I can't think of anything. Seems we are always just above water in terms of covering needs, so to speak. Thank you, Cassandra. That's awfully kind :)

Not anymore. I just sing.

Ive seen them live! Thank you for the song!

What if your economic trial is because you obey God?

@Johann Thats a wonderful song. Reminds me of the friend who got me into southern gospel. It sure hits different now! I will add it to my playlist.

Will listen now. I like southern gospel groups

In a way, God is answering things I asked for. I asked to be close to Him like Moses. To have anointing. All kinds of things. I don't think the golden ticket Christians are necessarily refusing to carry their cross. We just need to be able to deal with the consequences of how much we want from...

I was the golden child. The coat of many colors daughter. Now Im in a long trial. None of that comfort and privilege is in my life now. I trust that God will use the wilderness for His glory and my good. At first Christianity improved my life in every way. Now Im answering the call to suffer...

Sometimes I get so tired of the steady stream of stress and trials, I would even take something extra bad happening just to have a change from this uncertain period. Im just stuck and almost everything nice, comfortable, fun, or convenient is out of reach. I'm stuck placed right above the...

Feeling risky in saying this but yes, attention is a huge craving. We are supposed to get it from our parents. We're supposed to get it from the Lord in the secret place. We're supposed to get it from our friends and spouses. Dressing provocative is like the super shortcut. But sometimes I try...

Curvy women can have a tough time. Especially in the growing up years. The thing is, I don't think you could avoid attention even if you were flat chested. I don't agree with those who say modest women should never draw notice. A modest pretty woman and an immodest pretty woman will both draw...

Unfortunately, thats true. Girls are looking up to Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, and Lizzo. How do you teach girls the value of discretion, modest behaviour, and dress in a world like that? I looked up to my Mom. I still do. She's a difficult act to follow. She has class and wisdom. I hope my...

Wish a lot of young women could hear what Godly men actually think of immodesty.

You didn't join a monastery. It's clearly a you problem. Not enough meditating in the empty hills.

I agree. There are so many things I thought men liked but did because other women promoted it. I was shocked at how many men hate makeup. The trends with fake hair, those pointy dagger nails, eyelashes that look like they can take flight...Im not sure that's entirely for the male gaze either...

Definitely plenty of ways to miss the mark. Not sure we need to look frumpy on purpose. But Id take that in a church setting over yoga pants or mini skirts. Not sure what men are supposed to do in situations like that. I don't envy the lack of immodest spaces today. The mall? The gym? Church...

Thanks Nancy! Love you, Sis!

When I was active on Facebook years ago, no posts got more likes and comments than selfies. Later, I looked at most of them and hated the look I saw in my eyes. They were hungry eyes. They demanded attention and admiration for the look. Although I had way less than a thousand, I couldn't help...

Am encouraged by many of the latest threads and posts. I see new members that are bringing great threads, questions and discussion. LPraying that God will get glory and His will out of this forum, despite it's flaws.

Praying now
