I am SO glad you have found a church home, as we used to call it. It is easier to fight the battles with fellow warriors by your side! Pain is not fun, but it is the purifier the LORD uses. You have come so far, dear heart! Keep up the good work--and don't fear to ask for help when you hurt. wE are here for you! All my love---janey in person (oops, bumped the wrong key!).

Simple, but not easy, because we will continue to fight the old nature until the day we see the LORD Spirituality is NOT easy.

I've been struggling with a "dark night of the soul" - different from the usual depression - for a couple of years. These wisdom statements will definitely help. BTW, I clicked on your name to see your old avatar - glad I did! Thank you for posting the 10 wisdom statements, Kathleen.

The Wisdom Statements are like having a contract with yourself. A very very good idea. As for allowing God to do what He does best, well, that's the HARDEST thing for most people TO do. You have, finally, truly given yourself to God now. People forget that God never promised that giving yourself to Him would lead to everlasting happiness RIGHT NOW. Just because you have, doesn't mean your life will be sunshine and rainbows from here on out. In fact, it may even be MORE difficult, depending on the lessons you need. But that's what God is for, to provide you with what you need when you need it, and He will, even if it is as simple as an unintended detour, a smile from a stranger, or a cool breeze. Therein the everyday miracle. Enjoy your new life my friend. And there you have it. The Wisdom Statements are like having a contract with yourself. A very very good idea.

]]> Comment on Controlling Your Emotions Through Expression by Queenbeenan http://kafleen.wordpress.com/2009/05/25/controlling-your-emotions-through-expression/#comment-149 Queenbeenan Wed, 07 Oct 2009 21:56:33 +0000 http://kafleen.wordpress.com/?p=68#comment-149 While reading this, I had the most bizarre thought. I have a "friend" who is mired in all kinds of psychological buffoonery that she puts herself through, and despite the best attempts by those around her to help her find a way to learn to cope with her situations, fix the issues she's having, etc. she takes baby steps, then loses entire pathways of progress because of nonsense she just can't quit doing. Most of us have decided she has an addictive behaviour pattern going on. I'd love to see her try something like this. Not that I could get her to, I've suggested other such things and she shoots them down entirely. The bizarre thought I had was that I realized if/when I ever have you to visit, this friend of mine will be exposed to you quite often. Now no offense (LOL) but you have a way about you, a way of not taking no for an answer, of getting right into someone's psyche and making them face their truths. It would/will be very interesting to see the two of you (both Cancers) butting heads. It might actually help her. I've heard of this too, both ways, positive and negative, and I believe I have seen reference to a similar Smile Experiment. I even remember something about someone doing an Anger Experiment in the same fashion (which got them injured-LOL). While reading this, I had the most bizarre thought.
