Is there anything about you that you care about other than yourself?
and
Can you at least explain on your blog why it is that you have all these comments about how wonderful you are! How magnificent! Yeah you have cancer but do you really need THAT many people saying you are just great?? Are you insecure? It seems like it's a Hall of Fame for YOU.
I am happy to explain: 1) I don't write the comments; I just post them (both positive and negative); 2) The purpose of my blog is not to honor me, but to honor the One who lives in me and died on the cross for me; 3) I am one of the most secure people I know, both because I know who I am, and I know Whose I am; 4) One of the greatest blessings of being a Christian is that in addition to my birth family and my family by marriage, I have a family in Christ. These comments on my blog are simply the family of God reaching out in love to their sister.
I truly strive not to take myself too seriously, but I take my faith very seriously. The comments these loving people have posted on this blog are humbling, because I know that it is Jesus Christ that they see when they look at me. All the honor and glory belongs to Him.
I am not a great person; I have a great God.
I have been praying for you. Jesus loves YOU, and He died and rose again so that you also might have new life in Him. Click here to read about what Christians call "the gospel," which means "Good News." Your attitude must be sincere--from the heart. Being a Christian is not what you say or do, it is who you ARE (the saying and doing will follow). If you need a Bible, Harvest Community Church will give you one. If you have not visited us, you are welcome.

............and now the martyr!
Mindy,
Good response! I feel so sorry for someone so small and cowardly that they must hide behind anonymity to post such cruel and mean-spirited comments. But such is the state of a lost person without hope and most of all without joy in their life. I join you in prayer for them.
It's obvious the journey you are on will have these moments of ugliness that will only make the victory all that much sweeter!
God Bless,
Bob L.
Let me provide testimoney that Mindy is all that is written on this sight and much more. It seems that many people are understanding when there are sights that lay out our faults or those of others but seem uncomfortable with the opposite.
Mindy is not perfect but she serves a God who sees her perfectly becasue He created her that way.
Mindy has touched many peoples lives and is facing perhaps the biggest challenge of her life. She could be saying "woe is me" and "why me" and how would that help her or anyone else. This life is hard and it is arrogant to think that some people deserve tough times while others are entitled to a free pas (and that is what you are saying when you say "why me"...why not you!)
Mindy....continue to let your light shine. Because we know that you are not the source of that light...just a great reflecter.

Well, Mindy, if you were really into yourself, I think you would have a different name for your blog. Oh, something like, . . . "Me" :)
