Figuring out the blog
Hi Jessica...I know what you mean about having troubles with the blog. I just spent 1 and 1/2 hours blogging about how to deal with harsh people, and I saved it as a draft, and now I can not figure out how to get it out of the draft and into the blog! lol....Plus, I just accidentally discovered how to read your comments! This is a learning experience for sure. I haven't talked with your dad in while, but I did call that store where you can get used but restored computers. They don't have any laptops in right now but you can get put on an email list so they will notify you when they do get some in. They do have a lot of desktops though at prices that depend on what is on the computer I guess. I saw some for 131.00. That is not bad. I am sure it is for the cpu and monitor. I will check again. I know he prefers a laptop. I don't know if Grandma has checked the blog out yet either. I will have to check with her. In the meantime the two of us can plug along and figure it out...lol...

Good Afternoon - It would be really neat if you could figure out how to post your blog on how to deal with harsh people. I have not really had to deal with anyone that I felt was overstepping that line since our study so I haven’t had a chance to try out my new perspective. It is nice that I have been able to prepare myself on how to think and ask for help before I am actually confronted by those people.
I talked to my Dad on Tuesday and he was listening a cd’s set that I had given to him on shame. When I first started attending Cedarbrook Church the minister was holding a seminar called “Healing the Hurst of Your Past”. I thought it would be perfect for me to go and to learn to deal with some issues that I have been facing. When I was in the classes I really learned a lot about myself and how I hide my pain. I learned and remembered the difficult events that had hurt me growing up. I addressed those issues and prayed about them and realized that I had pretty much been lying to myself for a long time to hide my pain. Because I never dealt with those small issues they just kept popping up and making me angry. Just uncovering these lies helped me a lot. After I was done with the classes I bought the seminar on CD and passed them onto my Dad. I think he experienced the same thing I did. It was really neat to hear him talk about some of the same things I had been hurt by. It made me realize that for the most part we all have hurtful things happen in our lives but how we overcome our trials that make us who we are.
I was doing some shopping online and I bought a book from Gloria Copeland called “To Know Him; Beyond Religion Waits a Relationship That Will Change your Life.” I remember you guys talking about how spiritual Gloria Copeland was and when I read the description I knew that this is book had a lot for me to learn from. This is what it says about the book –
Product Description:
God desires your companionship and longs for time with you. He has made a way to a rewarding and fulfilling relationship like none you've ever known. Now it's up to you to make the effort to go beyond religion and begin enjoying what it truly means To Know Him.
This book will help you discover how to:
• Recognize His voice when he speaks to you
• Talk to God comfortably, without fear or anxiety
• Share your heart with Him honestly and openly
• Find answers to your specific questions
Well, hopefully Grandma will be able to join us on your blog and we can set up our next meeting. I will talk to you later.
Jessica
