So my dad is preaching this Sunday...and we're heading down. I'm a little nervous, just because I've been a blogging fool...(I am just being sarcastic)..and have put my heart out there on the church website for my dad's church. It was fine when I was on this side of the computer...now the introvert meets the church. Kind of like that movie, "Meet the Parents"..it's "Meet the Church" time.
Maybe I could wear a wig, strange clothes and sit in the corner. With a box of Puffs on my lap...I might give myself away.

Ha! Let me be the first to comment...I wonder if anyone else has ever done this on their own blog..might be a first.
Anyway..back to the shameless first comment...
I don't regret one minute of putting my heart out there..God gave me a special freedom..I'm
just plain scared. I'll fess up.
My name is Sheri and I fight fear and anxiety. Daily.
Hi, Sheri. We stand with you in your fight against fear and anxiety, and know you go surrounded and cushioned by the impenetrable LOVE of our Abba.
A new 'what-if' might be the possibility of finding this this could be like walking into the midst of undiscovered family... I will pray that for you - and that He will show you evidence of how He has used your heart and gift for writing to encourage so many others...
Amen Vonda.
Can I be honest? I have felt this exact same way coming back into our church scene- scared, fearful and full of anxiety. This weekend I felt like all eyes were on me thinking- What's that crazy girl doing back at church. But an even stronger voice inside my head said- "You are here to worship me, you can not change what others think of you. God loves you and that is all that matters." Everyone has their own problems and their own issues- maybe they are all thinking we are looking at them like they are the weirdo's.
Don't worry Sheri, you are amazing. You will do fine, everyone will love you.
Clinique has a great new waterproof foundation- and I advise waterproof mascara to go with your kleenex~jk
Again I will share with you my favorite quote- "A problem not worth praying about isn't worth worrying about."
Nehemiah 8:10 The Joy of the Lord is your Strength.
Go in JOY sister! We celebrate your Dad with you-
Thanks, guys..a new family..I like that.
Sheri, by sharing your heart with the people in your dad's church, you have been a blessing to them and have honored your dad. I will be praying for you this weekend.
