I wrote a guest post on Christina Fender's Website that appeared today.
Its VERY personal and not something I intend to share on my Mary Poppins blog, but would be more than happy to share with those of you that know I'm not all smiles and sarcasm :)
Had I Known Sooner

I admire your openess and transparency. I think sometimes it is freeing to let others know our struggles and why we are the way we are. For a long time I thought I had to present myself as perfect, being a pastor's wife, I'm supposed to be, right? Wrong. I am no different than anyone else. I get angry, I get depressed, and I have issues...just like everyone else. After we started a church (that closed its doors after 3 years)we sunk in debt and are now trying to get out of our home (which is practically falling down...we can't even get a loan to fix it because of our financial situation). I sunk into a depression and am now on meds for it...ahhh, I am so much better now! All that to say, I know where you are coming from. Life is hard. But there are people out there to support you and love you just the way you are! :)
So proud of you!! :)
Thank you for your bravery and authenticity. We are all what my husband like to say, "Cracked pots."
Sending love,
Wendy
husband likes to say. Man, I hate spelling mishaps.

Sherrinda I love that you shared your story with me too. It seems we have more in common than I would have guessed. It's hard to stay positive...but it's a must.
And you are right Wendy...we are mostly all cracked pots.
And thanks Jess :)
