New
Hi,
I'm kind of new to this whole blogging thing. I don't always know what to write. I'm slowly learning how to step outside my confort zone in a lot of areas.
A while back I ( along with the Good Lord, ) decided to leave the church I was currently attending because I felt like I was just going through the motions and then I was having trouble with gossiping when away from church.
So we ( God and I, ) decided that I needed some one-on-one time with Him. Sort of like a remedial class for slow learners. I started out my lone journey well enough, but alas it slowly went downhill. I got lazy. It was during this time that I came across this book called " So You Don't Want To Go To Church Anymore," I believe that God wanted me to read that at that moment. After reading it things made more sense to me and We started over.
Now I'm thinking of returning to the Church I left behind, but wonder if that would make me to much of a Hypocrit. I'm not sure what to do, but I know God will provide the answers all in due time.
The Job that I've held for the past three years as a Tax Preparer is over because I can't afford the cost of the continueing ed. classes to return this year-and really I'm glad. The tax seasons are only for a few months and there are so stressful. I would much rather have something longer term that payed a healthy wage-enough to make it ahead in this world, but I suppose everyone wants that. I would just like to do what I never conpletely have done before-Take Care Of Me.
Okay, go ahead and start laughing. It's just that I've never had my nerve-up and niether did my parents. Of course I'm talking about driving. My Father suffers from P.T.S.D. ( Post traumatic stress disorder ) brought on by his service to our country in Viet-Nam. There for his way of teaching made me more nervous than worries of wrecking. My Mother worked full-time as a L.P.N. ( Lisenced Practicle Nurse ) for thirteen years, plus helped raise myself, my Brother ( who also is learning right along with me ) and my Sister ( who is now our teacher-and a good one at that ). My Sister is the youngest of the three of us and I am the oldest. So I am learning how to drive a car from my Baby Sister. I am confident that this time is my time, it's the charm. I'm shooting for a date early next month to finally, after all these years, obatain my drivers lisence.
I am hopping and praying that I will soon be able to finish my, now two books, that I'm working on-get them published and eventually move to Scotland. Well, I can dream can't I.
Well, Thanks for reading-until next time...
May God Bless You and Yours
