Was this shot in my car while I was gone, with my kid? Hilarious!

I wish I could remember, it was several years ago and I've done about five different Beth Moore studies! But I remember that moment in the video. Maybe Kristy will remember, I hope!

I did that study too, and felt the same as you did.

Unless we're an egomaniac (entirely different problem!) we are hardest on ourselves. I know it's much easier for me to forgive someone else rather than forgive myself. In my head I know that God has forgiven me, and I have to keep repeating that because my heart is stubborn about hanging on to bad things.

And what about when you've hurt someone who won't forgive you? It's easy to say that God forgives you, but when you have someone around wearing their hurt like a badge it's a constant reminder.

I also would rather have people feel comfortable around me. That doesn't mean I'd want them to cuss like Chris Rock doing a stand-up routine though.

One thing that helps *me* right now is my 2 year old. There's nothing that wakes you up more than when you're frustrated and say "damn (insert inanimate object that made you mad)". Then you hear a little voice parroting you....and you have visions of him in the nursery at church cussing like a sailor.

I really wish I could burst into a small study group or a Sunday School class (mine only has 4 people, we started a new one) and ask this very question! Yeah, I said burst....I have visions of myself whirling into the room and setting people free of their fear of the "insignificant prayer request". Like THAT will ever happen- I'm the one thinking "Potty training my son is not as important as 'Debbie's' lost job and crumbling marriage". Which, by the way, we could start a Christian Moms Potty Training Prayer Chain, that would be great!

Anyway, once again I'm so glad I found this blog! Every time I read it I say to myself "Oh yeah! I so totally agree!" thanks Jon!

I am so sorry Helen. You will definitely be in our prayers.

I guess I can be the first to commit- it's easy since I have a 2 year old and I know when his naptime (usually) is. So I will take 1-2 pm central time.

My prayer request is for my father. He has vascular dementia (sort of like Alzheimer's, but with a different cause and not as treatable). Right now he's still not too bad. Please pray he doesn't get worse; please pray for my mother who has to deal with this; please pray for my younger sister who is having a hard time accepting this. His name is John. Oh, and my "real" name is Pam.

Thank you.
