wounded hearts

This weekend God spoke to my heart through my housemates, and through some ideas from Dr. Dan B.Allender and his book The wounded Heart, it was about the truth of a people who are wounded, and out of our wound we wound others.

Part of our story of redemption is the wounds we have suffered, or inflicted along the way. To avoid the truth of those wounds, is to not tell the whole story of grace, and it doesn't allow us to be real with one another, or heal. As Christ's people lets be a people who really enters into the wounds that have been inflicted by the sin in our world with one another. Let's listen to each others real stories, and enter in with our brothers and sisters. I think that God has called us to that, I think this, because he entered into the pain of this world with us in the life of Jesus Christ.

Thank you father for your presents all the time, thank you. Amen.

but seriously... this is a very good point... it's very true. when we are hurt, we consciously or unconsciously at times pass that hurt on to others. We need to be open, honest, and vulnerable to God, others and ourselves concerning our hurt, so that we may be healed of it, and so that we won't cause harm to others anymore... and then actually be a COMFORT and source of healing to others that might have been hurt or are hurting!

He desires to know what I think and feel.

The kind of man that I want to marry, will respect and value my thoughts and feelings about life, and just stuff. I know, that at times he won't meet that need and I know that I won't always meet his needs the way they should be met, but here's the thing, If we are both pursuing God we can know that He is the one who is going to meet all our needs. I can know that the man that I am married too is not perfect yet, and that God is still working to create the man that he intended. what does it mean for husbands to respect their wives, I think it means, that before they make decisions about things, they should consider what God might be saying to her about the event, or situation. What does it mean for wives to submit and respect their husband, well I am not entirely sure but, maybe part of submit and respect for husbands is letting them know by your actions that you trust Him to make the final call, and in that you submit your will to his, or the truth is when this happens and...

Letter of Complaint

1200 Rollingridge way Bloomington, In 47408 August 30, 2007 Mr. Willy Wonka Factory owner Willy Wonka’s Candy Factory 777 W. Sweet dr. Friendship, Maine 24268 Dear Mr. Wonka On December 25, 2006 I purchased a package of your full course chewing gum for my 12 year old daughter. After chewing the gum she was swollen like balloon, and a shade of bluish purple, just before her transformation she said that the gum tasted like blueberry pie. I am assuming that this would make your product defective. I took, the package of gum, and my daughter to your customer service counter on December 26, 2006. The umplumpa on duty told me that I would not get my money back, and that my daughter would have to be pumped to let the juice out. Because of this incident, I will not be purchasing your company product in the future. If there are any questions regarding this letter I can be reached on my cell phone on any evenings: 812-340-0807. Sincerely, Liana Vela

To Kill a soul.

When I was young I think everything was new and it was easer to look with hope on the future. Now on the other hand, it seems it's harder to do so. I don't think I should be having this issue. If it weren't for a walk with God, my soul would be dead right now. These days I feel like my insides are holding on by way of the tips of my fingers. I feel my mind slipping slowly from the edge of the huge ravine that doesn't have an end. Though part of me, probably the part of me that God occupies, says, "let go trust." I'm not sure what it is I’m holding on too still. Maybe it's marriage. I don't want to lose hope for that though. The vast abyss of adventure calls to me to let go. When I was young, I would climb the best trees in the neighborhood. I often tried to find the highest limb I could jump out of with out hurting myself when I landed. I loved climbing and jumping out of trees. There was always that moment just before I leapt of, owo...
