How do I blog?

I've written several posts, only to delete them or save them. I want to be real, but yet not have the whole world feast on my deepest most intimate thoughts.....

So I'll leave you with this:

I'm struggling. my sister nin has a song on her blog that speaks very well how I'm doing. You could go there and listen to the song. I love how real it is.

I want to be totally honest with my readers, but there are things in my heart and in my life that are just not meant to be shared right now. Which is hard for me.

Fear is my biggest enemy right now.
i'm tired of it in my life. I'm searching for the redemption that Jesus gives. Healing and restoration.
i wish i could be light and fluffy....just not there. just can't do it.....

You are so much stronger than you know. I have utter and total faith you will grow and flourish through this fire. Like the Phoenix you will rise from the ashes. I love you.

A young man at our church was baptized tonight and before he did, he joined in our men's class; we discuss the struggles on how to be Christian men in todays world. Anywho, we had a great time of sharing with him and trying to open his eyes to how wonderful the walk with God but also how there's the spiritual war going on. How we will sometimes fail and fall and struggle with the simple things because life is just like that. Satan will tempt and torment us all the more as we are dedicating our lives to be on the opposite side. And life isn't always perfect either.

But we have someone who helps us out, who helps us defeat sin in our own lives and helps us to strengthen each other. And our spiritual family helps us with the load. "A rope of three strands is not easily broken." Take a look at a big thick rope sometime and count the strands. Then remember that you are just one of those, but your spiritual community who surround you are all the other strands helping you pull that load.

God bless.

I think you are light and fluffy. I appreciate not reading your most intimate thoughts, cause it makes me desire to seek you out and find out how you really are:) Some day soon!

I love you because you aren't light and fluffy. I hear you on wanting to guard what and with whom you share though. Thinking of you as you process and continue on the road to healing.

you are wonderful and i agree with R - you are loved because you are YOU and that may not be light and fluffy. Even though you can't share every single thing right now, i will keep praying.

GOD knows your heart and your mind...and that is the only ONE that needs to know. I have always appreciated your honesty..but there are times when it is just you and Jesus climbing the mountain; and that is OKAY! Prayer, thoughts and blessings (PRR in Port Moody)

Hi Sarah,

It was so great talking to you; makes me realize how much I miss you! I've caught up on your blogs now; great encouraging "faith" reading for me - even through the pain. I look forward to staying in contact with you. God is good - all the time... even when we're not looking! Praise Him!

Love you always,
