Errors

I read my posts to try and make sure I don't say things wrong and still I do (say things wrong , I mean). I know what I mean when I write them. Sometimes what I am thinking and what comes out on paper do not match. I really do not mean to be offensive. For example my last post, Jeremy cannot do anything, I meant do anything alone, without someone by his side. That is my perception and it seems the more I try to explain myself the worse it gets. I was putting 4 x 8 sheets of plywood on a ceiling. this is a difficult job to do by yourself. But I found a way. And I can do it. A friend stopped by to help and he did. He kept me from getting up and down the ladder for everything I needed. It was a great help. I wanted to say that I think Jeremy is the opposite. He probably would not try to find a way to do it himself, but enlist the help of others more easily than I would. When I reread my post, I certainly hoped he never reads it. It certainly came off sounding wrong and a lot different than I intended. I know that is not the first time I have written stuff that sounds very different than I intended. I really do like to write when I have a thought in mind, but I hate it when it comes out wrong. I think it takes a lot of experience to write and not make errors like that. I probably need to take some writing classes.  When you talk face to face you have a chance to see the expression on the other persons face and it will clue you in that something didn't come out right. But writing, you don't always know and maybe sometimes never when you made an error. I wrote a lot on the job after becoming a lead and tried very hard to be politically correct and non-offensive in the things I wrote. I would write and read, rewrite and read again trying to be o so careful, but it happens. I guess that is why in this world, we need to have a forgiving attitude, because sometimes we say or do things that are wrong and hurtful. I heard a minister one time tell how he would write his sermons down, very carefully and would read and rewrite and read again trying very hard to not be offensive. He would only read from the written sermon,  he would not stray from the written lines. He did not want to offend.  As hard as I try I still mess up at times. I do not want to offend in the things I write and I do try and read and correct things before I hit publish. In our society it seems to get harder and harder to say anything and not offend someone. I guess that might be why I feel more comfortable in writing in a blog. Its my opinion and people reading it are on my page. Some people probably don't care, but I do and do not want to offend because of a miswritten word. If I write something from the word of God and interpret it correctly, that's OK, because if I have carefully divided the word of God and it cuts someone, that is what it is suppose to do. I do not want to offend because of poorly chosen words.  If God's word convicts, that's OK.  God bless, LVZ.
