I was overly transparent this morning;) Guess we never have to worry about sincerity together!<BR/><BR/>You are so gifted in the way the Lord leads your heart and how you transcribe that into what we can relate to. Thank you for being a vessel and for lifting hearts all the time...you serve the Lord so beautifully!<BR/><BR/>And just for the record, I think you happen to be the coolest and best mom ever:) Wasn't that my kids drooling out the window as you passed us after a little visit to the ice cream stand??? Go, Mom, Go!!<BR/><BR/>Great post,Sharon. <BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>HeatherHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089748446952275001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445254029919038335.post-67260367247526856242008-09-17T13:53:00.000-04:002008-09-17T13:53:00.000-04:00Sharon, this is just beautiful. Just yesterday a ...Sharon, this is just beautiful. Just yesterday a friend and I were discussing this very thing - sincerity. I'm going to have to direct her over here to read this.<BR/><BR/>I have just ordered Lisa's book and now you have increased my desire for it even more. It sounds wonderful. This quote has really spoken to my heart, "...we still pretend. It's just less complicated, really. Impersonating a superspiritual person fluent in Christianese stops the intimacy of a face-to face conversation with someone. But it can prevent other things, too. It can stifle tears that need to flow, hands that need to be raised, prayers that need to be prayed, and decisions that need to be made. We trade reputation for repentance, and it costs us a lot. It costs us an intimacy that is sweet, both with our heavenly Father and our earthly family of God. It is a hard habit to break and can be a humbling experience."<BR/><BR/>Sincerity is a gift when discovered and shared. Thanks for this post.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely His,<BR/>JoyJoyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00010498759199040612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445254029919038335.post-46336888038096618102008-09-17T13:43:00.000-04:002008-09-17T13:43:00.000-04:00Sharon,That was beautiful!

It is a blessing and truly refreshing to be around!<BR/><BR/>I too think way too much is shared on blogs and pray that God speaks to their hearts about privacy. <BR/><BR/>You are so thoughtful and I for one appreciate that more than words can say!<BR/><BR/>Praying your knee is feeling better :-)<BR/><BR/>Hugs and His love!<BR/>JillAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17247824698674815568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445254029919038335.post-65843102277551700242008-09-17T10:30:00.000-04:002008-09-17T10:30:00.000-04:00Thank YOU for you sincere blog today.
