Good to hear this, Mash! I believe it really matters, that you decided
give that 10%. I have been doing that too, since then I have been able
to keep my finances in balance. : )

I have had good things going on during last spring and this summer -
and I think it is not over ! : ). I got into some church two years ago
(after 15 years of being away), but last winter began to feel myself
uncomfortable and useless there (it might been because I felt I
couldn't be open and honest there). I felt I didn't go anywhere and
started to pray and search something else. I got touch with a group
that are serious in their following of Jesus  - and what was important
to me - they want to live out their faith also by witnessing Jesus to
non-believers (that has always been the tough part for me). For some
reason they could do that - now I think it is because they take Bibles
teaching seriously and Holy Spirit really works in and through their
lives. That it is something I need too, so I decided to stay with
them. I was honest to group leaders about my past life and was struck
by their acceptance and love (means a lot to me!). Now I am
volunteering in this mission, learning and looking where this all
leads... : )

Blessings,
