wow… i prayed to be a woman of GOD and did i ever see the hard times in my life. i began to wonder why i had asked … “make me a woman of GOD.” sometimes it is all about surrender. it is not about understanding the reasons but just learning to trust and obey. and surrendering the things … even the things that are the most important to us. i will be praying for you.
(2) I walked into the house of a man who molested one of my girls in youth group knowing there were 4 other guys in his living room with him – knowing he had a history of violence with knives/ guns. I confronted him and told him he was wrong. The cops got there as I was leaving.
1. On Wikipedia, courage is to act rightly in the face of opposition or shame. I think one thing that I’ve done that’s courageous is defending someone from a “bully” even if I’m not good friends with the “victim” of the bullying.
2. On Wikipedia, boldness is the opposite of being shy. I can’t think of one specific moment where I was bold/not shy, but whenever I meet someone new, I try not to be shy, welcome them, and try to become friends with them.
