Thanks! God bless you too!

People may strongly disagree with each other here but anyone who gives personal insults is breaking the terms of service. Feel free to report them or put them on 'ignore'.

Yes, although he technically did not consider himself a Christian. He didn't believe he was elect. Anyway, Ive been told that based on 1 John 8, I wasn't saved for even claiming a person could stop sinning. My goal is to stop sinning. And I know Ill get attacked for that. But oh well.

Feeling alive this morning

If I could, Id walk outside every day. But with a baby and a less-than-walkable neighorhood, its not always possible. I tend to park in the back of parking lot to get extra steps in. Today I really feel like moving and exercising. I can do a lot at home because I don't have any neighbors below...

Back up to 10 pushups at a time!

Hi, I am a staff member but not the same as a moderator in the sense that I can use forum disciplinary measures. The encounter team was chosen to be an example of good practice. There are three of us but the rest of the moderators should be able to help you, especially if you click the report...

We are saints. In Christ, we are to die to sin, according to Romans 6:1-13.

Ive decided Ill make the greatest difference in the world by faithfully loving my husband and children at home.

Ive been meaning to look at these. Music can minister to me in huge ways

1 John 4:17 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

A true pro-woman movement would give more honor to all Moms, including those raising children alone, than feminism. But I don't think being a single Mom is like being a man because it's not the same experience. A single Dad's experience will be different than that of a single Mom. If you quote...

Welcome back! How's it going?

I'd like to get in shape too. My first goal is to get up to 50 pushups without stopping. Then, be able to do handstands. I plan to do this at home. Im not a big gym person. I am in an ongoing weight loss journey. Slow and steady. After pregnancy, I somehow got below my pre pregnancy weight. At...

I feel like a truly pro-woman movement would support pregnancy resource centers rather than protest against them. They'd advocate for more support for moms who face challenges, promote and honor domestic skills, etc. But instead feminism envy's traditions masculine roles and even bad...

God, please help me to do what's right at all times. Thanks @Ghada. Happy posting!

I read Psalm 37 to baby Naomi today. It is about trusting the Lord. I am feeling encouraged to trust the Lord and not be afraid of what I face.

Thank you for praying! I feel a higher sense of responsibility and spiritual warfare but I had a great weekend and today has been wonderful. I appreciate the prayers, advice, and encouragement. The baby is sleeping away at the moment and I got some major housework done. Now it's time for a...

Agree that feminism has failed to make women happier. To keep it brief, the Bible says women are to be "keepers at home" and feminism tries to undermine that by teaching us to compete with men. Meanwhile, we are becoming less desirable to men for marriage because feminism encourages sleeping...

Will pray for you but be careful when you tell God you can't live with or without something--- He tends to challenge us on that. He desires to be the only thing we can't live without and will have us go without what we think we need in order to rely on Him more. Anyway, praying now.
