If you figure out what he is saying, and from where he is receiving his inspiration, let me know. I do not want to appear judgmental of him, but I am very concerned with some of his comments. And, then, at times, he posts a comment that is logical, readable, and in keeping with the Gospel of Christ. It's the "other times" that concern me.

I never thought I'd get old.
I never thought I'd get over the hurt in my life.
I never thought I'd be "good" enough for God.
I never thought I'd be able to change.
I never thought I'd be happier in my 60's than my youth
I never thought I'd have the peace and joy I have now.
Thank God for Jesus and the Holy Spirit who changed my nevers.

Being abused by my dad
Having endometriosis (endo) and knowing I'll never have a child.
Nearly dying at the hand of my dad.
Almost dying with a hole in my intestant.
Suffering lung damage
Going thru a total of 5 surgeries
Being attacked by someone.
I don't know how to say it's changed me. I'm still coping or at lease trying to. Its hard, real hard. Still learning to deal with things. Even making this post is difficult for me.

I am so glad delivered you from all of that and I can understand your mistrust of people. People are people and all fallible, but remember that we are also called to think the best of our brothers and sisters. Be wise, but also try to be positive. I know that can be extra hard for someone who has been through what you have. I hope and pray God will bring you to a good, peaceful place.
I never thought I'd break a bone or get stitches. I've never broken a bone, but I cut my thumb so bad it would never close up without stitches. I thought that was a fluke, but then I cut my other thumb, and needed stitches. And again, 3 times is needed stitches in my thumbs.
I never thought I would have a prayer not come true- a prayer that I had no second doubts about. For example, I've prayed to own my own house, but even though I believed it was in accordance with God's Will, I second guessed myself if I was right. But for things I never second guessed, I never thought it wouldn't happen.
For years my prayers always 'worked'. I never took advantage of it, nor could I because of my conscience sake- in order to be a real prayer my conscience had to be in check. I prayed I'd have a boy- I had a boy. I prayed I'd have a girl- I had a girl. I prayed my son would live- and even though they told me he would be severely physically and mentally handicapped, and probably not even make it through the first week, there was never a doubt in my mind. He wasn't handicapped at all, and he's soon to be 27.
Up until 2 years ago, my prayers had never failed once. Then my son was telling me about the dangers of his job, and I said "No worries, I pray for you to be safe." And the very next day he worked he got majorly hurt. His teeth got busted out while he was up on an electric pole. I'm glad he at least didn't fall, but was able to climb down, wish he would have been in a bucket truck.
For the first time ever, my faith got violated. But when the smoke cleared, my faith still stands. Still, I don't understand. I felt like Eijah asked for fire from heaven, and got nothing. I still can't make sense of it. The only difference I can think of is that I had finally came to the point in my life that I wasn't going to be anyone else's victim. I'm still going to do the Christian thing, but remove myself from abuse. If I keep being a doormat, letting people walk all over me, they will kill me, is that what He wants?

PS. 147:3.
He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.
ISA. 30:26.
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold,
as the light of seven days, in the day that The LORD bindeth up the breach of his people,
and healeth the stroke of their wound.
89:21.
With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.
24.
But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.
COL. 1:11.
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
11TIM. 4:17.
Notwithstanding The Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching
might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear:
and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.

Never thought id chip my tooth on a popcorn kernel, I would always just crunch on them, and never really pay much attention because i would just assume teeth are stronger than a kernel.. until that fateful day i bit down on one so hard it actually punched a hole in one of my molars.. yea it changed my perception.. some popcorn kernels are really really hard.
I never thought God would save me, change me, guide and direct me, and give me such peace and assurance, when I was young and lost.
I never thought I would get so sick and be in so much pain. I figured a high pain tolerance would exempt me from pain, instead, it was my downfall. Kind of like pride, I guess!
I always wanted children, but I never thought God would give me 4 wonderful children, and 4 grandchildren, with another on the way in the next few weeks. Children are a blessing from the Lord! And that includes pregnancy! That was a blessing, because it brought my children.
I never thought God would call me to seminary, not once, but twice! I am so grateful He is the God of second chances! I am so grateful for this entire journey with Christ, from the moment God saved me, to each moment today!
