It really is all about the Lord and not us. He reveals His glory when we are weak.

God you are greater, you are higher, you are stronger than any mountain I face. You are the living God. Your Spirit gives us power. You are high and lifted up. You are a waymaker! You still heal, deliver, and save! Your power is all around. You are Holy! Your name is great and worthy to be...

I can feel right now that You, Lord, have carried me. You are carrying my burdens. Im never sinking alone because You lift me up. You send me help when Im weak. I can feel that Im not alone and that your love for me is great. You are greater than any challenge I face. You give me sustaining...

God, Im weak in body and weak at times in my resolve not to sin against you. You are strong. It's really all about You, Lord. You give me strength to keep going and to carry on. You encourage me to not give up, to not grow weary in doing good. You are able to do exceedingly and abundantly...

I have the utmost respect for my parents. Especially my Mom. I believe she pushed college hard out of love and not for any bad reason. I can say I wish she hadn't pushed college so hard but that would never take away her being a good Mom in my eyes because she gave her best.

Am not sure how to answer. Ive experienced intense spells of mental illness. I still hold myself accountable for bad decisions I made during those times. Its odd but I was still "me" during those times. And taking responsibility brought the most healing of myself and others. Im sure others...

I forgot to mention pilates! They have pregnancy pilates on YouTube! Great for stretching and getting baby in a good birthing position.

Not much of a gym girl. My favorite exercises are in order. 1. Walking 2. Dancing 3. Simple strength training at home and pushups Walking is underrated. I love to get in extra steps by parking in the back of supermarket parking lots. On my way, I like to think about how grateful I am to be...

I appreciate your perspective because you are sharing based on what you've lived, not just assumptions. If you agree or disagree, I still want you to feel comfortable sharing. I do think there are challenges to living on a single income. Likely more now than in the past. I cannot spend like...

This is honestly the best argument for pushing women towards college. That if the husband dies or leaves, women need a way to survive and college is the way to do that. This is why my own mother pushed me to go to college. But my problem with pushing women to go to college and have careers on...

I am a minimalist in my home except when it comes to scrapbooking. I save pretty magazines, paint samples, birthday cards, and junk mail in a stash

Wow. Big difference!! Im sure you could work that off over a summer or something.

I don't think Calvinists are wrong about everything. But you talked about the 5 points. I don't believe grace is irresistable. I don't believe Jesus only died for the elect. I am iffy on total depravity, and perseverance of the saints has turned into "once saved always saved" which I definitely...

Sounds refreshing There's a lot of 'theology' denying that there's any effort in our salvation. Good works? Self-righteousness. Willful sin? Covered by grace. Effort? Oh, that's works. Just trust in the finished work of the Cross...whatever that means. Wait, you mean I have to live right? I...

The Law. Specifically the Law of Moses.

I think both can be true. When we see our wickedness and it breaks us and makes us truly sorry, God accepts that heart.

"For God so loved the world"... 1 John 2:2 KJV 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. I don't think Scripture backs up Calvinism. Prayers, prayers, and more prayers for you.

Had to think about this one. I do wish I had the courage not to cave to pressure. I acknowledge I should have spoken up and been honest about not wanting to go to college. I still think there shouldn't be so much pressure.

I really like this comment and your love for God!
