If you were to write a book about yourself what would you name it?

Nobody Cares, but Here's a Book About Myself Anyway


But in all seriousness, I'd have no idea what it'd be about. Seems like if I were to write a book about myself, I ought to wait until I'm older and have more to write about that's actually worth writing about.
Though, maybe I could write about what it was like to have a disabled/beridden stepparent and the impact he had on my life.
 
I would call it"Suffocate" its a combination of my panic disorder Ive had since high school and the way alot of people including my family have made me feel controlled,suffocated by expecting me to be a million things but myself ,on the other side of that is this glorious true freedom i found when I met God at 17 and how he made me feel so loved and free to be me.

I think your life and what you have seen living in the community and church you live in could be quite interesting. I would imagine that you have a perceptive that many of us will never have the opportunity to see.
 
I had a pastor/degreed Christian psychologist tell me that when I wrote a book about what was going on then in my life, blah, blah, blah.....I told him I would never write about it no matter how it turned out.
 
The Title - John 14:21 Amplified Bible (AMP)

21 The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I [too] will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. [I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.]

Yeah, it does give me a certain perspective.

I have to tell you, that today we had the most wonderful worship service I've been part of for years. We're a small, but active, church with about 80 people regularly attending our services. Our new pastor is Liberian (our last pastor of six years was Nigerian) and he had a friend visiting. They've known each other for years dating back to their elementary school days in Liberia. They're both Methodist pastors now, and the visiting friend gave the sermon. It was really more like a tag team bringing God's word. What a wonderful message the two led us in, filled with passion. The congregation was filled with more "Amens" and "Hallalujahs" than I can remember in a Methodist service since I was a kid. It was like we were "shouting Methodists" again. Nearly the entire congregation on our knees weeping during altar call. I usually have to go to an AME or AME Zion for that kind of worship...and I do, because we routinely haul each other around to our various worship services and bible studies.

Thank God for the African church!
