Go...I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited for your business! God IS good and many are praying for you. You deserve to be on magazine covers. I know I've told you that but only because it's true. I'll get to say "I knew her when!" I wish I was rich! I'd buy everything you make just to put it away for future grandkids.<br /><br />What a wonderful testimony. You are on the right path. But sure as shootin', the second we say we're going to do a thing right (I said it myself two weeks ago and you wouldn't beLIEVE the challenges that hit me...wait...yes you would!) we're smacked with a 2x4. Just pick up, dust off, clean up any messes, apologize where it really is yours and sometimes where it's not, and keep moving. You are an inspiration.Robynn's Ravingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619286823020924023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318043669925287430.post-63081644687202139982009-07-31T09:30:06.954-04:002009-07-31T09:30:06.954-04:00Yayyyy for your business!!

I started the forgiveness one myself and found myself broken in the first chapter.<br />Tristian will be reading it next. Listen to the music while you work, it really does make a difference.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631892016483916544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318043669925287430.post-29304925008754302282009-07-30T23:01:57.924-04:002009-07-30T23:01:57.924-04:00Congratulations on your sales!

You cannot force another person to see or understand something he doesn't want to see, but you can harm and exhaust yourself trying.<br /><br />Also, it might help to remember that, in responding to his cruelty, you are prolonging and participating the same dynamic. Every time he provokes a response from you, he has "won" - he has got what he wanted, which is to have you back in there with him, reacting to his provocation, and knowing that he can still manipulate you. He may well believe he is right - there are lots of sincere yet horrible people - but that is not your responsibility. Your responsibility is to yourself (and your daughter).<br /><br />Please forgive me for "preaching" without knowing the situation.<br /><br />And, as a PS, - a writer I find helpful to read is C S Lewis; not only Narnia (though the joy never ends) but also "Mere Christianity" & the like. For me, he is the most persuasive of Christian apologists, and I feel very soothed whenever I read him.Callanithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17300250520752815151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318043669925287430.post-2356537634600256552009-07-30T09:13:57.319-04:002009-07-30T09:13:57.319-04:00Thank you for sharing this testimony.

I have been telling all of my friends about this wonderful boutique. <br /><br />I am working on a little healing right now, too. God is so good and He is the only one that truly matters. I will keep you in my prayers. If only life would be perfect after we found our way, but it never will be until we are standing before God in heaven.<br /><br />Have a wonderful day!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13729746508094507948noreply@blogger.com
