Well, it's the day after Labor Day. I have been back from my pass for two days now. I got to talk to pretty much everyone I wanted to. I had like 4 I didn't get to. :(
I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has been praying, calling, writing, donating, while I"m here. It has meant so much to me. It really keeps me going on my bad days. I have all my letters hanging by my bed. They make me smile. THe conversations I had this weekend really encouraged me. It was really nice to know I haven't been forgotten about. I miss everyone a lot. It's been seven weeks since I got here! Can you believe it?!
Not much is going on right now, I"m in the middle of the renewal of the mind sections. We take lies we believe about ourselves:
i.e. my feelings don't count
and find the truth in the Bible:
i.e. with God's help, I can own my feelings and learn to express them appropriately. I am valuable and important.
We then, put them on index cards and read them repeatedly throughout each day out loud to ourselves. ANyone can do this! I really encourage you to try if you struggle with "self" issues.
I also found out today we have to train for the M---- 5 K that is on Oct. 1st. I am not happy. I am not a fan of working out. I love to swim laps but I hate running. Pray for my patience. I'll need it.
I'm still doing okay relationally with teh girls. I still keep to myself a lot though. In this house it's so hard to do that. I'm sure you can imagine living with 30 girls.
Prayer Requests:
-my healing
-my friend at the Nashville house
-my patience
Also, I need to buy a medication next month. It's $80.00. If anyone can donate please send any amount to the address listed at the top of the blog. Put a note that it's for it. Make the check out to me though. Any amount is helpful. Spread the word please!
I miss everyone!
Anna
