i do have friends. i know that. i have so many people that care about me and believe in me. sometimes get carried away in self doubt that i forget to see the gifts God has given me. im doin better -i jes had to throw a baby fit. i would of responded sooner but ive been working alot lately, which is good. i like my job its hard work and i work hard at it. it makes me feel better. i think im movin out of the halfway house soon. me and my roomate might be gettin a new place soon if everything works out. so pray a lil bit about that, please. anyways i wanted to tell you all about something thats been exciting for me...


i went to barnes and noble the other day with a friend. got an expensive journal called 'the purpose driven life.' anybody heard about it? it went with abook she had and she let me borrow. its a forty day project where you read chapters out of the book and then go to the journal and gives you things to write about. its Christian inspirational focused on find the purpose in your life. the book provokes that it is 'revelation' and our purpose in life is to teach people of the glory of God. im gonna finish it in 20 and then give it to my grandma for her birthday because she was the only one in my family that believed in me. she always knew what i was capable of and never gave up on me. the best thing about it so far is that it helps me to realize what God has done for me and that i can return the favor by sharing the things God has revealed to me. if i focus my life on this, everything else falls into place. it prioritizes whats important and helps me to let of guilt and shame that destroys me. God will always have another oppurtunity waiting for me. i can do my best by not hating myself for the things ive done and allow Jesus to work in my life so that i can free myself and find peace. all the things i love and need were always there he jes helped me to see that. but now i can give my life and will over to him by surrender and work out the reservations of resentment to myself and others now by focusing on the gifts God has given us. pretty cool to me.

I've read "The Purpose Driven Life" it is pretty good. It's from a Protestant perspective, but it's still good. If you get nothing else out of the book, reread the first line of chapter one. Peace...

[homeschoolmom]

I am praying for you! I have found that the best way to meet good people to be friends with is to go to mass and meet people there. Also, if your church has a prayer group or something like that, maybe you could join up with them.

Let me know if you need help. My husband is a good person to talk to. His name is Frozencell. PM him if you would like.

God bless.
