Thursday, June 02, 2005 PersonalitiesI think that the way people share has to do with their personalities. Especially when it comes to speaking about the Lord and 'deep stuff'.The wives of my two brothers can speak very openly about the Lord and what He has done and is doing in their lives, also my husband's sister finds it a natural thing to speak in such a way. (Carol - I reckon you'd get on really well with them) But me, myself and I, can at times feel uncomfortable. After the morning service, I stay for a very short time as I usually have my Mother to take care of and I often have a tribe coming for lunch and need to get away to the oven, at least that's the excuse that I use. When I attended the Ladies' Bible Study there would be very deep and meaningful conversations and often these conversations would carry over to the after church chit chat.In my work as a medical receptionist, I have found that there are opportunities to speak at length to some of the patients, but of course I need to be careful being in a work situation. My husband is amazing the way he can go up to different people and have an indepth conversation after just meeting them for the first time, he seems to know the right thing to say when a person is upset or grieving. I prefer to let him do the talking, I'll give the person a hug as words and me get muddled. But sadly it is true that we seem to talk about the weather from every possible angle and the current 'hot spots' eg Schaphelle Corby, but it is not too often that we truly give of ourselves in conversation. At present my husband is going through Baptismal Classes with five of our church folk. He has thoroughly enjoyed the 'one on one' with them as they ask so many questions and he is able to share with them. All five will be getting baptised by immersion on the 12th in the afternoon which is pretty exciting in our little church. 'Til next time ..... # posted by shellymac @ 9:01 pm 0 comments
