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.
Last night I went to the Many Moods of Christmas with my cousin. Truth was one of the groups that was there. They were good!!! Gloria read this poem about a person who visited his old great-aunt at Christmas after she had had a stroke. It was talking about how he didn't want to because he didn't want to face the pain of seeing someone who was once so full of Christmas so sick. It was really good. He ended up having a very special time.
Then truth sang this neat song, but before it someone read this thing about how Jesus was not a great singer or writer or anything like that. "He was just an ordinary person, and he took time to talk to people when he could." That really touched me. I know that I don't have to be superwoman, but while I was there I wanted so much to sing. I know that if I am meant to do it, it will have to happen in God's timing. But the waiting is awful.
Today Bill Gaither taught Sunday school. He talked about depression, and I am in another one. He said the way to get out of it is to give to someone else. Well, I want to. I want someone to count on me again the way Dieter did, but I don't feel like anyone does. I feel like if I died everything would just go on without me. You know, people would say, "Oh, well."
