Car problems

I set off for short mat bowls but my car was making a funny noise. Couldn't get hold of the garage so will see to it tomorrow. so an evening in with the P.C. Is my life being taken over by the internet.Is it a government plot to keep us all in our homes out of the way?
With this title I had better tell you abut the preaching. I am training to be a local preacher with the Methodist church in the U.K. On Sunday I shall take my 10th service. I knew I would like it but I didn't realise just how much I would enjoy it. It takes a lot of hours work to put a good service together and I don't fancy doing bad ones. I don't want to bore people. I want to inspire them and help them get nearer to God and do the same for myself. If you want to see some of the kinds of thing I do take a look at the following. http://www.squidoo.com/MaryMag and
http://www.squidoo.com/BiblePeople I want to get Bible stories on the web because so few people know them any more and they can teach us such a lot about the important things in life. And not just from a narrowly religious aspect. Would love to here from folks.

How do you cope with depression?

There are two main types of depression, reactive, which is a reaction to your circumstances and endogenous, which is a part of your makeup and not entirely affected by your circumstances. I get the second type. When I am depressed I like to sleep a lot, this is probably not a good thing as depression can lift if you do not have extra sleep. It is all very well knowing that , but acting upon it is another thing. Exercise is also beneficial. Some sorts of depression can be lifted by taking these measures, but some people need medication. You need to get to know your doctor and develope a relationship with him/her where you feel you can trust their judgement. Do look for help as there are lots of possibilities out there. It is not good to spend long stretches of time on your own. Talking with other people will often help lift your spirits, especially if they are people who have gone through this experience themselves. Maybe you need to join a self help group. Avoid people who tell...

Life after death

When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.

Section A

I've posted off my work for section A. Now to get on with B. Onward and upward as they say. It does feel good to have completed A, progress is being made.I think my tutor is more nervous than I as to the outcome, but then I am his first student. We are learning from each other.But then that should always be the case. It's an adventure we go on together.The course seems to be suiting me alright but I feel there are a lot of potentially excellent local preachers out there who are put off by the study. Something should be devised to include these good people, we can ill afford to do without them, especially as the numbers of ministers is dropping. What did Wesley do? You don't need a degree, or even A levels to preach. You need a call, and a close relationship with God.
