About Me

My photo
Hi I am a Christian, a nurse, the mother of two grown children and two grand daughters, one grandson, and 3 dogs. I love people and have a huge heart. So why am I blogging? Well I've been told that I need to publish my writings. This seemed to be the easiest way to do that. Also, I want to get out there and live life to the fullest. Empty nests are great because now I get to explore the world. I'm starting right here on my computer. So come along with me and as I learn to fly we'll soar together!

03/31/10 conversation with cheryl


The comfort is that He knows. There is nothing we have done or will do that He doesn’t already know about. And He loves us still. That is miraculous, glorious, and worth every tear I’ve ever shed.

Yes
Absolutely yes

Just reflecting and always looking at my relationship with Him.  Trying to see Him more clearly and draw closer to Him.
Often it requires me to assess and weigh my values.
Not a bad thing.

Review to make sure priorities are right.

I would walk in the garden with him in the cool of the night if I could.  But right now seeing through a glass darkly will have to do...

Sharing your experiences, thoughts, feelings with Him and others is your gift. Always put it to words.

Ok thanks.  I often feel like stuff is too dark or introspective for people and wonder.  That’s why I send it to a few who I know might be able to give me some constructive feedback.
Not necessarily on what I’m writing about.  The Holy Spirit brings these things to me to deal with...
But for the writing of it.  To see if it’s clear, or if I am communicating effectively.
I welcome your thoughts, and not just what may be the good things, all of them.
Jeanne

You go places that I am terrified to put to word. It’s still too painful, too dark, too buried within me.  I think most you have shared with have confirmed how beautiful your writing is … don’t stop J

I hope so.
I hope it is helpful not just to open up the deeply buried stuff and look at it in light of Christ’s love for us.

I often wonder.= Other than having others relate on some level or other, or apreciate the writing, is it of use for the Kingdom?
My expression of these things is a purging of sorts some times for me. 
There is a lot I cannot share with others, yet.
But sometimes I think that showing sharing and communicating them helps others look at their stuff and not be so afraid of it.
That can be healing – or the first steps towards healing, often.

All I can say is Thy Will be done Lord.
Let it be unto me as You have said.
And abandon any desire to hide it any more.

Sheding light in those dark places has helped me to see that they are not quite such monsters as they had become to me.
And that His love is sufficient for even the dirty rotting filth – the unclean painful stuff that I have tried to bury without success.
Yeah, His love is more than enough to bring healing and wholeness to my insanity. 
They do not disappear, I still have to deal with them.  But it is in light of being loved and with tender care now. 
He is a gentle physician and comforter.  His compassion overshadows all of the fear and gives me courage to face it. 
And not only that, but to share and expose myself to others to show the way if I can.
It is good.

Ok.
Perhaps the words help to draw out the poison and make looking at the wounds a bit easier?
I hope so.
