    Hi Epi! Yes, agreed that our safety around the Lord is all to do with humility and a healthy fear of Him. In and of myself, there is nothing at all to be "proud" of other than knowing Christ. Yet there is a pride that does not want others to see how weak I am in body and in spirit. IRL for...

    adjective, adverb US informal US /ˌkæt̬.əˈwɑːm.pəs/ UK /ˌkæt.əˈwɒm.pəs/ (also cattywampus, US/ˌkæt̬.iˈwɑːm.pəs/ UK/ˌkæt.iˈwɒm.pəs/) badly, awkwardly, or in the wrong direction: The script is spoiled by its catawampus rhythms and its lack of consistency and plausibility. I didn't need...

    "catawampus" lol...MUST be a "Maryland" saying, I just say "whackadoo" :D Understood Jen, Trust is key...and we just will never please Him without faith/trust. "I believe, help thou my unbelief"!! Of course I do believe and trust in Him yet, one word of complaint in my mind or out my mouth...

    Speaking to Him is mostly in my mind, silently...unless in fervent prayer with tears! THEN my pleas are out loud. Boy, patience is hard for some things yet, I know we get no where without it. Just want to learn and live His commands and one day hear "Well done, good and faithful servant"...

    Funny how we can truly trust Him yet, become impatient and that IS me sister. Trying to overcome this through Him daily. Okay, this will be prayer for myself every day until He opens my eyes and understanding...I won't get a lobotomy :D Also funny how someone like myself, high strung, speaks...

    Always am asking Him for clarity and understanding...every. single. day. Maybe I burned too many brain cells with all the bad living I did B.C. hmm..could be! Probably why I can no longer remember dreams too...dunno! It's okay, when God wants to open something up for my understanding I trust...

    To Whom shall I speak

    "...of course the Bible is not the Word of God we are preaching nor the Word of God which gives us more faith. It is the rhema word (an utterance His personally gives us) that gives us faith that He is there. His thoughts are not our thought, even His thoughts on His creation." Hi Karl, I do...

    My coworker

    I feel for her too brother, and what your boss said about her was uncalled for but, what else to expect from the world? Yyes, I will pray for Monica as well as your boss. It's good that you find compassion for her, Jesus would have too :)
