Living a a real relationship with God truly is a challenge when you've been so enundated with religion. It's funny sometimes to catch myself just stopping in the middle of a thought or action, just because that's the way I used to do it for "points!" It definately is a process, but I'm in for the long haul. One thing that is a huge obstacle for me right now is loving people. I am simply not a "people" person. That presents a problem for me because I feel guilty when I don't want to mix in the conversations at work or visit with the neighbors across the fence, etc. And when I try to force myself to be more personable, I feel fake, then more guilt. Performance...yuk! But I know I don't have to figure it all out. If I can just be me, I'm sure Father has a plan and it will unfold. Wow!
