Walking my leg better.




 The other day my leg was playing up; maybe I had a trapped nerve as there was pain travelling down my leg.  I am a great believer in walking to cure a leg.  Of course this will not always work for everyone, but if you can catch the problem early I believe this is the best cure. So I went for a walk with a friend.  The walk is referred to as, ”going round Byes.”  That is because we pass Byes Farm on the way.  The walk is about two miles long.  I had to use a stick and requested my friend to slow down.  It was quite painful until half way when things began to improve.  There was no worsening of the condition and by the next day my leg felt fine.  Two days later I went for an even longer walk and although exhausted at the end of it I felt fine the next morning and if I had had the time to spare I felt I could have had a repeat performance of that longer walk.  There has been rain and other commitments since that so I have not been able to go for a walk and my leg is beginning to complain that it has not had enough use. So if you have minor aches and pains do some exercise and you will find things improve and you have no need of the doctor.

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.

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...
