"I totally lost all credibility last September"



I totally lost all credibility last September.
I wrote to every Christian that I had known over the years.
I wrote about all the apparent things that were supposed to have happened last September.
Then things did not happen like it looked like they would.
I think that they lost total confidence in anything that I would say or write after that.
Some were people whom I had discipled, mentored, or taught.
How many may now consider me a false prophet, I don't know, and I'd rather not ask.
I read Steve Coerper's excellent letter on November 15th:  Thoughts on "False Prophet"
That helped me from falling into absolute & total despair.
I have been very discouraged from writing to all those people.
I think that discouragement has led me to not wanting to write to Five Doves for a long time.
However, I do go to Five Doves each week and read, but I've been unable to write.
Am I the only one to whom this has happened?
Or are others discouraged, after September didn't pan out like many of us thought?
Is anyone else discouraged over letting others know about it, only to be ashamed now?
If I'm alone in this, then please rebuke me, and then if you could, encourage me.
If I'm not alone, then others may need encouragement even more than I.
Thank you,
Gino
