I have walked through some *doors of opportunity* kicking and screaming and ranting .... "NOOOOOO I do NOT want to go there ... DON'T MAKE ME!"

.... funny thing about this resistance ... it works ....

the next door is WORSE!

Being a believer is the hardest thing I have ever done ...

There is a myth amongst my agnostic or atheist friends that to believe is to have total confidence and knowledge of everything pertaining to God.

It is a myth.

My knowledge of God has increased thorugh this trial. My trust in Him has increased enormously.My confusion regarding some parts of scripture and my Walk has increased too.

No doubt this has been a spiritual awakeing for me, not in an academic sense but in a real living witnessing way.

PEP you rock.

I;ll be honest - during the pre-seperation stage when I was frustrated, as I hadn't told you guys the whole story as per Sprint's request, and often got frustrated with your posts to me, in the - BUT YOU DON'T KNOW THE WHOLE STORY...but I kept reading them, and realized whether you knew the whole story or not doesn't matter - you are KEEPING me focused on ME and the changes I need to make - NO MATTER the situation or the story...

And to you Pep - I THANK YOU!

And...teehee - you posted to one of my suggestions "brilliant" - if you are being sarcastic then I am laughing cause my humor is twisted, but if you are being sincere then I feel very flattered LOL go figure
