But, really, I shouldn't care what other people think- even tho, sometimes I do care. XO<br />@Bethany, if it weren't for God's grace, love, and guidance, I probably couldn't push through.

I am so glad other people can relate to this- sometimes I feel like Im in it alone. I also try my best to be as honest and real as I can be. I hate fake, and refuse to be fake. God sees me for me, no matter what I try to do to hide it, and loves me anyway- in spite of the insecurites and flaws. I figure, I should be real with everyone. And, as a person with a passion and love for God who wants to share that with other people, I love that I can share my story with other people- just for the off chance that someone might be able to relate or get something out of it. It's a bonus when I run into a Kindred spirit. :) God bless! :)<br />@ Anonymous, thank you so much. Sometimes being so honest can be scary, but I do it anyway... I have no internal monologue. ;) And I do so appreciate the prayers! This new adventure my family is on is scary- but good. When two or more are gathered!:D <br />God bless, Siblings in Christ!Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07062145489943628857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405067294434151434.post-12005955994974253672010-10-27T11:24:09.524-07:002010-10-27T11:24:09.524-07:00Crystal, I think it's wonderful that God put i...Crystal, I think it's wonderful that God put it in your heart to share your own personal testimony in such a public way.
