embrace the mystery. You're on the right track....keep going :)<br /><br />oh...I've been listening alot to a guy by the name of Steve Backlund. He's the "declaration" guy. God had told him and his wife that they were "authors". Neither of them had ever written a book. God had told them to begin declaring that they were authors. They questioned God and asked him "isn't that lying". He asked them "Is an apple tree still an apple tree even if it doesn't have apples?"<br /><br />I tell you this as if God has said you're a writer (author) then just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean you aren't one. Just something to think about and ask God about :)Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487333102992922268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3143721330372955631.post-203162046896705562012-02-22T16:50:33.769-08:002012-02-22T16:50:33.769-08:00I know you don't care, and are totally going t...I know you don't care, and are totally going to write off what I am fixing to say, but you need to get rid of your TV and video games.

That's no reason to quit trying to find men you can relate to. That is exactly what the enemy of your soul delights in doing...keeping you isolated from others. Making you believe that there isn't anyone out there who understands or has gone through what you are. The truth is that previous statement is a lie. There is not a person who has solely gone through something that no one else has. God wouldn't have you live here and not have a friend for you. Ask Him to send you one. He will! I will be praying that for you as well so WHEN that friend comes along you will KNOW that God hears and answers :)Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487333102992922268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3143721330372955631.post-22903764886404117392012-01-09T06:57:26.554-08:002012-01-09T06:57:26.554-08:00Terry,

So I guess we can agree to disagree, I can do that, I'm an adult. <br /> As far as the CERN thing goes, I know very very little about it other than the fact the super colliders are cool and anti matter is scary.

This may sound really bizarre but I think you're really in a very good place. I know its very uncomfortable and vulnerable but I see God's hand at work in your life. You're desire is to write. I believe God put that desire there. The enemy is always out to destroy...always. Pursue your dream. So you have a setback. pickup and start again. You only fail if you quit trying! Don't worry so much about the subject matter.....just write about any and everything. Feelings are just that "feelings". They are very fickle and are NOT the truth. I would encourage you to research what God says about you and believe Him and not the crap the enemy has been feeding you! If you don't have one, download a Bible app when you get your new phone. I find I read the Bible way more now that I have that option. I can read it anywhere at anytime! I LOVE IT! If you want some help on where to start let me know.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487333102992922268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3143721330372955631.post-25630321921351511562011-11-02T19:18:06.270-07:002011-11-02T19:18:06.270-07:00That sounds about right.
