    How about this... Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, a peck of pickled peppers peter Piper picked... and so forth.

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    In the next verse [James 5:16] it says that the "effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much" and so it does. What I have understood is that our prayers can cause a person's heart to open so that he/she hears indeed. But this is assuring that she does not miss the opportunity to be...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    Salvation is a word most of us who have ever attended church learned early. This is so regardless of the doctrines/views/denominations involved. Most pastors/priests/teachers put a lot of emphasis on it and so do their audiences. Probably over 20 years ago I heard a message from a preacher who I...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    It certainly did and even now in small ways or even large one it is still changing. The topic of salvation is one of the ones definitely changing in me more recently and now... My old pastor who I visit every Wednesday morning unless he is out of town has some wonderful stories to relate but...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    Yes, I know this very well. When the idea of checking out according to own timetable gets to be too favorable in my own mind, I know it is time to talk to the Lord some more.

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    My memory is slipping quite a bit. I used to always lean heavily on my wife because her memory was always so good, then when she started missing things, I knew we were both in trouble. LOL. I am trying to be honest. I don't remember our discussion on tongues, but then again I don't remember...

    Paul from Pennsylvania was a pious old... "____". [Sorry had to edit that one. [It was what Kathryn Hepburn called her husband, Henry Fonda in the movie "On Golden Pond" ]

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    I am with you here. Sometimes I want it all to beover... and when I talk like that to my wife she rebukes me. Yes, I say, I know, the choosing that time is definitely mine to do. Nevertheless when I have days of physical pain and I am tired but cannot sleep, it is easy to laps into wrong ways...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    Thank you for softly spoken words from another view point. I really like to hear them, to listen to them, to understand them. Some people cannot do that without the harshness, the sarcasm and the attack mode. There are unfortunately some on here I seldom ever talk with... because they don't...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    Thank you for this post. I read something in your words that also was enhancing the black eye I'd already been giving to myself. I try to avoid discussing [arguing?] this issue very much because while I do stand on one side, quite a while ago the argument from the other side became clearer to...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    It is only through God's mercy that any of us have hope at all. Because of His love for us, He had mercy on us and sent open the Way that was closed to mankind since their first carnal parents were put outside the garden of Eden. The paragraph which both @Helen and you stumble on is one which...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    When my wife's brother died her other brothers in California offered her a proportionate share of the ashes. She declined. When my mother died with an Oregon residence, my brothers in Oregon offered me a proportionate share of the ashes. I declined. I had a friend once who kept his wife's...

    So what the hell you doing with your life

    As all of us were before Jesus paid the price and before we accepted and received what He brought we were unable to endure the fire as the strongest of Nebuchadnezzar's soldiers were unable to live when they approached the fiery furnace in Daniel 3. Jesus came provided the means for us to...

    Please note that I was not disagreeing with you but adding what I saw within the same verse.

    The Numbers 12 and 13, Fertility, The Zodiac, Religion, Time and Music’s Common Thread

    I am no expert on this but I had a good friend who was quite knowledgeable. I fear that he has passed on now as I have not heard from him in a few months and the last time I heard from him he did have a terminal cancer. Let us remember him or his family in prayer also. He wrote what amounted...
