Hey, I will call you tonight. I think I have an idea to unstuck you. The glue release takes along time tho. So you will still feel stuck, but the advice thing, and him feeling like an analysis specimen.....
As he is opening up to you, BE STILL. No advice. He is a man who wants to be trusted. He is looking within himself for the answers to his problems, and he is mustering all the courage and trust of himself that he can, and he has to do it on his own power and initiative.
All you can do to bring him closer to you is listen. The most you can say is, " I trust you to find your way".
That consistently applied will unstuck you. (spellcheck made me change it. I thought it was funny) He needs lots of experience, consistency with "Jeanette with no advice" before you will see the results.
No advice. Just listen. Admire and trust him to find his way.
Get out of the way for God to work.
That is how you will get unstuck!!!!!!!
BTW, please do not ask Jeanette about my sordid little story from this weekend. She will not tell. She knows it all, but will not tell.
