  • Journal Entry for March 13, 2008

    Thursday, March 13, 2008

    I had two doctors’ appointments this week (Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th). 
    My doctor’s appointment on Tuesday was with a gastriologist in Toronto. I wasn't expecting to get too much out of the appointment because I have a fear of needles and she hasn't recommended any test that doesn't involve needles. We had talked about sedatives with her bu...

  • Seeing Him Does Not Sabotage Your Power
    To my knowledge, and according to accounts from the hundreds of clients I have served in rape recovery therapy, there is no single trigger more powerful than this.

    I have seen clie...

  • One day at at a time

    Wednesday, October 1, 2008 | An Inspiring story

    Well I haven't been able to keep up with the site and the groups as of late since I started the outpatient program to quit smoking "weed" and get my head together.  So far, it IS working.  I can see God working in my life every day to help me, through others lives and stories.  I am shocked at how many women have had their children taken away from them and are incarce...

    So, as many of you know, I was baptised at Westside Church of Christ yesterday!
    I wasn't sure it was going to happen, but on Sunday, the 26 April, I was re-born with an identity and life in Christ.  I was very nervous, of course, considering I had to go up in front of the entire congregation (around 450 people), and profess my commitment.  The pastor, Bobby, who I just love and admir...
