					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I discovered this tonight on the <a href="http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&amp;friendID=61976377">MySpace blog</a> of <a href="http://www.twloha.com/faq.php">To Write Love on Her Arms</a>&#8230; an amazing organization doing some great work for hurting people.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Personally, I think everyone should be in a 12-step program&#8230; we would all learn what it really means <em>to live</em>, really live life rather than rush and fake and anesthetize our way through it, to trust God and surrender our lives to <em>His</em> will, to make fearless inventories of <em>our own</em> wrongs, rather than all the wrongs of all those around us, and to be willing to go to any lengths to live the Big Life Story God dreams for us to live, rather than the little novellas we write for ourselves. We would recognize that life isn&#39;t about getting and having and becoming some kind of perfect. But that it is about <em>relationship</em> and <em>progress</em>; just being less of a jerk today than I was yesterday; less selfish today than yesterday, a little more aware of God&#39;s presence today than yesterday, a little closer to Him today than yesterday, and a little more tomorrow than today&#8230;</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230; this video gave me great encouragement&#8230; And so I share it in hopes it will do that same for you. Watch and stand in amazement at what God will do with a willing heart&#8230; (PS, the woman in the video is Renee &#8212; the reason the founder started TWLOHA, I think &#8212; who is talking about what she&#39;s learned in her two years of sobriety)</p>
