Dark Glass Ponderings

Clearly the response to my post on depression indicates that there is a need for tackling of this sensitive subject in a loving way in the Christian community.  If you shared your struggles, thank you, and know I am praying for you, too. I think one thing that's most important as people who struggle with depression its to focus on the good that's going on in God's kingdom.  Thank you, Lisa for reminding me of that.  Lisa is doing an excellent series on Ordinary People, Extraordinary God.  It so helps to meditate on these things.

My July project: I've decided to participate in Novel Track project in July through ACFW.  This involves setting a goal of at least 10,000 words.  Since we are taking July off from homeschooling I am setting a goal for myself of 10,000-20,000 words.  My novel is women's fiction about a woman leaving a cult...dealing with depression is going to be a major part of the novel.  I'm sharing this because I feel writing can be therapeutic.  Maybe I will explore this here at some point.
