Jasmine, It could be that the Lord has a very special purpose for you. Often, when a person feels as if s/he ''doesnt fit in'', its because s/he has been set aside by God for a particular reason. It might be that He wants you to be a prayer warrior, or to serve in some behind-the-scenes ministry. When the apostle Paul was describing the church as a body, he mentioned many of the body parts.. and part of what he said was that the body cannot function as a whole, unless even the unseen parts are participating. The fact that you are concerned that you think you are not contributing to the Lord's work even though you ''dont fit in'' tells me that you have a heart for serving Him in some way. I suggest you take it to Him in prayer, and ask Him to show you what it is He has prepared for you. It might be such a thing as being a prayer warrior or answering the phone at a crisis intervention center . Look at the things that interest you in the Lord, and see if He isnt calling you to minister in one of those areas. God bless you.

oops... I goofed... I interjected my post into what Dad Ernie had already said. My post was ''In Ecclesiasted 12:7 we read ''then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. ''

Now listen to a wizened old cookie baker... I probably have used every type of cookie sheet there ever was ... the one I prefer was made by my father in law out of airplane metal ... but that's another story... as for the wizdom: Pay attention, I will only say this once.... it may be frustrating when your cookie sheet goes ''boing'' and warps... but unless it pitches the cookies into the fire at the same time,(yes this could happen ) there is really no harm done. Now, that having been said, heavier (that is to say thicker) cookie sheets do tend to ''boing'' less severely, but the real advantage to heavier ones is that they maintain a more constant temperature and you wind up with cookies that are done on the top and bottom fairly evenly. An alternative to purchasing the heavier sheets is to line the thin ones with parchment paper. This acts as an insulator, and also makes clean-up a lot easier. Dont use aluminum foil... its not the same thing.
