@April_Rose Some places don't use robes; if the person is okay in pants (or trousers they call them in England).

@April_Rose I love Philippians! :)

@Pearl So memorable, I'm sure, right? :)

@Pearl I'm sure this is true of all of us. I like what Paul says: "Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high...

@Pearl PS: Ppl do use numbing cream; tattoo parlors can advise; in the end it depends on how strongly the person wants to do it, really. Although in some areas it's apparently getting really rather customary for more mature ladies to do it, it depends a great deal on the area, really and on how...

@April_Rose John 3.16...:)

@Pearl True; this shows why it's so important for younger and older Christians to spend plenty of time in Scripture reading and prayer, doesn't it?

@Pearl Your daughter, of course, is a fair bit younger; she anyway must have thought doing it is a really nice thing now for a lady to do.

@Pearl Indeed, calls for the use of the whole armour of God in Ephesians 6, right? :)

@Pearl A quote I managed to dig up... :)

@April_Rose Thanks for your poll vote!

@Pearl Reminds me of the Scriptural sentiment from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress: "Thus far I did come laden with my sin; Nor could aught ease the grief that I was in, Till I came hither. What a place is this! Must here be the beginning of my bliss? Must here the burden fall from off...

@Pearl That's a really nice, well thought out tattoo design, isn't it? ( :) Whether it just remains a design or is actually done.)

@Pearl I do love Hebrews 13.20-21: "Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his...

@Pearl New Testament books such as Acts and Ephesians show particularly that what you say is indeed true, about the church now comprising people from many backgrounds.

@April_Rose Just go to show, anyway, the sheer value of daily prayer and Bible reading so that our attention and thoughts are fixed in a Godward direction... :)

@April_Rose It can also make for good Christmas presents, really...

@April_Rose There's no need even to think about those things, of course. I do love Philippians 4.8, which encourages us in all the profitable things that we can indeed think about, and which can be a great blessing: "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest...

@April_Rose ; @TheslightestID Thanks for your poll votes!

@April_Rose Well, the believer in the Lord Jesus can indeed know assurance; John's First Epistle and Romans 8, for example, are full of assurance to the seeking, believing reader.
