But I've managed to put back on my false smile, and my mind is made up, I'm going to prayer meeting tonight. No doubt everyone's going to want to know where I've been and what I've been doing, and I can't very well say, "Oh you know, manic depression, drug binge, losing faith, same old same old." So...meh. You know, you guys know a lot more about me and my mind than anyone I really KNOW. *Enter witty and clever closing statement here*

I will continue praying for you as I know many on here will do as well. I hope you have a good Christian counselor / therapist you can talk to.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
