| I find myself asking for forgiveness a lot!
It affects every aspect of my life.

| At one time I would have said religion or my faith had little influence
on me or my life.
Now, I have trouble filtering out what is not affected by my faith.
It guides nearly every decision and nearly every choice I make. It
affects my relationship with others. It influences my perception of
myself. It colors my world. It is as integral as leaven in bread.
Peace,
Richard

This may be a gross analogy but here goes anyway.
When my wife had a hysterectomy back in August the doctor
said that the tumors that they removed had started to wrap
themselves around other internal organs and it took them
several hours to get everything untangled.
My faith is similar, it is difficult to tell where my thoughts
leave off and where the spirits begin (I hope it is always this
way). I don't think I could separate my faith from me right now.
It permeates all that I am. It influences every aspect of my life.

Ed,
I agree with you. My spouse had been under the surgeon's knife
and guided by the Great Surgeon to heal. Many times, I feared
loosing but my faith has brought her back to me. I know that if
He calls her home, I will hurt but He will always provide for me.
We were ready to give up my mom several times but He gave us more
time with her so that she could enjoy her grandchildren.
I am now looking at my own faith; being doubtful of my ability of
getting a job within DEC.
