Gods Union

1 Corinthians 10:13No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.So I’ve been gone for some time now. It’s my lovely wife. She’s mentally ill and has been for years now. She has been diagnosed with 3 mental disorders arising in her at a very young age. She has endured so much.

I remember doing this and that, I remember all those who came and go, I also still know the structures their halls and all their doors and all the wonderfull people I have met along the way. From the Catholic church where my mom use to take me to the Baptist church where I was pulled to accept our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to the non denomination Vinyard church where I first raised my hand in praise. Their still there all of them their…

Hello, Rick.  Care to talk?
At 3:11pm on February 4, 2011, Margie said…
I still don't know if you were serious about wanting feedback. But I thought I'd recommend "Painless Writing" by Jeffrey Strausser. It's a fun, easy read. Also, if you want to improve your writing, I suggest you do more reading. "Hatchet" is a good story, and on Brett's list of books. I used to read a lot as a kid; that helped me a lot. Hope that helps.

They're not my kids, Rick. They are pictures that my sister sent me of kids, well boys, doing the silly things that kids do. [She doesn't know them either.] I like that kind of thing. I do have a son. He's 12 years old, but I've never posted a picture of him.

Please feel free to share.
