Mike Hammer

Well, well well...hmmm. I enjoyed Mike being so open with us last night. It takes alot out of someone to stand in front of a group of people and talk about the deep dark issues and i respect him for that.

Now, let me say this i am not a guarded person, i am very open to God working in my life, even if i don't want him to. last night i didn't particularly want to go into deep thinking mode, but i figured maybe God wants me to look at some things. In the end i just felt horrible. I have an amazing family, parents who while i was growing up were there, loving me and playing with me, taking us on vacations. I was born into a family with no expectations put on my life. My parents just have always wanted what God wants for me and they leave that up to me to decide. So taking me back into my childhood last night i could only smile at all the good memories i have. i tried really hard to think of maybe some bad things that are effecting me today, and i couldnt because there arn't any. And i am not saying this because im covering things up, no i just honestly didn't have a horrible childhood, i had no pressure to be the perfect christian girl from my parents, yes we were made to go to church, but i loved it! I mean i think Pastor Mike had good intentions in doing this session with us, and i am sure some people really needed it in class last night.

In fact i think some people in that class last night need hardcore counseling because of past family issues. I on the other hand am blessed, and i can't for the life of my try to pull things out of my childhood thats bad, because there isn't any.

Now i am not saying that Pastor's Mike's Bridge weekend wouldn't work for me. No i think it would be an amazing tool, something good for anyone to go through. We all i have wounds, mine just arnt from childhood. I would thank Pastor Mike though for using this tool and bringing it to our attention so that we might be able to tell others about it.
