here's a NEW tactic i tried today:
i forced someone to memorize a verse while I was with her today.
she said she couldn't memorize. i showed her how. I picked one that she needed to make a part of her spiritual armour to beat off all the firey darts of negative self-talk and constant criticisms of her mother. (Zephaniah 3:17)
it was pretty sweet for her. a few tears. she got it down and was able to repeat it to others as they joined us for lunch and when we were saying goodbye again too.
Seems like i'm crying a lot with people these days. The tough old nut has cracked.
everyday I spend time with people getting to know them and praying with them i am SOOOOO thankful for loving, encouraging, supportive parents who are not psycho.
seems like everyone is screwed up from their folks.
thank you mom and dad for being (mostly) normal.
