Poor old Liz

I wonder how many people think, "Poor old Liz, messed up two marriages and now she's living all on her own in a flat." Sounds awful doesn't it. However it's not like that at all. I've never been so happy. It could be disaster, it sounds like disaster, but one person makes the difference - God, as seen in Jesus. The one who is appalled by my sin also loves me so much that he has died for me and has forgiven me and given me a very worthwhile life. Part of that life is writing to you now, telling you how wonderful He is, because I want you to find his love too. If He can still love me when I've broken His command telling me not to commit adultery, then He can also forgive anything you have done. If you are broken down under the weight of your wrong doing, if you hate it, you are in just the right frame of mind to want to come to Jesus and have that burden rolled away from you for ever. I was a committed christian when I went wrong. You would think that was unforgiveable wouldn't you, but no, His love is greater than all our sin. He loves to bring us back to Himself. Just ask and find out.

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...

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.

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.
