I'll miss your friendly laid back posts but I understand. God leads me away from forums and social media too at times.

Greats of history do good on a large scale and we remember their names. It's so like me to run ahead of God and want to do something big. What if the Lord has called me to a quiet life? What if I died to my dreams to come alive to Christ in total obscurity? What if my calling is to wipe...

Self effort is attacked on this forum a lot. It's as if anything we do could threaten our "resting in the finished work of the cross" and thereby threaten our salvation. Does this make sense? Is there even a way to avoid all self-effort besides comitting to doing nothing every day? And if its...

Nice to meet you. Welcome!

I know people who are fine being open about their mental illness. I have admitted to having one but I don't really like talking about the diagnosis, symptoms, or direct effects on my life. I find that people have a hard time understanding, seek to overstep in their advice and speak in the...

It was after I decided to follow Jesus but I wasn't going His way at the time. Id rather not give details on the outcome but it involved her getting in trouble and being at fault.

I'm not sure when and how much to correct if it is unwanted. I know I didn't always like hearing correction but it was true. What Ive learned recently is that there are different types of heart conditions that are like soil. If someone is the hard soil, then your seed of faith won't be...

Great video and message. There's this song by Switchfoot called This Is Your Life and there are lines like This is your life And today is all you've got now And today is all you'll ever have I try to use this as a reminder to stay in today.

Living by the fruit of the Spirit may be one of those things that is easier understood by living it out.

I would say if its a dream, that makes it less real. Sorry, I don't know how to make it any deeper than that. I guess you'd call that a fail.

Thank you for this. Good point about speaking in tongues without agape love. In my church we speak in tongues but we are taught to walk the walk as well. But I've also been to churches where it was all about the tongues but very little fruit.

It depends. We are to correct those inside the church not outside (1 Peter 4:17) so spiritual criticism is for believers. A wife can win her husband without a word (1 Peter 3:1) and its best for a wife to not nag her husband about his walk with the Lord but be a Holy example. I think at...

Is that Gohan from Dragon Ball Z?? I suppose I like the first picture best.

To be honest, Id just be in shock for a minute. Probably looking a bit dumbfounded. Id be really angry but Im not an aggressive person. One time I let another woman punch me and win the fight because I knew the outcome would work in my favor.

It could be anyone, Jesus included. I'll go first. I've been married to my husband for 7 years. Shout out to all the married people out there. He is a better person than me. He bears with more, sacrifices, and works hard in a quiet way, without drawing attention to it. He forgives easier...

Praying now. Lord, please help Angelina keep this elderly lady alive. Please preserve the woman's life until her daughter can see her in Jesus' name.

I remember reading yours in the testimony section and liking it. I wrestle with being selectively open about some things in my life while skimming the parts I don't like. Its the parts I dont like that might be the most encouraging.
