I have been a story teller since I was a child and I haven't stopped. Recently, I've moved to non-fiction writing. I have no idea of why I started writing non-fiction because it requires footnote, which means research. I don't mind the research, but it is difficult to stay current in today's connected world. I wrote non-fiction as a journalist,... more »

    Until 2 weeks ago, I had not logged onto my shelfari account for over two years, so I just saw your post. I haven't read redemption, but i'll add it to my plan to read list.

    You have summed it up in a Nut Shell, drbarbera. I am in agreement 100%.

    No matter how immense or unsolvable our situation may seem from the vantage point of the earth, they all seem small and manageable from the vantage point of the heavens. Our Heavenly Father is more than able to deal with anything we are confronted with in life.

    All I can Do Is Stand a powerful book that just came out. You should treat yourself to this powerful read. Im glad that you will be here more often. Im so sorry for the pain we have to go through in this life. What matters is that you are still amongst the living, giving, sharing, caring and loving. Mark Stevens is an awesome man as well

    Lord take this cup away from me....
    "I can't son, it belongs to you"
    But Lord this cup is too much for me to bear!
    "You can handle it, Jesus drank from the cup"
    But Lord I aint Jesus!
    "But He lives in YOU!"
    But Lord I am weak!
    "His strength works best when you’re weak"
    But Lord have you seen what's in my cup?
    "Yeah I know I put it in there!"
    But Lord there is sickness in my cup!
    "And I called you to heal"
    But Lord there is confusion in my cup!
    "And I called you to teach"
    But Lord there is pain in my cup!
    "And I called you spread my Word"
    But Lord why do I have to drink THIS cup?
    ”Because I want you to act like my Son!”
    Last question Lord....Does everyone have to drink this cup?
    "Everyone has to taste their reality"

    Suffering from Sarcoidosis for over 10 years hasn't been easy. I have been so depressed at times I have wanted to kill myself, but the Lord has shown me a new way to deal with the pain, I don't take pain meds because I have a fear of addiction and I like to keep my mind clear. I use my pain as a motivator, I wake up in the morning and I talk to my pain, I get in my pain's "face" and I get up and minister to people in worst shape than me every day....I couldn't do this without the Lord's help! Jesus is my example, in the garden of Gethsemane Jesus struggled to...but the way He overcame was by accepting His destiny and obeying the Father.

    I have the Cross of Redemption at home. I have been able to read some, but not all of the essays, yet. Is the one you referred to on my wall to do with Nationalism?

    You are in my prayers my friend whole heartedly. I really don't know what to really say to you because I feel so bad for you but I do believe that you are fighting and still here for a reason. You will and are beating this thing.

    I Love you

    I love you to the moon
    I love you to the end of the planets.
    I love you till there's no love in the equator
    I love you knowing nothing could be greater
    I will love you from now until decades later.
    Let me love you now not later
    Let me love you to
    Northern skies
    Western hemispheres
    Without worries, fears or cares.
    Allow me to love you
    Until you care
    Open up-heal from old wounds
    that you start to share.
    Our love is genuine-it can't compare.
    Now your love has opened
    Like a brand new gift on Christmas
    See what happens when you allow
    Someone to love you.
