This one I have heard often and it does frustrate me some. I am so passionate about God and the things HE tells us in HIs word, and I preach it with passion and I live it with passion. Which is fine, many love it and are drawn to God that way. BUt some feel that the way I preach it and live it, I am judging them and condeming them, and they feel I push it on them and they wont hear a word. Yet I find most that are drawn to my words from God, arent drawn to others, cuz they said they needed someont to present it BOLDLY to get it, instead of all the tiptoeing. So it seems I am sent to minister to some, but some are for others to minister to. I do pray and I try to prsent the message in the love and truths of God as I feel them, as He feels them, in kindness, humblesness. But Jesus never tiptoed with the gospel either He just lived and spoke it and let the chips fall where they may. It was in love, but still just truth as it is. HE never said I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON HOMOSEXUALITY BUT I CANT AS I DONT WANT TO OFFEND ANYONE.. same with lying, stealing, abortion, any o fit, adultry.
Truth usually will confict a person living in sin. its supposed to. But not to leave in guilt and shame, but lead to repentance, confession and a turning from sin and to God. IF one has no clue they are doing wrong, why would they stop?
So I know to be bold, and yet not sound judgmental, but some feel condemend in their own heart and they wont hear me, cuz the condemantion comes from them. Those that are seeking more will hear my words as they are Gods words.
But I know God calls us to different gifts and we each have a purpose and a way of reaching others that will be just great for who God sends us to speak to. To realize that not all are in my vinyard, was a tought one to learn, but its ttrue. Some are for me, and some are for you. For those seeking BOldness, they will hear my words. For those seeking it softly prsented, they hear my husband. Thats his gift. ISnt it kool how God works??? Amen I just pray that those who start to get offended will realize the passion that I preach from is not to condemn them, but lead them to Jesus who will set them free. I cant preach without passion as Passion is just how I feel. No tiptoeing of the gospel from this gal. nope. Its great I have the right husband to send the others too. God is so good.

The biggest misconception that people have about me is that everyone thinks I have a great relationship. The irony in it is that my husband is a great guy and I am a good person, I think. We love each other so much, but somehow that isn't enough. We fight a lot, we argue all the time, and yes when we have make-up sex its great, but other than that we truly suck being together. So ,yeah, that is the biggest misconception people have about me. Go figure!!!

wow, that is really hard. I think perhaps it is that since I only teach in the mornings, I have all the time in the world and can do anything I want, that I am a lady of leisure. But my days are really full.
Plus, people who aren't teachers don't realize that being a teacher is like being on stage every day for hours at a stretch, when you can't relax and just be yourself with your peers. It takes a lot out of you.

That I am obnoxious and cold hearted. I often get this because I tell it like I see it based upon my personal experiences. Most don't agree with my line of thinking. I would just like to comment that I never lie, my experiences just vary from others, and more times than not people judge me based upon their philosophy, book learning, and own guilt complex rather than experience.

That I'm shy.
People who don't know me very well always assume that I'm shy, so they try to be as nice to me as possible, but it feels like patronizing :[. It's horrible.
And then I really *do* get shy and nervous, because it seems like everyone's sorry for me for no good reason.
I mean, I'm a little shy when I'm meeting someone new, but normally I'm really extroverted and cheerful. I guess it's just the first impressions that count--they see that I'm reluctant to talk to them at first, so they think that I don't like talking.

Because I am a Christian, most people think that I am suppose to be prefect, and others think that I am suppose to be the kind of person anyone can run over and take advantage of.

That I'm happy. Many people view me as "preppy," "perky"--the girl that's "always" happy. It hurts that only a few people know the truth.
However, I'll admit that, partially, it's my fault--I hide my problems well. But I'd still give anything for peace.
