i hope that tells you a little more about me. now i want to know more about you! so answer this one:
do you have any irrational fears...that are, of course, rational to you?!
I found your blog through a Google search and I have been really enjoying it! I converted to the church in '03 when I was 17 and was baptized just before I turned 18. Due to SERIOUS opposition from my family (and my own issues) I went completely inactive in '06 until just recently when I felt myself being pulled SO HARD back to the Church! I'm still working things out, and my hubby has a lot of questions, but he's SO open-minded and open to the Church and I just want to be there SO BADLY!!!
ReplyDeleteI admire your conviction and your gumption! :o)

I am so happy that you found my blog! it can be really hard to start going to church again... my husband went through this when he was about 19, he struggled with going back because of fear of what people would think about where he had been, and what he had been doing. turns out, everyone was just happy to see him, and welcomed him back with open arms (as i am sure they are doing for you!)
ReplyDeletemy suggestion would be to just start going to church. your husband will see and feel the spirit through you and you will be able to answer all his questions with guidance from the holy ghost. be open, honest, loving and not pushy and he will begin to understand on his own time...it took me 6 months of actually going to church, but years of knowing about the church to finally be baptized. express to him your feelings, and invite him to church when you are prompted to do so...it will all work out! :)
you are awesome! so happy to have you as a reader!
irrational fears? weird things happening to my children that only happen in movies, like wild animals or aliens in the house. don't know how many scenarios i've imagined. silly, i know. but there's nothing rational about irrational fears!
ReplyDelete...carrot top? too funny.
