Thanks for visiting my diary. I've been journaling since 1984 and have chosen to share some of my entries online. They are not all positive thoughts, but I hope that reading them might be a blessing to someone who needs encouragement.
If you are just coming to my diary for the first time, please read my introductory entry, where I share some background that is important if you plan to follow this diary regularly.
Please also visit my music page, where you can hear samples from my debut CD, I Believe, which features songs written based on experiences shared in this journal.
Hi, Lord. Thank You for helping me through last week. Thank You for sending James to talk with me and pray for me. Thank You for continuing to speak to me and for giving me the energy and desire to come back to You.
I've been thinking about Mrs. Barker a lot lately. She was my history teacher in seventh grade. I always looked up to her. She was always calm and sensitive to my needs and feelings, and I always felt like she cared about me. I could never tell her why or how much I appreciated her.
When I took my education class last semester, I thought about her more. I want to be a teacher like that. Lord, I want that kind of stability and consistency in my life.
I decided to write Mrs. Barker a letter last night, and I told her what I appreciated most about her. Lord, sometimes I have wondered if she gets discouraged. She ministered to me in my time of discouragement, and I want to give that back to her. I'm not there physically as she was for me, but I hope that You will use my letter if it can ever serve in her time of discouragement. Thank You for giving me the chance to know her and to learn from her. Please help me to grow in my walk with You so that I can minister to people the way she has ministered to me.
