*Doh* Ok, i'm gonna try to use some decorum here but i'm really inwardly stompin my feet right now. Grumbled and moaned all through making that chart. I do not like this, sam i am, i do not like green eggs and ham!!!!

The silly thing is, i basically try to do all the things on the chart anyhow, so why am i so bent about this???

To be honest, i wasnt even sure i would continue w/ this program. I seem to getting worse instead of better.

Oh well, got a phone call here and totally lost my train of thought anyhow, you get the picture.

Why are you getting worse instead of better?
Is it because those things you keep stuffing in the closet so you don't have to deal with them keep tumbling back out?
Gotta deal with them sooner or later sis.
It does get worse, before it gets better.
Someone shared with me it's like having a scab that is healed over the cut before the dirt has been cleaned out. The scab has to be removed, ouch! The dirt removed, more ouch! Then salve spread over, which the Lord brings, and healing. :)

love you my friend.

Psssttt chelle can I share a secret? The first time I encountered the charts...I too threw a fit! I mean how dare I had to do homework...and had to make more time to do more than I already had been...but then the second time through the steps I decided to do the charts...and found that the charts help me stay focused...place things on the chart that you want to do more of...such as read 1 chapter of the Bible in the morning and at night...and if your doing that already maybe add a 3rd reading or something. Don't make the charts too difficult. Start out with just a few items...ones that are attainable goals and add to it as you go along.

You can do this chelle...but you have to choose to do it. Healing will only come if you choose to want the healing...no one will force you...but God will help you if you choose for Him to do so.

Praying for you.

luv ya
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
