For some people, just being able to put their honest feelings out there helps - even apart from any feedback. And then sometimes, a commenter will give you feedback that puts things in a new light. <BR/><BR/>Not everyone is comfortable with sharing personal troubles (anyone reading my blog knows I'm not!), but all it takes is one person to share for the rest of us to see it and say "I've been through that too - I'm not alone!"<BR/><BR/>Of course one might say, "suck it up! Keep it inside, depend on Christ alone!" But we are all of us the body of Christ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10905506.post-76279212675533431692008-01-25T15:22:00.000-05:002008-01-25T15:22:00.000-05:00Yes Dan, and yes Matthew (Daelon) and you three, J...Yes Dan, and yes Matthew (Daelon) and you three, Julie included are some of the most real, transparent, and passionate people(bloggers) I know - You inspire me and I always look forward to your posts!!! <BR/>Not only do we get to watch your journey with you, but we get to see that we are not alone in our struggles and we get the chance to walk alongside each other and encourage one another daily!lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01495924200222561417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10905506.post-88257967828116716942008-01-24T17:22:00.000-05:002008-01-24T17:22:00.000-05:00Hey Julie,I find its very helpful to other brother...Hey Julie,<BR/><BR/>I find its very helpful to other brothers and sisters in Christ to confess their weaknesses, sins, worries, doubts and so on. I've noticed the majority of my posts have to do with me going through some sort of problem. Sometimes I feel like I need to lighten up because people must be getting tired of reading about my frustrations. But as Dan says, it isn't about putting on a show for others, it's about being real.<BR/><BR/>Personally, hearing that people are human and not super Christians makes me feel a lot better! Most of the time it seems like I am the only one who deals with those kind of issues. So by all means, share the bad stuff! ;)Mattityahuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05549061279827942555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10905506.post-75102091727864008822008-01-24T03:55:00.000-05:002008-01-24T03:55:00.000-05:00The way I see it, we can blog in two ways.

I think it's why your blog is on the short-list of blogs I read regularly. You were honest, and you were real and you are great!! So keep at it. You're amazing!Dan Bowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15661120561123767936noreply@blogger.com
