Hurting With Others

It grieves me when people do not belive others really do

care about what they are going through.  I am a genuine

person, and I genuinely care about others.  There are

times when I feel like an ad I used to see as a child.

The one where a skinny guy is standing on the beach,

and a big guy comes along and kicks sand in his face.

I know I can't fix a problem for anyone.  I know I do not

have answers for their situations.  But, it hurts to be

talked about as if I do not exist or am a hypocrite.  I am

human, I do make mistakes.  I do have good days and

bad days.  For those who do feel as if I am acting

hypocritical, I apologize.  But, I do assure you I am the

real deal. 

I know Jesus was rejected, I will be too.  I want others

to know what He does for me, He can do for them.  But,

I guess He is used to rejection by now, so should I.

I find perhaps it is best to secretly pray for people, or at

least ask permission to pray for them, and let them decide

if they want His help through difficult trials.

I do tend to jump the gun... I immediately think others will

want spiritual guidance.  How naive of me, right?

Just remember I do care, and just because I am a Christian

doesn't make me off limits to talk with, or a hypocrite when I

talk with those who aren't.  Also, I can have fun.  I like to laugh.

Laughter is healing for me.  Ok, so off color does nothing for

me, but good clean fun does bring me back to life.

Oh, Debbie.... I am sorry this came out the way it did. There is no excuse for it.
I just was having a bad moment. Sometimes if one person seems to dislike what
I stand for or that I want to be a friend in their time of need, I feel like rejected.
I have to realize I cannot fix anyone and I came to that realization today.
Thank you Debbie for reading the journal, for commenting on it and for wanting
to be my friend.
I know I have others, and I should not let one get me down.
I began reading a book Glimps Into Heaven... It helped get my mind off things.
And then when I felt the old depression setting in, I went to Boggle... That
is a fun board game...makes me use my brain, and keeps me from thinking.

God Bless You.... brdmommy... to GG LOL...thanks Debbie, Love, Judy

Hey Judy...don't ever think that "no one wants to talk to you!" Remember the good friends are hard to find, but when you do they will be friends for life!! I hope that I am considered one of those among them..I will always be here for you, even if no one else is. You can always count on my friendship in good times and in bad!!
