I am on stepping stone number 6. I am going to be starting the Miracle Grow Mind Project. I am trying to get my problems resolved which ever way God wants them to. I need to become close to GOD. I am working on my chart. Reviewing the point system and things I will do. This will be a challenge to complete all 10 categories. But I have faith I will accomplish it.

Oh my . . . remember the "grow" part. There are things we can't do, but we need how God has us growing.

And I'll "bet" that while you are looking at a child, you can't see the child growing (o: So, while you are actually staring at yourself, you might not notice yourself changing, very much (o:

But there are very good activities a child needs to be doing, in order to grow and develop right. Not bonding with a TV set and a pile of toys and the peer influence of ones who have not been brought up in how to love, to say the least (o: A child needs to have wholesome activities, in order to develop well. And these include doing things in a caring relationship with adults who know how to love, so the child can learn how to relate in love.

And there are a number of us guys who have never really gotten started in love. So, emotionally, ones of us "might" be no more than three years old . . . maybe zero years old, if we have not been born again, since we can not start to grow as kiddos of our Father's love, unless we have been born. So, there might be a guy or two in an adult body, who is not even a two year old in knowing how to love.

And yet, a lady can be so unconditional in how she loves her children, and yet suppose she can expect so much from her man who is . . . needing help to discover how to love. And this takes growing. He does not need to isolate himself. I have been a loner, myself; I have become able to do nothing and have nobody for a fair amount of time, but then I can do things and be with people. But God requires me to get with people, in order to learn how to love them. He wants me to take a personal interest in each and every one.

ang the miracle grow project is really an important step. Just remember to start with small things, and grow the chart as you go. Also, if you need to start with less items and add more then do so. The idea is for the chart to add some routine and stability to your mind and life. It will help you, so make sure to do your best with it.

luv ya sis
