Obviously, my plans are not God's plans, I am now in deep sorrow, as nothing is coming to fruition as I hoped it would. I Guess I am still in the trial in the wilderness and I have failed, and have fallen victim to my own hopes and dreams. Please pray for me. How long wilt thou forget me, O...

I am what I am by the grace of God. Humility comes with the understanding that we do not do anything to merit or earn the grace of God, thus we become stewards of that grace to others who have not received this free gift. When we preach the Gospel, those who hear it are either convicted by the...

But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand. (Isaiah 64:8) In Your hands, Oh Creator of heaven and earth, is our life. You mold us and make us to be who you want us to be in this short time on this earth, The clay has no power...

Thank you, LORD, for giving me this passage just now! You know how many years of affliction I have lived through.... You will restore the years of the locust and the cankerworm.... That all will know you are in the midst of your people.

Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil. Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children. And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the...

Thank you both for these words of advice, they are heaven sent. Right now, I am in a time of waiting on the LORD, and placing my confidence in the LORD, I cannot force his hand, but I know what he has shown me, and I know he is the one that will carry this out, I Just have to wait and trust in...

If our confidence is in the LORD, can we be overconfident? BTW, just curious but what is the "encounter team" first time I have seen that banner.

God has a sense of Humor like this sometimes.... ask Hosea the Prophet. As the Old James Bond movie was titled "never say never again"....

He will lead you to the right ones someday, there are many souls crying out for love.

Yes, there are numerous men that use this topic as a means to rule over their women. Gives Women a bad taste in their mouth for marriage. Rightly understood it is about loving and submitting to that love, and this is how God ordered it, men are the first actors. I agree

A man's love for a woman is full of respect, they are the first actor in that love, she can either submit to that advance or reject it by refusing to submit to it. One action draws the woman and man closer to one another, the other is a woman playing hard to get and manipulating and using the...

My two cents on this subject.... Husbands love your wives, wives submit to the Love of the Husband. For a Godly Husband this is not a matter of control and submission in the sense of enslavement, and subservience, but of one of love and receiving that love and drawing near to one another. The...

I Do not know why but The proverbial quote from the Rock band Pink Floyd came to mind here... "If you don't eat your meat you can't have any pudding, How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat." I Know they were mocking this mentality in that song, so I am not condoning their music...

Though I like in general most of the points you make here, your understanding of justification is not within the definition of justification. Justification is a just judge (Jesus Christ) saying we are worthy of salvation, not by our own effort, but by the blood of the lamb. Although redemption...

The LORD has placed someone in my life that is a newborn believer that has had a rough hard life, It is a trial of patience but through it all I know God's love for that person is being shown through me.... I am by no means a perfect vessel for this love but through this he is bringing growth...

I Love how Paul shows here that this Patience we learn then leads us to be vessels of spreading the love of God to others.... Reminds me of 1 corinthians 13, "Love is patient". (1 Corinthians 13:4)

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience...

My Morning reading just had these verses which were relevant to this post. I need to hear them too... Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake...

So the Spirit of Truth is no longer at work in this world revealing to the saints what He is shown, that ended with the death of the Apostle John? (John 16:13)
