It seems you have played quite a significant part in your family afterall, you rose above your circumstances, your faith saved you! Your life sounds wonderful and full. "Comfort builds apathy, and adversity builds strength and character, and most of all, reliance upon the Creator." For sure...

:D

Hoping for an update on @"ByGrace" she had the ear thing done today. We love and miss you Helen, have not stopped lifting you in prayer... xoxo

I'm so sorry to hear of your lousy childhood or should I say - lack there of? Best decision you ever made was to remember that bible! :) God has blessed you abundantly, and surely will continue to, as that is what a Good, Good Father does ❤ In Him always, nancy P.S. Why not write a book...

The only objection I have with staying in a marriage "for the children" is that if the unbelieving spouse is abusive then, the children are learning that too. The saved spouse can leave her husband/wife, not necessarily to seek divorce, but can live apart from the abuser to protect her/his...

Agreed. Yet, I would add that before any prayer, are we not to acknowledge His majesty, His Holiness?

Awesome share John! Often wondered if it was a Wednesday and not Friday that Jesus was crucified...hmmm, much to ponder in your post, thank you!

Hi GG, I have often wondered about that verse too. What I get from the NT is that if a Christian is married to an unsaved spouse, they should stay married and the saved one. 1 Peter 3:1 - "Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also...

Hi 4 Jesus! I knew I was misspelling Mosque as it did not look quite right, thank you for pointing that out! Yes, my thoughts also, as far as the Islam connection. When I worked there I of course, did not understand the connection as I was very young. My Aunt and Uncle were very high up in...

Many years ago, my dad tended bar at what was called the Shriner's Club, The Ismalia Temple or the Mosk. At one point, he was wanting to join but backed out at the last minute...my guess is that he did not have the wealth enough to be included. But, he also said there was a lot of secrecy...

What did Jesus mean when he said, “Upon this rock I will build my church”? The name Peter (Gk., Petros) means “rock” or “rock-man.” In the next phrase Christ used petra (upon this rock), a feminine form for “rock,” not a name. Christ used a play on words. He does not say “upon you, Peter” or...

Hi Grams, There are many Catholics in my neighborhood, I know many of them. Some, are obviously Catholic in name only and do not do the things Jesus commanded us, nor do they know anything about the bible...lot's of Protestants like this too. Then, I consider a few of my friends who are...

Migraine!

Hi Grams, These ole bodies of ours were meant to wear out, and the older I get, the more I experience it. BUT!!! God will give us new bodies that will never age :) We'll be able to jump, run, dance as much as we want without pain!!! ❤ God bless and keep you :)

Welcome to the site Mutt!

Ahaha...I can see that happening so well, it is so funny they do not know their own sizes! One of mine, when she wants to play will paw my hand and one side of her mouth stretches back and her tail is going nuts! I would say it is her version of a smile :D

Nancy said: ↑ "And afterward, I will pour out My Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions." Many see this as today. I am not settled on the fact as yet...like, could this not have been what happened in Act's?"...

Without His Word, we would be flailing about even more so than we already do. For our minds to be sound and focused we follow The Word. And since without it, we will have no faith as, "faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God" Romans 10:17...and if we have no faith then...we can...

Welcome to the forum @CovenantPromise!

Ya know what Pat, I think it has allot to do with "Sola Scriptura". And, I am totally a proponent of this, it's the complete Word of God and if something does not line up with scripture or edify the Church in some way, I have to question it. I need the order of being able to go to the single...
